Meditation for Cancer

Meditation for Cancer: Balance your kapha! Moon natives can be benefitted through techniques which boost their body, enable them to let go of their emotions, and counter their mental stagnation. Cancer people should do more active forms of meditation, including mantra chanting or meditation combined with activity. Yoga and the practice of rituals are also excellent techniques for them. Here is a meditation for you: Keep a picture of Paramahamsa Nityananda’s eyes in front of you. Total Duration: Step 1-Duration: 10 minutes - Sit in vajrāsana (kneel and sit on your heels). Place your hands on your hips. By doing this, you are establishing a connection between the upper and lower parts of your body. Chant ‘hoo’ for as long as possible with each exhalation. Begin again with each inhalation, holding the chant as long as possible as you exhale. Visualize clearly a white light rising within you, going out from the top of the head and circling back into you. Step 2-Duration: 21 minutes Continue sitting in vajrāsana. With the hands on the hips, bend down at the hips to touch the forehead to the ground. Continue to chant the ‘hoo’ sound in this position. Continue to visualize clearly a white light rising within you, going out from the top of the head and circling back into you. Step 3-Duration: 10 minutes Open your eyes. Through your third eye, look at Master’s third eye in the picture. Clearly visualize a beam of light from Master’s third eye entering your third eye. Mantra means using the body physically to get the desired effect sitting in a particular posture and chanting. Tantra means using the body and mind together to get the desired effect adding the visualization of white light. Yantra means using an external object to get the desired effect using the picture of Master’s eyes. Nithya Dhyaan: the Universal Technique Nithya Dhyaan is a formula and technique that works on all the components of your being. Whatever your birth sign may be, it awakens the cosmic powers within you and makes them available to your being to excel in all spheres of life. This is a five-step technique. Allow seven minutes for each step. Keep your eyes closed throughout the meditation. Chaotic breathing: Sit in vajrāsana (kneel and sit on your heels). Place your hands on your hips and breathe chaotically, without a repetitive rhythm. Just focus on your breathing; let your entire being become the breathing. Intense Humming: Continue to sit in vajrāsana , form cin mudra with your fingers (with the thumb and forefinger forming a circle and other three fingers outstretched), and place your hands on your knees, palms facing upwards. In this posture, with your mouth closed, produce the sound ‘Mmmm...’ from inside your body, as loudly and lengthily as possible. Cakra awareness: You may continue to sit in vajrāsana or sit crossed legged if you wish. Keep your fingers in cin mudra position. Now, bring your awareness to each cakra one after the other, from mūlādhāra cakra(root center) to sahasrāra cakra (crown Silent Meditation: Be unclutched In this step, carry the understanding with you that your thoughts are unconnected, irrational and unclutched. Don't try to create thoughts, don't try to maintain thoughts, don't try to destroy thoughts or react to them. Just sit and watch them. Understand, by your very nature, you are pure being and bliss. Guru Pūja Now, connect, relax and rest into the universal energy. Just sit in a very deep and passive way, feeling one with the whole, God or your Master. Listen to the Guru pūja mantras and feel their vibration in you. Express your gratitude with reverence.
