The Shape of Being

In this meditation you find yourself back where you faced your worst fears.Now you feel more confident of yourself and your abilities,but you still have to ask the question:`What is the shape of my life,and what do i need to do to ensure that it follows the shape laid down for me?`(this does not mean you have no freedom of choice;simply that a pattern exists that which you may or may not follow,but which is nonetheless offered to you)

Within the cave all is still.You enter in a state of peace and harmony with yourself;all the cares and fears of your life in the mundane world fall away.Eventually you reach a point where you view your life objectivly.

Now you see a number of stones scattered about the floor of the cave on each of which is a symbol relating in some way to our home,work,partnerships,friends, enemies,hopes and desires-all the elements which form a pattern of your life.

Begin collecting the stones, and consider what these building-blocks mean to you.How do you view your relationships,your work,your children if you have any? What would you change if you could? What are your dreams and ambitions;how many have you implemented so far? Consider each stone. Weigh it in either hand feel if it balances or if it wants to roll away or turn over.

Now taking your time,begin to set the stones in a pattern whch pleases you. This may sound easy but you`ll find you`ll spend alot of time moving the stones from place to place until you establish the right relationships.Pay particuar attention to which ones are easy to position-foundations perhaps.Which are central to the pattern?Which are peripheral?

When you are finished(allow yourself a reasonable amount of time)study the pattern until you are thouroughly familiar with it.Take note of the way certain stones relate to one another,the way some seem less important than others.Then slowly and carefully, return to ordinary consciousness,then draw the pattern in a notebook,puting in the symbols as you remember them,or what they represent in words.

Keep this and study it for a few weeks,if necessary repeat this meditation and see how it has changed. Whether or not you follow this pattern you have made, you have made an important step in understanding the shape of you life.You have also learned a great deal about power.
