Hi there and welcome to when Souls Hang Out. This is Yogi Ray and, yes, I'm back after a long hiatus. Today we've got a meditation that I put up a couple of years ago, I think, on YouTube and it was just sitting there and I've decided to have a look at it and it had about 6,000 views and some comments etc. Good feedback and I thought just to start off, it's been a year since I started this podcast. Obviously not much content in the past seven or eight months, but there's plenty more coming. So while I'm getting other content together, I thought I'll put this one up.

Speaker 1:

So it's called a meditation from Psyche K and it's called asking the universe, and it's just about asking the questions to the universe. And when you're in a meditative state, you can actually hear the whispers coming back and they're the answers to the questions that you're asking. So it's quite powerful. So give yourself this gift and take this journey and just relax and enjoy this meditation of asking the questions to the universe, and you hear from me again soon. Just watch this space. Namaste, welcome to meditation, the Psyche K meditation of asking the questions to the universe. First of all, we're going to move into whole brain posture. You can do that sitting in a chair. As you would know from our sessions of Psych K, we can do it from laying on the floor in Shavasana, if that's where you're going to finish the meditation off. If you want to meditate seated, you can move into a seated position after the whole brain position, or you can stay in a chair or be flat on the ground. So getting that all organized now, now moving into the whole brain position.

Speaker 1:

So crossing the right ankle over the left, whether you're laying down or sitting, or left over right, whichever feels comfortable, and go with the first one that feels comfortable. And then, crossing the wrists over right over left or left over right, it doesn't matter which way you'll feel, which way is correct. Just bring the palms together, interlace the fingers and you can have the hands in the most comfortable position. As long as the wrists are crossed, as long as the ankles are crossed, you're in whole brain position. This will allow you to open up both hemispheres of the brain.

Speaker 1:

If you're stuck in the left hemisphere, meditation is almost impossible. You need that right hemisphere to allow you to move into this position. To hold that position, just work on allowing the relaxation process. There's nothing you have to do. If you feel that you need to cross over wrists or ankles, make sure you do so, but only if you're told that by your super conscious. Otherwise, just stay where you are, opening the right hemisphere and preparing for meditation and when you're ready, slowly start coming out of the whole brain position. And if you feel you need longer, you can either pause this meditation or you can go back to the start and allow more time in this position. But for the moment, get comfortable, whether you're seated in a chair or on the floor.

Speaker 1:

Continue that sequence of breathing In through the right out, through the left In through the left, the alternate nostril breathing.

Speaker 1:

Now, relax the breath, just focus on breathing through both nostrils as we move into starting out the internal dialogue in the universe. Be starting out the internal dialogue by asking a question. The question you ask the universe now is who am I when I'm at my best? Who am I when I'm at my best? Thinking of your best expression, generally, what comes to mind is who we aren't Just flip that over. Who we are at our best. What is your best expression? Keep asking the question and allowing the answers to flow back to you. Who am I when I'm at my best? The answers to flow back to you. Who am I when I'm at my best? And we'll move on to the next question to the universe who?

Speaker 1:

what am I grateful for? What am I grateful for? Allow your gratitude list to fill. Allow your gratitude list to fill with everything that you're grateful for. It should be flowing out of gratefulness. Keep asking what am I grateful for? And allow those answers to flow through you. Now, the final question to the universe today what does my heart truly long for? What does my heart truly long for? Truly long for what does my heart truly long for? Keep asking the question, allowing the answers to flow through you. What does my heart truly long for? For? We're still relaxing. We're going to move through into our meditation space by repeating a mantra. We're going to use the ancient Sanskrit mantra of Om Moksha Ritam. Om Moksha Ritam. Om is the sound of the universe, moksha is liberation or freedom of the mind. Ritam is the heartbeat or the rhythm of the universe. Om Moksha Ritam. Just say it out loud once with me. Om Moksha Ritam. Now just whisper it.

Speaker 2:

Om Moksha Rita Om.

Speaker 1:

Moksha.

Speaker 2:

Rita.

Speaker 1:

Continue repeating that silently. Just allow yourself to float in the space of meditation. Once you find yourself not repeating the mantra, just easily come back to the mantra slowly and move into the mantra again. The words might start getting mixed up. Just come back to the mantra. Just float away in this meditation process, repeating Om Moksha, om Moksha.

Speaker 2:

Om Moksha, om Moksha, ritam Om Moksha.

Speaker 1:

Ritam, I'll mind the time, just allow yourself to drift with the universe through the mantra.

Speaker 2:

Thank you, thank you. I'm going to take a deep breath, thank you. Now relax and release the mantra. Now relax and release the mantra.

Speaker 1:

Just take note of how you feel, just take note of the peacefulness, calmness that surrounds you. Now, when you're ready, you can slowly open your eyes, take this peace and calmness with you through the day or, if you're about to sleep, take it through the night.

Speaker 2:

Namaste. Thank you.
