What is The Meditation On Twin Hearts?
Meditation of Twin Hearts is an advanced meditation technique, simplified and made accessible to the general public by Grand Master Choa Kok Sui.
It is based on the principle that chakras are entry points or gateways to levels of consciousness. To achieve illumination or cosmic consciousness, it is necessary to activate the crown chakra. This can be done only when the heart chakra is activated.
“Twin Hearts” thus refers to the heart and crown chakras.
The heart chakra is an energy centre at the front of the chest, a centre for compassion, joy, forgiveness, mercy, kindness and other refined emotions. The heart chakra is to a certain degree a replica, or twin of the crown chakra. It has twelve petals, similar to the twelve petals which form the inner core of the crown chakra. The crown chakra, is the centre of illumination, or divine love or oneness with all. It is situated on top of a person’s head. Physically it provides energy to the brain and the glands therein. When the crown chakra is sufficiently activated, its inner core of twelve petals unfurl, open and turn upward like a golden cup, golden crown, golden lotus, or golden flower, to receive spiritual energy which is distributed to other parts of the body.
When the crown chakra is highly activated, a halo is produced around the head as depicted in pictures of saints. The crown chakra rotates so fast it appears as a brilliant flame of light on top of one’s head.
What Happens During The Meditation On Twin Hearts?
When a person does Twin Hearts Meditation, divine energy flows down to the practitioner; making him/her a channel of Divine Light, Love and Power. Spiritual aspirants who have practiced this meditation for quite sometime may experience being enveloped by dazzling, sometimes blinding light. In addition, practitioners may experience divine ecstasy and bliss. This is known to be a common experience among advanced yogis and saints of all religions, and can be verified through their holy scriptures.
This blinding, brilliant, and dazzling light is known as Heaven Ki in Taoist yoga, or the pillar of light in ancient Jewish Kabbalah traditions.
To the Indian yogis and saints, they call this pillar of light, the Antakharana, or spiritual bridge of light.
The Christians refer to it as the descent of the Holy Spirit, symbolized by a pillar of light with a descending white dove. The white dove represents the coming down of divine energy.
The descent of the divine energy causes a temporary expansion of the practitioner’s major chakras and inner aura but when practiced daily the expansion may become permanent and it also may manifests in greater healing, wellness, inner strength and tranquility.
The Meditation Procedure
WARNING: for whom the Meditation on Twin Hearts is not adviseable:
(1) children below 16 years of age; (2) those with heart disease, hypertension, glaucoma and severe kidney ailments; and (3) pregnant women – at a case to case basis.
Doing this meditation can have adverse effects on people with the above conditions. People with these conditions listed under 1 and 2 above are advised to speak to a Certified Pranic Healer for consultation and therapy before proceeding. People with the above conditions who insist on practicing the meditation do so at their own risk.
1. Cleansing Exercise. Cleanse the etheric body by doing simple physical exercises for about five to ten minutes. During the exercise, light greyish matter, or used prana, is expelled from the etheric body. Physical exercises also minimize possible pranic congestion since the Meditation generates a lot of subtle energies in the body. The basic exercises typically include:
eye rolls, neck rolls, arm rolls, hip rolls or swivels, trunk twisting, knee rolls, simple bending exercises and squating exercises in either a full or modified form. Do these various exercises in both directions. All exercises should be done in sets of twelve. Modified squats can be a set of fifty.
2. Assume a comfortable position sitting in a lotus position or on a chair with your spine erect. Take a couple of minutes to breathe deeply from the abdomen in a slow and rythmic manner allowinfg your body to relax.
3. Invoke for Divine Blessings from whomever you believe is the Divine Source, the Archangels, spiritual Helpers, Spiritual Teachers, Great Ones or whomever else you wish to include. The invocation is important to one’s protection, help and guidance.
(A simple invocation that can be done is ‘To the Divine Supreme Being, I humbly invoke your divine guidance, divine help, divine love, divine healing energies, divine protection and illumination. In full faith, with gratitude, respect and love, so be it.)
4. Activating the heart chakra. To activate the front heart chakra touch the centre of your chest (heart area) with your finger or a few seconds. Think of a time in your life when you were filled with joy and bliss. This could have been with a friend loved one or spiritual teacher. (personally I like to think of when my children were born and I held them for the first time) Meditate for a few moments remembering these feelings.
Then concentrate on the front heart chakra and bless the whole world with this loving-kindness by raising your hands and allowing the energy to flow through your arms to your hands and to the earth. When blessing the entire earth, visualize it as a small ball in front of you, being filled with dazzling white pinkish light. The blessing should not be done mechanically. During the blessing, visualize people smiling and filled with joy, faith, hope, and peace and reconciliation.
We use the beautiful Prayer of St. Francis on this part of the meditation, recite this quietly:
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace
where there is hatred let me sow Love
where there is injury, Pardon
where there despair, Hope
where there is doubt, Faith
where there is darkness, Light
where there is sadness, Joy
4. Activating the Crown Chakra. Touch the top of your head for a few seconds. Take a moment to feel loving kindness through your crown chakra and then bless the planet earth with loving-kindness from the Crown chakra and feel the energy coming out through your arms and hands. Feel the same positive energies you evoked in step 3. Visualize brilliant white light flowing from your Crown chakra through your arms and hands blessing the entire earth, reciting quietly this beautiful Prayer by Grandmaster Choa Kok Sui:
From the centre of the heart of God,
let the entire Earth be blessed with loving kindness
Let the entire earth be blessed with great joy and happiness
From the centre of the heart of God,
let the entire Earth be blessed with understanding, harmony and divine peace
Let the entire earth be blessed with goodwill and the will to do good
5. Blessing with both Crown and Heart Chakras. Bless the earth simultaneously from both the Crown and Heart chakras with golden light and continue quietly:
From the centre of the heart of God,
let the entire Earth, every person, every being be blessed with divine Love and Kindness
Let the entire Earth be blessed with warmth, caring and tenderness
From the centre of the heart of God
let the entire Earth , every person, every being be blessed with inner healing
inner beauty, divine bliss and divine Oneness with All
6. Visualize a point of light or a star on top of your head and simultaneously chant mentally the word AUM (Ah-omm–), or Amen (Ah-mennn–). Concentrate on the intervals or gaps (moments of silence) between the AUMs or Amens, while maintaining your concentration on the point of light. Do this for about 7 times and let go into the silence – for about 2 to 5 minutes –
And gently come back to the present moment.
7. Releasing Excess Energy. After meditation it is very important to release all excess energy by blessing the entire earth through your hands, with light, loving-kindness, peace, and prosperity for several minutes. Bless those in war-torn, famine areas. Bless the politicians with lovingkindness and wisdom. Bless your loved ones, your projects, all those in need. Continue your blessing if you still feel congested with too much energy, thus using the excess spiritual energy positively. Too much unused spiritual energy is not beneficial for the physical body, it can cause of headaches, chest pain, emotional turmoil, etc.
8. Do a closing invocation of thanksgiving.
9. Following the meditation it is important to tap or rub the areas of the liver, spleen, and kidneys to avoid any congestive energies. Also rub your head, face, arms legs and trunk and redo the physical exercises to help expel any used or diseased energies and to help assimilate the fresh and vital energy faster. And to do the set of exercises again.
