Part VII : Nadabrahma Meditation
Nadabrahma is an old Tibetan technique which was originally done
in the early hours of the morning. It can be done at any time
of the day, alone or with others, but have an empty stomach and
remain inactive for at least 15 minutes afterwards. The meditation
lasts an hour, and there are three stages.
First stage: 30 minutes
Sit in a relaxed position with eyes closed and lips together.
Start humming, loudly enough to be heard by others and create
a vibration throughout your body. You can visualize a hollow tube
or an empty vessel, filled only with the vibrations of the humming.
A point will come when the humming continues by itself and you
become the listener. There is no special breathing and you can
alter the pitch or move your body smoothly and slowly if you feel
it.
Second stage: 15 minutes
The second stage is divided into two 7½ minute sections.
For the first half, move the hands, palms up, in an outward circular
motion. Starting at the navel, both hands move forwards and then
divide to make two large circles mirroring each other left and
right. The movement should be so slow that at times there will
appear to be no movement at all. Feel that you are giving energy
outwards to the universe.
After 7½ minutes turn the hands, palms down, and start
moving them in the opposite direction. Now the hands will come
together towards the navel and divide outwards to the sides of
the body. Feel that you are taking energy in. As in the first
stage, don't inhibit any soft, slow movements of the rest of your
body.
Third stage: 15 minutes
Sit or lie absolutely quiet and still. medfre08
