Last night was rough for me.
I spent 15hours working. It was a very frustrating experience for me. What I didn't realize or remember in the moment, was that Anger is a root or brother to Desire.
I had a lot of desires last night: Desire to have dinner (which was delayed till 11pm) Desire to feed my wife Desire to make my wife happy (she was upset i didn't spend time with her) These obstructed desires ended in Anger. Anger, that I repressed, rather then transmute. So it created some stressful dreams for me last night, related to those I work with.
This morning, I sat in meditation, with new desires being birthed in my mind. I sat there, and thought of Paramhansa Yoganda. Then this idea came to my mind. It's a practice that I felt should be called "Desire Purging."
1. I start with the desire and think about it - not in a "you shouldn't desire" but more like embracing it for a moment.
2. Once the desire is felt in the body... feel the energy. Get in touch with it.
3. Now feel the energy of the Heart Chakra (if you have a hard time of that, you'll need to first open the heart and feel the energy there... that can be done in a variety of ways, which I won't go into detail here)
4. Now, on the In Breath, draw the desire energy from it's body location, into the Heart Chakra.
5. Now, feel the Third Eye Chakra - the point between the eyebrows... and on the Exhale, send the energy to the third eye. I like to visualize at my heart a pink lotus flower - in the center is the energy captured... and it shines like a beacon, the light/energy to the Third Eye Chakra.
I repeat this process... I go through a variety of desires. Desires could be monetary, sexual, or something as simple as desiring recognition at work. I'm going to continue this practice over the next few weeks.
