Basic Meditation Practice
imagining the shining sun. If you find that your
mind wanders, you can bring your mind back by
repeating the mantra “Samma Arahang” along with
visualizing the sun. Repeat the mantra slowly and
silently, as if the sound of the mantra is coming from
the centre of the sun inside your abdomen. “Samma
Arahang" means if you purify your mind, you will
be freed from suffering in this life. Alternatively
you can repeat the phrase "clear and bright." Keep
repeating and visualizing it until your mind comes
to a standstill. Eventually, the sound of the words
will fade away.
If you have an experience that differs from seeing
the shining sun, do not get excited or emotional.
Treat it as though it is normal and simply accept it
as your own personal experience. Observe the im-
age without emotions. Eventually, your mind will
become more refined and seated more firmly at the
centre of your body. It may move further inside to
a place which is clean, pure, and bright. You will
gradually access deeper happiness and more pro-
found knowledge, going further into a succession
of increasingly pure knowledge. Eventually you
will reach the purest form, a universal form, which
is inside every human being in this world.
