Your are @  MeditationsPerfections of the Solar Disk
 
 The Golden Threads of Nefertiti

The Egyptian papyri make mention of the use of golden threads to preserve youth and beauty. There are debates surrounding the notion that in Nefertiti’s time, her contemporaries possessed the technology to manufacture super-thin, superconductive threads or strings of gold. What is known for a fact, however, is that the Eqyptian Queens, in their capacity as Supreme Priestesses, possessed extraordinary secrets. It is altogether reasonable to refer to the Egyptians, quite boldly, as Technologists… Technologists of the Spirit… They understood the light-filled essence of Creation and of Humanity, and knew how to turn this knowledge and understanding into useful applications, for example, so as to achieve beauty -- so as to Be Beauty-Full.

 

The Golden Threads of Nefertiti are a series of meditations that will add radiance and glow to your Feminine Self. Peer into our Reflections: you will see yourself within them in the Identity you long for, that is within the compass of what you can attain: as Queen, as Sovereign over your own personal space…

  
 Perfections of the Solar Disk

If you are tired, if you are upset or in a foul mood, or you cannot leave your workplace, acquiring the habit of a particular technique may help you to give yourself a little break from time to time, a change of pace, to recharge yourself. The name of this technique is “Perfections of the Solar Disk”; it will train you in quickly restoring yourself to an optimal physical and emotional state. And if you go so far as to actually practice it regularly, every day, it will help you and give you the necessary strength, the energy that you require, that will be sufficient not only to enhance for your usual routine, but also for a multitude of other important and enjoyable activities that make up your life.

       

[1] Set your computer screen to the desired Mirror.

 

[2] Practicing the exercises of this technique requires keeping your eyes open and gazing upon the image before you. Unfocus your gaze and begin to gaze at the center of the pulsation. It is only important to direct your attention to this one point in order to launch the internal process of concentration; as its result, your eyes will select the proper direction in which to look, as your gaze will then begin to spontaneously follow the waves of the pulsation in an entirely self-guided way. Moreover, unfocusing your eyes shall allow them to relax, to rest, and thereby also to perceive the depth of the image portrayed upon the screen, in a manner enabled and enhanced by the stereophonic sound environment.

 

[3] As you continue to gaze upon the image, redirect your attention to the point that is located precisely between your brows. Relax your forehead…

 

[4] Feel the energy of the golden solar disk within your eyes. It resembles the energy of a smile. The eyes, as they receive emotional signals, facilitate the correct, attuned and harmonious functioning of all your organs and internal glands of secretion. It is specifically the eyes that maintain the serenity, calm and balance of your personal body.

 

[5] Collect the energy perception in your mind and allow it to pour forth upon your cheeks… towards either side of your nose… then down to the corners of your lips… Feel the energy as it pours down your face begin to relax its skin… penetrating deeper and deeper, into the muscles of your face… Feel it warm your face… Your lips and chin relax, the corners of your lips rise up of their own accord, ever so slightly, just the same way that Nefertiti smiles at you… Recall in your mind the smile of La Gioconda, the Mona Lisa, the upturned lines of the pagodas of the Orient… When you smile, you allow the energy of your life force to nourish your entire body.

 

[6] Now allow the energy to flow into the cavity of your mouth. Do not overlook the proper position of the tongue at this time: it is behind your teeth and pressed against your palate.

 

[7] Direct the energy of the golden solar disk from top to bottom along the frontal axis of your body: nourish all your internal organs and glands of secretion: your heart, lungs, liver, stomach, spleen, intestines, kidneys, reproductive organs… Pay special attention to those organs that are feeling unwell or stressed.

 

[8] Return your attention once again to your eyes. Gather up the energy of the golden solar disk yet again in the space between your brows, and now direct it along the dorsal axis of your body – from the head downwards, along the spinal column to the lumbar region and beyond it, the coccyx… Feel the warmth of relaxation overtake your neck, flow down between your shoulder blades, in the small of your back, in your pelvic region, through your hindquarters…

 

[9] Allow the warmth of joy and calm to dispel your stresses, worries, sense of injury, troubles, fretfulness, anxiety, your sense of helplessness or confusion… Feel your mood improve, your fatigue, irritation, fear lift and dissipate…

 

[10] Now close your eyes. One more time, in your mind, direct the energy of the golden solar disk from top to bottom, as if it were a cascading waterfall of joy, light and love, bathing you, streaming over you from head to toe. It surrounds you and envelops you within a pulsating, life-giving sphere, allowing you to spread forth your wings, and filling them with strength.

 

You love your physical being, and you love yourself being a presence in this world – in this peaceful space.

  
P. S.

The meditation is complete: you are in an excellent frame of mind; your mood is upbeat and refreshed; you remember a multitude of vivid, thrilling emotions, experiences, perceptions, impressions. Don’t be in a hurry to tell others about them. Recollect what transpired in images, sensations and perceptions and feel them stir your feelings yet again. Your purpose is to learn to be a balanced person, to keep a grip on your reason when everything around you is in turmoil, to keep everything under control without actually being controlling. This is not a task that is immediately easy to achieve, we know. But you shall learn to think in the right way. And only then shall you be ready to soar, throwing wide the wings of your perceptions, not losing yourself in the process… That will be when the moment shall come for you to share the joy of your discoveries with your near and dear ones, in order to recharge them with your own happiness…

 She Who is Most Full of Beauty is Here

You might call her one of the most celebrated women of antiquity. Her image has become one of the most familiar symbols of Ancient Egyptian civilization. Once venerated as a living divinity, having traversed the labyrinth of Time, she is once again enthroned in her rightful place, proclaiming the ideal of the Feminine and the Beautiful. She Who Is Most Full of Beauty is here. Her name was Nefertiti.

