Light
Meditation
©1997 Frank Sant'Agata
Guided
Visualization
These
meditations are best experienced by recording them on tape or
reading to a group
in a slow peaceful voice with pauses. It may be also helpful
to include soft, meditative
instrumental music in the background.
Visualize a tiny light somewhere in the distance. The light
may take any form you can imagine. It could be the glowing aura
of a candle, a light bulb, a flashlight, a streetlight, any light
that enters your awareness. Begin to move toward that light;
it may be clear, or obscured by a misty fog that creates an aura
around it. As you get closer and closer, the light becomes more
significant and more brilliant. Keep your mind focused on the
light and feel it growing brighter as you approach nearer and
nearer to it, now surrounding you entirely.
Imagine that the Holy Spirit is at the center of the light; and
so, all of the Wisdom and Holiness of God are also in that light,
which is presently glowing intense and white. Now move into the
center of the light and feel it enter your being, moving all
around and through you. Feel the presence of God's Love within
it, and realize it is your love. Feel the embrace of the
Spirit of God all around and through you. Surrender to the love,
and become one with it. Savor the presence of God, and feel His
warm embrace, as you connect with His Love. Understand it will
always be with you. Relax, knowing that you are One with Him.
Now, feel all the light that was surrounding you, and flooding
through you, begin to gather inside your being; as if you are
a magnet, pulling all that light inside, so that you become the
light itself. You are a being of pure light. You contain God,
the Holy Spirit, and the entire essence of love. Now, collect
all the light together, allowing it to focus in the center of
your heart--where it disappears from sight, but still glows with
the same intensity as before. It will burn brightly there forever
as it always has, but now you will be aware of it. Begin to slowly
renter the presence of this room, aware of the light that is
forever with you, and shows in your eyes as a gentle radiance--that
shows on your face as a relaxed loveliness--that shows everyone
you come into contact with, God's presence within you.
