Imagination

Imagination during meditation is not ‘nothing’ as it is energy that can be controlled and used in a positive way. Meditation on the forms and beauty in nature can awaken us to the fact that none of us live isolation, and that all function is inter-function. Meditation on the symbiotic relationship between plant and the Sun; even the prolific daisy or buttercup can awaken the intuitive faculty as to the interrelationship between Sun, stars and plants. To help relieve stress or the boredom of being confined to one space, imagine that you merge with the spirit of the wind, and blow freely across vast oceans, dance with the waves, explore new lands and whisper time away among the trees. Then rise high on ascending warm air until you stand at the edge of space and capture the spirit of freedom that blows across the aeons of time and space. The brain does not often recognise the difference between that which is real and that which is imagined. Therefore the feeling of a successful meditation or relaxation can be committed to memory and be recalled to help by- pass the tensions associated with stress.
