Becoming who you really are: a visualization
“Think of a world where everybody is using one hundred percent of his potential … then the gods will be jealous of earth, then gods would like to be born on earth. Then the earth will be a paradise.” (Osho, Courage)
Imagine what your life would be like if you didn't have THAT …
- Relationship pain
- Health problem
- Lack of money
- Job stress
- Boredom
- Frustration
- Anxiety, depression and anger
- That past that still nags at you
Imagine that you had none of these limitations, even though you were ninety or a hundred years old.
“Wonderful,” I hear you say.
“Impossible! ” you mutter under your breath.
And I acknowledge this is a most reasonable doubt. Are not these limitations part and parcel of being human? Certainly so. But they are not inevitably burdensome. If just one person can free of herself of the weight of limitation, then limitation is something each of us can learn to overcome. All over the world, people each day are sharing the secrets of how to do this.
But, even when you reach the peace and satisfaction that comes with overcoming constriction, you will discover that what we humans desire is an even grander destiny. What we really want is to feel fully alive, to be in charge of life, to have the joy and fulfilment of expressing our deepest and most wide-ranging potential.
But fulfilment can only be yours if you commit to learning “who you really are.” That phrase is a cliché in spiritual growth circles. What does it actually mean? Am I not, in all my confusion, worry and stress, already who I am? Of course you are. But the present you is a shadowed version of who you REALLY are. Or at least can be with courage and commitment.
Play with this visualization to sense what that Real You might be like.
Imagine a circle of bright light in front of you. Very sparkly, very clean. Imagine you stand outside that light on the edge of that circle. See yourself as you are now. Imagine your inner companions: the fatigue, the worry, the pressure, the sense of meaninglessness, the world-weariness, as drab and tattered clothes. See yourself bowed under the weight of struggle or conflict or panic.
Imagine that beside you there is your suitcase, bulging with documents that hold outdated ideas, fears, illusions, rigidities and delusions.
Imagine that someone comes to relieve you of this baggage. Imagine that you take off those grubby, smelly garments and those worn-out shoes.
Step into the circle of light. Naked or robed in white.
Feel the light washing over you. Sense it. Let it cleanse you, this liquid sparkling light
Absorb it. Enjoy it. Imagine the earth below you responds. She send her gentle nourishing energy up to meet that sparkling light. You are filled with dancing radiant light.
Now look around you. You are like a candle flame at the very centre of a faceted jewel. The facets have many colours, radiating out from you.
What are these colours? They are your strengths, your joys, your talents, your skills, your dreams, hopes and loves. Watch as the liquid light washes them clear of ingrained fear, old angers, self -doubt, objections, and self-denigration.
Now let the scene change. (You might like to do this part of the visualization at a later sitting)
Imagine yourself in five, ten or twenty years' time. Observe that your faceted jewel has opened out like the petals of a flower. The circle of light has turned into a world that is bright, vibrant, lively and kind. It is nourishing and friendly. Each facet holds a dream for yourself that has come true In this world you are safe. You are free. You are doing all those things you love to do well. You are surrounded by people whom you like, respect and love just as they like, respect and love you.
You are a total expression of all your inner potentials. There is none other like you. You are living as You Really Are!
