This technqiue will briefly allow you to experience the feeling of what it means to be desireless and the peacefulness that comes into our hearts when we let go to come into perfect harmony with the present moment.
Here's what you will need:
1. A bath tub (preferably a deep cozy one)
2. A candle with a wooden wick
3. A match
4. Organic bubble bath (lavender is really nice)
5. A quiet environment
Instructions:
Plug up tub and fill with mildly hot water, add organic bubble bath, strike match and light wooden wicked candle, shut off lights, remove clothing and slip within the layers of the soft loving bubbles.
Now is when you realize why you needed a wooden wick - it sizzles. It doesn't just sizzle a little but like bacon burning in a pan. Similar to the way your desires are burning within you. When you constantly desire, you create worry over competition, fear whether or not you can be do or have it, anxiety and stress around all of it.
Recognize the water as the womb of existence and allow the bubbles to open up your feminine nature so you can be receptive and become one with the water.
For me, desire can be beautiful when you have faith in it. Put what you want out there and then let go of it. When you are ready to surrender to the present moment, take the candle and bring it close.
Focus your conscious awareness to the flame that burns in haste. Similar to a fuse soaked in lighter fluid, the flame of constant desire will quickly take you to the end of your life.
Desire without faith is a road of misery. The path that keeps us from the powerful intelligence within us that has all the answers for the life we want to experience. All of this power simply waits for you to become present with it.
When you have had enough of the worry within the flame, blow it out and allow the peace and profound quiet to immediately penetrate your heart.
In that brief moment, you will feel why you are working so hard to grow yourself. You are so intelligent that you know this is what you've been searching for - to feel this way all the time and to allow this powerful consciousness to be your guide for the Journey.
Enjoy!
