Meditation of the Month: Soul Mate Meditation

In practising this meditation, anyone can become your soul mate! It helps you to become aware of your life from the soul level, as if you are a spectator in your own drama. When you practise it with a lover, it brings you directly into a state of profound oneness on the level of the soul.

Step one – 5 minutes

Sit opposite your lover, but do not touch each other. This is to allow your subtle energies to meet. Gaze into each other’s eyes and allow heat and longing for sexual intercourse to build up between you for about 5 minutes.

Step two – 3-5 minutes per chakra

Bring your awareness to your third eye. Imagine you have genitals there and are enjoying sexual union from your third eye. Let your body move, sway and make sounds, but do not touch. Your eyes may be open or closed.

Bring your awareness to your throat and imagine you have genitals there and are enjoying union. Next move to the heart centre and experience love-making from the heart. Enter the solar plexus. Feel your genitals there and make love. Express whatever you need to: roar like a lion, cry, or laugh! Move your awareness to your second chakra. Imagine you have genitals there and enter into energetic union.

Bring your awareness to your first chakra. Experience making love, from a distance, in the first chakra.

Step three – about 3 minutes

When you have made love in all your chakras, allow the energy gathered at the sex centre to rise in a spiral to the crown chakra. Let your body tremble and shake if it needs to.

Step four

Enter into circular breathing. You can breathe with your mouths open to help the process. As the woman exhales from her crown chakra, the man inhales her breath into his crown, allowing the breath to travel down through his body, and exhales from his sex centre. As he exhales from his sex centre, the woman inhales into her sex centre, letting the breath rise through her body, and exhales through her crown. Repeat this five times, creating five loops.

Now reverse the process. The man exhales from his crown and the woman inhales his breath into her crown, allowing it to travel down and be exhaled from her sex centre. The man inhales her breath into his sex centre, allowing it to travel up and be exhaled from his crown. Repeat this five times, creating five loops.

Step five

Next bring your awareness to a space above your heads. Allow yourself to sense one crown chakra hovering between you and above you. Enter into this one shared crown. Experience your separate energies merging into this one unifying space. Remember yourselves as one.

When you have rested in oneness for a moment, return to your body as male or female. Realise the quality of being separate is an illusory state of being – it is a fantasy you have created for fun! After a few moments, return to the reality of oneness above in your shared crown and rest there for some time. Return to your bodies and play at being man or woman, separate from oneness. Then return to the reality of oneness in the shared crown. Remember this feeling of being at home, of being whole. Re-enter your bodies playfully, as if you were watching a play.

Return to the reality of the one crown, one consciousness, which was there before birth and after death. Just for fun, enter into the body and experience duality. Return to the reality of oneness. Rest there for a longer time, remembering how it is to return to the source and be made whole. You are one with all that is, without beginning or end.

This time, as you enter the body, do not be deceived by it. Bring your remembrance of oneness into the body. Know the male or female body and the quality of being separate is just a dream that you are experiencing for fun.

Step six – 10 minutes

As a completion, lie down on your backs, allowing your hands to touch the feet of your partner. Rest silently. This will help you live on the physical plane with equanimity.