 

Nefertiti was the royal consort of Akhenaten, the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty (also known as Amenhotep IV), who reigned from 1351 to 1334 BC. The beautiful Nefertiti was not only the wife, but also co-sovereign with the Pharaoh, the inspiration for many of the deeds of the mystically inclined monarch whose life was devoted to religious reforms. They have come down to us in history as a radiant, sun-like pair. Gigantic statues remain today, in which Akhenaten and Nefertiiti are depicted as a single being, symbolizing the deeper meaning of a true union between a loving man and a loving woman. This King and Queen complemented each other; the sacred power and authority with which Aten had endowed them could only be put to use by the two of them together, acting in concert.

 

The ancient Egyptian texts refer to her as “the Empress of Upper and Lower Egypt,” ‘the Great Royal Consort,” ‘the Consort of the Divine,” “the Adornment of the King.” She was the living incarnation of the life-giving force of Aten-Ra, the Sun-God, who bestows Life. In Ancient Egypt, the wife of the Pharaoh was first and foremost the Supreme Priestess, fulfilling a role of the utmost importance during sacred rites, sacrifices and religious festivals. She was called upon to maintain harmony and the order of the Cosmos, given by God, here on earth, within her realm.

 

The beauty of the voice of the Supreme Priestess, the incomparable charm of her person and face, the sounds of the sistrum, a sacred musical instrument, brought forth through the thrumming of her fingers – everything about her was the personification of the feminine aspects of the Divine Energies here, upon Earth. She was the vessel through which the Divine Grace of the Life-imparting Light of God was poured forth. Prayers were offered to her in the temples of the divine Aten. In one of the inscriptions on of the tombs, it is said about her: “She escorts Aten to his rest with a dulcet voice and her beautiful hands playing upon sistrum. The sound of her voice enraptures.” Not a single temple rite could take place without her, for she was the surety of fertility and the flowering of all the land.

 

One of the names of Nefertiti, Nefer-Neferu-Aten, signified “Beautiful are the Perfections of the Solar Disk.” Nefertiti was held to be the earthly image of the goddess Tefnut, the daughter of Ra-Aten, whose name was also “Ra’s Beloved Eye.” It was said of her: “Ra’s Daughter is upon his brow.” When Ra arises in the morning over the horizon, Tefnut shines bright in the forehead of the great God, as a Fiery Eye. The coming of each new day, for the ancient Egyptians, was the repetition of the initial moment of the Creation of the Universe.

 

“My Love, the Queen of the South and the North, my Beloved, Nefertiti,” He wrote Her, millennia ago. “It is my wish that you would live forever…”

  
 The Waves of Ra Meditation

The space between the brows is the dwelling-place of intuition. Its harmonious development corresponds to the ability to think in images, vividly, penetrating into the essence of events, phenomena and objects; to dream correctly, making the dream fantasy an instrument of effective action. It so happens that the capacity to dream, to visualize the unfolding sequence of desired events and the desired outcomes is one of the most important traits of human geniuses. You knew perfectly well how to do this as a child, but unfortunately lost this ability over the course of time. Now is the time to remember, and to create.

 

Concentrate on the space between your brows and feel the rhythmic pulsation of the nerve within it, sending forth the vibration: Ommmm…

 

Continue to meditate upon the internal point precisely between your brows, and reflecting in your mind upon it, while it grows and grows and grows in size the more you deepen your reflection….

 

With each tiny movement, a concentric circle, like a ripple, separates from the tiny point in the space between the brows, and, expanding outwards, dissolves into infinity…

 

With each inhaled breath, you can feel your OM increase in density in the center of the space between your brows; with each exhaling breath, you can feel its radiating concentric circles emerging and expanding outward, gradually filling up all of space… The rhythm of your breath should coincide with this beating OM pulse.

 

Nota Bene! If you have low blood pressure, the concentration of energy in the space between your brows will give you an energy boost and will lead to an increase in blood pressure. If you have high blood pressure, take care to gaze upon this Reflection for a set period, using the proper steps of the technique, and not for extended periods of time – and always, as you conclude a meditation session, redirect the energy flow back to the vicinity of your navel and the soles of your feet.

  
 The Golden Light of the Self Meditation

Confucianists call it the Center of Nothingness; Buddhists, the Terrace of Life; Taoists, the Land of the Ancestors, the Yellow Castle or the Dark Passage. Between the Sun and the Moon – between your two eyes – there is a sacred space, whose lord is Light. The Egyptians called this sacred space the Eye of Ra.Focus your attention on the center spot between the eyebrows… A vast pulsating Mirror is before you. It is the passage that leads to your understanding of another self that is also You… You find yourself before the entrance of a dark tunnel… a dark long tunnel that vanishes into an unknown place, deep ahead… You gaze intently into this void and begin to discern some faint glimmer of light, phantom-like… You walk towards this brightening Light: it is intense. The light continues to grow in intensity… Suddenly you discover the actual source of the blindingly brilliant, glittering light: it is a crystal of exquisite perfection, from which the light emanates, so tiny, yet so brightly incandescent… This crystal and its light personify you – your true Self – the Divine Light of Truth, that is all awareness and all understanding, all knowledge of what Is… Dissolve your own awareness into this crystal of radiant light within the space between your brows, and very gently, with tender care of your self, return back through the Reflection portal, back into yourself, into your space between your brows.
