Total Duration: 31 minutes

This is a beautiful, natural meditation to center yourself.

Do not have any food or drink at least three hours before this meditation.

The meditation has two phases: whirling and resting.

Whirling:

Whirling is usually done in a counter-clockwise direction, with the right arm held higher, palm facing upwards, and the left arm lower, palm facing downwards.
If you are uncomfortable whirling counter-clockwise, switch to clockwise.

• Start whirling slowly, letting your whole body be soft and unresisting.
• As you whirl, the passing images will become blurred.
• Let them flow past.
• Don’t try to focus on anything. Focusing will make you dizzy or nauseous.
• Slowly pick up speed, and become the whirling.
• There will be action and movement on the periphery of the circle, but at the center you will feel stillness.

You will feel as if you are a witness to the whirling.

Resting:

• When you are whirling so fast that you can’t stay upright, your body will fall by itself. Don’t plan the fall.
• As soon as you fall, turn over onto your stomach so that your navel is in contact with the earth.
• Feel your body become one with the earth.
• Keep your eyes closed.
• Remain in the same position, passive and silent, for at least fifteen minutes.

After this meditation, remain silent and meditative for a few hours.
