'SECRETS OF TIBETAN PHOWA....

'

Phowa (pronounced po-wa) is a Tibetan Tantric meditation that can give

you Realization (i.e. "Enlightenment"). It is translated as
"transference of consciousness"... Tibetan tantrics use variations of
Phowa everyday.

Here's one very powerful version for you to try. Like most tantric
meditations, it works best if you use your 5 sense senses together with
your imagination:

(Note: Always get your physician's All-Clear before begining any

regime of exercize, deep breathing, or using powerful meditation techniques
like this one!)

Sit upright and relaxed in any seated meditation posture, breathing

deeply and evenly with your abdomen. Close your eyes if you need to.
Touch your tongue to the roof of your mouth.

Using imagination and your senses, feel your body dissolve and replace
it from above with a radiant, beautifully glowing "divine" body.
Inhabit that radiant body and remain with that feeling for a few moments.

Now dissolve the "divine" body and replace it from above with a larger,
even more radiant body made of pure light. Repeat this step 3 or 7 or
9 times, experiencing your awareness of each radiant body before you
dissolve it.

Lastly, again generate a radiant, divine body from above, perhaps even
larger this time. Remain within it and experience the radiance for a
few moments, then dissolve it. What remains?

Experience this Reality without form.... (Where are You? Who are you?
Are you the physical body? Are you any of the Divine Bodies? Or are
you really that which remains - primordial consciousness, that which
permeates even empty space, the Absolute, the universal. Hindu sages
call this Atman -- the "Self." Buddhist sages call it An-atman --
"No-self." The difference is just semantics. Both speak of the same
primordial nature...)

Now, remaining in the awareness that you are that, come back to the
visceral experience of your physical body, firmly planted in physical
reality. Your real self nature can be experienced here, too, in
everyday existance, because It permeates all things.

Repeat the meditation as often as you like, to remind you of your own
