Here in the west, we start out there in the world of matter and perhaps try and work inward to learn about consciousness and existence. In yoga philosophy they begin with consciousness and the mind and go out through the senses to the world of manifestation. Within this philosophy, consciousness is seen as far more real than the physical world. Our practice today will be two rounds of forty breaths of Kapala Bhati followed by seven minutes of alternative nostril breathing. Our meditation today will be twenty minutes long, and will fit very well with our lesson, as it is on space.
Space is the ultimate feminine energy.
If the Earth is our mother then space, the womb of all creation, is our grandmother. Sit in your meditation posture. Visualize the space within the atoms of your body. Now visualize this space dissolving into the space within the cells of your body. Imagine the cell walls dissolving and feel your body filled with space, like the heavens.
