| What is Meditation on Twin Hearts? Meditation on Twin Hearts or Illumination technique is a technique aimed at achieving cosmic consciousness or illumination. It is also a form of service to the world because the world is harmonized to a certain degree through the blessing of the entire earth with loving-kindness. Meditation on Twin hearts is based on the principle that some of the major energy centers or chakras are entry points or gateways to certain levels or horizons of consciousness. The Twin Hearts pertain to the heart and crown energy centers. The heart chakra is an energy center in front of a person's chest. It is the energy counterpart to the physical heart. The heart chakra is the center for compassion, joy, affection, consideration, mercy, and other higher refined emotions. The Crown energy center (also called the spiritual heart) located on the top of the head is the entry point to higher spiritual consciousness. To achieve illumination or cosmic consciousness, it is necessary to sufficiently activate the crown chakra. This can be done only when the heart chakra is sufficiently activated. Only by developing the higher refined emotions can one possibly experience divine love. When the crown center is highly developed, one experiences Divine Love and Oneness with All. Blessing the earth with loving-kindness, peace and goodwill following the Meditation on Twin Hearts can be done by a group as a form of world service. The effectiveness of the blessings is magnified many times more when done as a group rather than as an individual. What happens during Meditation on Twin hearts? When a person practices Meditation on Twin Hearts, divine energy flows down to the practitioner; filling him with Divine Light, Love and Power. The practitioner becomes a channel of this Divine energy. 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, and a feeling of oneness with all creation. This has been 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 Kaballah 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 the temporary expansion of the practitioner's major chakras and inner aura. When meditation is practiced on a regular basis, the expansion may become permanent. The heart chakra is a replica, or twin of the crown chakra. When you look at the heart chakra, it has twelve petals, similar to the twelve petals which form the inner core of the crown chakra. The crown chakra, on the other hand, is the center of illumination, or divine love, or oneness with all. It is situated on top of a person's head, providing energy for 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. Benefits From The Meditation When people practice the Meditation on Twin Hearts daily or regularly, their major chakras and auras will increase in size, making their energy bodies more dynamic and stronger. With bigger chakras and inner aura, they can become more powerful healers and can heal most minor ailments very quickly and almost instantaneously. Having a powerful and dynamic energy body not only enhances one's healing powers but also increases one's effectiveness and productivity at work. People who have magnetic personalities or great charisma usually have bigger chakras and inner auras than ordinary people, and they tend to have a stronger influence over most people. Furthermore, a person who regularly meditates becomes more intuitive and intelligent. When faced with a problem, he will have the increased ability to see directly through the problem and find the right or proper solutions. Those who intend to practice regularly the Meditation on Twin Hearts, however, should practice self-purification or character building through daily reflection so their positive characteristics will be magnified or activated. The Meditation on Twin Hearts is a form of world service. By blessing the earth with loving-kindness, you fill the world with positive spiritual energies. The blessings can be directed to organisations, specific countries, or group of nations. The potency of the blessings is increased many times when done by a group of persons. Another way of blessing the earth with loving-kindness is by daily radio broadcast at an appropriate time with some or most of the listeners participating in the meditation process. When practiced by a large number of people, this meditation miraculously heals the entire earth, thereby making it more harmonious and peaceful.
