Meditation when
properly understood is the stilling of the physical body,
generally in a position where the spine is straight and
erect, sitting up, not lying down.

You should define a
place of meditation that is fairly comfortable as to
temperature
and where you are not likely to be disturbed.
An ambiance or atmosphere of the spirit should be cultivated
around it if possible.
When you sit to
meditate,
you must come to feel that you are about to
have a
conversation with your God, your Higher Self, and nothing
less.
You should approach meditation as you approach the altar of
invocation - with humility, awe, respect, great love and
gratitude.
In-Breath Meditation
Method for Profound Spiritual Growth
With the proper
attitude, approach and place, we suggest the following
meditation procedure:
1. Sit in a
comfortable posture with your spine straight.
You may sit in the traditional yogi's meditation position or
straight up in a comfortable chair.

2. Invoke the
Violet Flame of Protection by intending to do so.
3. Begin to
breathe deeply and honour the breath that is yours to draw
in and to exhale.
And with each breath, realize that you are drawing in pure
life and light.
4. As you
breathe deeply, initially focus your attention in the head
area, the top of the head in particular.
Become aware of your own aura.
5. Then become
aware of and focus on the entire length of the spine, as you
remain conscious of the rhythm of your breath.
Breathe in, breathe out.
6. Now, release
the attention on the breathing and let it continue at the
proper pace by itself.
7. Focus all
your attention on the entire length of the spinal column and
hold the attention there.
Visualize the length of the spine as a tube of pure white
light.
8. See the tube
of light as a doorway that is slightly ajar. On the other
side of the doorway is much light.
The doorway, the lit spinal column, is now a lovely
dimensional doorway into your inner space.
9. You begin to
have a desire to go into it, for it is indeed a doorway.
It is a dimensional opening in the physical body. You seek
to go in it. You have the will to go in, and in, and in.
You must will yourself to go in, not unlike the salmon that
constantly keep swimming upstream against the current that
keeps beating them back. But they don't stop.
Use your will to constantly go in.
10. As you
meditate in this way, you will hit at some point, a
landmark, so to speak.
You'll know what it is by the sheer experience of it.
If you think you cannot go any deeper, you should keep
trying until you cannot go any more.
At this point, stop and simply enjoy the inner surroundings.

11. Seek to
become aware of the inner atmosphere as the breath continues
to inhale and exhale at its own steady pace.
12. Seek to
know yourself as you are, beyond thoughts, feelings,
sensations and certainly physical bodies.
Every session will be anew adventure.
13. Seek to
know the part of you that has never changed, and shall never
change, the part of you that is eternal.
Seek to feel your own endlessness.
This may seem like a
basic approach to meditation but we assure you that if
properly followed, it will lead you to inner breakthroughs
of the type that most people so much want to experience, but
are so unaware of how to.
