[Unseeking Seeker]

Employing imagination
As valid affirmation
A wish granted before uttered
Flower petals upon our path scattered

We visualise the Kundalini like lightning
Not frightening but benign & enlivening
Shakti recognising 12 finger space geometry
Jumping chakra to chakra in instant connectivity

Root to navel to heart to throat to third eye to crown
Lightning fast jumps never looking down
Free of fear or desire or doubt or hesitation
Devoid of any ego borne precipitation

Hark!
Are we ready to leap in the dark?

Footnote for theoreticians

The interpretation thus in the scripture
The Sacral chakra does not feature
Jumping straight from the Muladhara
To the fiery Manipura

[Unseeking Seeker]

Here we get to a new visualisation
Chakras not six but twelve as of this computation
Root, sacral, navel, spleen, heart & throat
Plus upper palate, third eye, Guru & three at the crown afloat

This is an esoteric technique directly taught
So that errors into the practice are not brought
Involving mantra with inner light and focus in continuity
An energy path mystical not to be confused with Kundalini

The practice involves cessation of breath without breathlessness
Blurring boundaries between form & formlessness
Penetrating the dark void to get to Absolute Oneness

The Tantras have many such agamas
Direct initiations - to lower mind enigmas
Take this, if we will, as Krama + Spanda

[Unseeking Seeker]

For quick understanding, liken

Pratyabhijna to re-cognition
Krama to step by step progression
Spanda to vibration and
Kaula to celebration

Choose any path as of orientation

[Unseeking Seeker]

We imagine breath filling the entire Sushumna
In fullness from Muladhara to Sahasrara
Then along this locus
We get to one pointed focus
Between the eyebrows at the Ajna chakra
Pure awareness without thought stigma

Then the breath becomes more subtle
Not by focus but from loving devotion simple
Our attention then abides
In rippleless stillness resides
At the third eye zone
Fruits follow in timeless time of seeds sown

Within this visualisation leading to meditation
We retain single pointed focus by mental creation
Of a dam or an enclosure binding us at the Ajna
Attention subtler & finer drawing in by charisma
God Himself in Absoluteness
Vivifing our being in fullness

[Unseeking Seeker]

Are we in staid tranquility overjoyed
Both in manifestation as well as in the void
Do we continuously look at sensory impressions askance
Or does the mind-body hypnotically hold us in a trance

These are the silent reflections
The form vaporising questions
That this practice asks us to investigate
In a continuum of stillness thus meditate

This path of Pratyabhijna or re-cognition
Becoming our ever present orientation
Recognising Universe as vibrational no-thingness
Both void & manifestation God as the only Oneness

[Unseeking Seeker]

We shift attention to the Sahasrara and be there buoyed
Imagining within the vibrant void divine joy
Finally we see Everything as void-ness
Illumined by the That Oneness

In addition within the crown is a flaming light
Not imaginary but in reality shining bright
The divine revelation of self illumination
Arising by grace upon automatic breath cessation

Whilst thus in meditation
Knowing there is no limitation

[Unseeking Seeker]

Voids within the void and conduits within the central conduit
We keep refining sensibility with unwavering prayer resolute

The Sushumna is no doubt the central funnel
Throbbing with bliss, a divine enabled miracle

Yet this practice asks of us to visualise
That in time we may recognise
Cylindrical capillaries as carriageways of energy
Of divine electricity
Layered one inside the other
Finer & finer, subtler & subtler

Meditating thus on the imagined innermost channel
We go there and in innocence ask God for the miracle
Meaning that we vaporise and so be to become
As a bliss mist with the divine one

God being the way as also the means
This is the knowing from this practice we glean

[Unseeking Seeker]

With one pointed attention
We focus on the Ajna going into meditation
Preceded by physically closing ears, nostrils & eyes
With fingers of our hands that we may behold in surprise

The Bindu, the dot of light
Shining within, effulgence white

As in any practice we repeat again & again
No pain, no gain

[Unseeking Seeker]

We now get to a secret technique
Into which we are allowed a sneak peek

Eyes open we still our eyeballs with our finger
A comfortable pressure but pupils should not quiver

In trusting simplicity we let the light within arise
A flame self luminous known to sages wise

Then within stillness sedate
We let our attention oscilllate
Between the third eye-crown-Bindu & heart
The flame divine never departs!

[Unseeking Seeker]

A meditation on that that is as is
The unstruck sound accompanied with a bliss fizz
Within the heart
Is where it starts
In stillness & silence we may listen
To the inner sound current that glistens
Vibrancy
In constancy

In case we are yet not cognisant
If inner sense polarity is dormant
We may sit in silence listening to nature sounds
Waterfall, leaves rustling, laughter of children in a playground
The essence of this practice being make attention one pointed
Within the vibration cognised is realisation automatically granted
All the doing we do is to choose to dissolve in the current
The Absolute being instantly available in this moment
