If you've not yet taken up the practice of meditation, I urge you to do so because it has so many documented health benefits, with new benefits being discovered on a regular basis.
Without further preamble, for a great fire meditation, we turn to the late Zen master Shunryu Suzuki, who tells us...
When you do something, you should burn yourself completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.Let's play with this meditation a bit, shall we?
To start, breathe deeply, pause for a second, and start centering your focus.
Repeat breathing and focusing three times or until you're deeply aware and intensely in the present moment.
When you're focused and centered in the moment, burn yourself and your ego and your petty concerns about this and that which are distracting you from the real you.
Breathe and let it all float up and away... like shimmering heat above the point of a flame.
Now, breathe again and feel the cool, calm peace that comes from burning yourself up completely, like a good bonfire.
Ah!
