The Sit up straight and tall and close your eyes.

And I want you to breathe in and out of your heart.

I want you to smile gently and feelingly.

And I want you to place your right hand in your lap, palm up, and touch your thumb to your ring finger.

I get that first line under your fingernail.

Just a gentle touch, barely touching it, very relaxed hand on your lap.

Later, I want you to Google images like statues and paintings of the Christ and notice that

Jesus is often depicted with his hand position, usually held up, arm raised, bent at the elbow,

thumb, touching gently, the ring finger to represent the

Holy Trinity, to represent perfect union, oneness. And then later, if you like, you can Google

Sack Guru's theory about the significance of the ring finger in yoga. But for now, just feel it intuitively without needing the mind to understand why. It's a powerful

practice the way you have your hand placed right now. The way you have your fingers placed right now,

fill the energy. Not just in your hand, but in your body.

Again, you're using your body like an antenna and you're tuning yourself to God. And when your

fingers are placed like this, you are one with that energy. You are one with

God. You are being love. It also takes awareness to continue to gently hold your fingers this way.

And that same awareness,

the awareness that your thumb is touching your ring finger,

it's aware of my voice.

It's aware of silence and it's aware of the love,

that subtle joy, that current of bliss in that body,

appearing as that body, appearing as this moment of seeming time
