Only when we are calm can our wisdom arise. Our ancestors said it well: When things occur, think twice before you leap.
Compared to physical movement, contemplating is relatively calmer. Rarely do we think while running or arguing with others. Only when our mind is calm, our body feels peaceful and our rapid heartbeat slows down; chaotic noises subside. Thus, first silence yourself and your environment, so as to calm your mind. Inner serenity is like water in a bowl: Water becomes a mirror only when it is still. Right, our heart will become pure and peaceful.
Things may originally be unclear, but after the process of purification and condensation, everything becomes clearer and clearer. In this way, wisdom is achieved. In fact, obtaining the energy of Heaven, Earth and the Universe is also achieved through calming down. How can we best obtain energy? By being at ease and in peace.
Being easeful and peaceful is the best method of obtaining energy.
Let the body and mind calm down. Don’t be tense or deliberate. Be relaxed and at ease. Start from the crown of your head, your skull, and slowly relax. Listening to my voice, imagine it as a high-energy potion that melts
bones. Your bones are softening and relaxing. Rest assured there is no need to worry: “If I melt, how could I stand up?” It is just an image, a metaphor, a visualization allowing us to relax totally. It is for you to obtain stronger energy.
If the body is tense, it is hard for the mind to relax. So relax in both body and mind; that is how peace, calmness, and ease of body and mind are achieved. That is how our energy moves freely and we can obtain the greatest energy. The more easeful and peaceful we are, the more knowledge, energy, wisdom and auspiciousness we can gain.
The more easeful and peaceful our body and mind, the more knowledge, energy, wisdom and auspiciousness we can gain.
Experience The Meditation of Bone Melting; enjoy the calming energy.
