Ah! To be a Child Again! A Meditation
Before we were indoctrinated to the rules of the word, with its entire do's and don'ts, we were actually very receptive. We were willing to try new things, go into forbidden places and take risks without hesitation. We did not believe in unhappiness, defeat, rejection or lack. We asked for what we wanted and were willing to demand that it be provided. We thought the world existed to respond to our needs. It might do us well to revert back to the ways of childhood if we want to bring some good into our lives. It's not the temper tantrums or childish outburst we want. It is the openness and freedom from limitation we need. We have been taught to accept fear, lack sorrow and restriction as a part of everyday life. We are afraid to make demands of life because we believe we can't have what we want. We no longer feel free to express what we feel, when we feel it. Now, we want to be everyone's friend. If only we would think like a child again, there's a good chance we would find the freedom we gave up to become adults.
Just read through these words a few times in a meditative state. They are food for your soul. Then just sit in meditation and see, sense or feel whatever impressions, thoughts, feelings or images arise for you about you. Be receptive, objective and open!
Reading an inspiring passage and then just sitting with it in meditation is another form of meditation you may want to put into practice.
Besides this passage, find any inspiring passage you resonate with, read it and then just sit and see what happens! There are many ways to meditate and connect with your Source. Meditating on an inspiring passage is one I love to practice regularly especially when my mind is overly active.
