Now we dive in the deep and go do a phosphene meditation on this Sri Yantra I designed with AI specifically to induce the first phosphene glowing after effects after you close your eyes! Phosphenes as you meanwhile know are the sacred lights you perceive in meditation behind the closed eyes.
For a meditation on phosphenes, the Sri Yantra and its associated mantra, “Om Aim Hreem Shreem Sri Matre Namah”, are ideal. The Sri Yantra’s intricate geometry resonates naturally with the patterns and forms that emerge during phosphene meditations, making it a powerful focal point for aligning inner light phenomena with sacred geometry.
Lets start: Why the Sri Yantra?
- Geometric Resonance:
- The Sri Yantra consists of a complex symmetry, mirroring the structured yet organic nature of phosphene patterns, such as grids, spirals, and concentric circles.
- During meditation, phosphenes often appear as pulsating or flickering light forms. The yantra’s structure offers a grounding framework to focus these spontaneous visual experiences, giving them symbolic meaning.
- Cosmic Symbolism:
- The Sri Yantra represents the union of Shiva (consciousness) and Shakti (energy). It embodies the balance between the dynamic forces of the universe and the stillness of awareness.
- Meditating on the Sri Yantra while observing phosphenes aligns the practitioner with this universal balance.
- Bindu (Central Point):
- At the center of the Sri Yantra lies the bindu, symbolizing the source of creation and consciousness. During phosphene meditation, focusing on the bindu connects the inner light with the universal light.
Recommended Mantra to go with the phosphene meditation
“Om Aim Hreem Shreem Sri Matre Namah” (pronounce: Ohm Ayeem Hreem Shreem Shree Mah-tray Nah-mah)
Meaning:
- Om: The primordial sound, representing universal consciousness.
- Aim: Invocation of Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom and clarity.
- Hreem: The bija mantra of divine energy, symbolizing transformation and illumination.
- Shreem: The bija mantra of abundance and auspiciousness, invoking Lakshmi.
- Sri Matre Namah: Salutations to the Divine Mother, the source of all creation.
This mantra complements the Sri Yantra’s energy, amplifying its resonance with the light and vibrational phenomena experienced during meditation.
Meditation Process
- Prepare the Space:
- Place a visual representation of the Sri Yantra in front of you, stare in the middle for at least 1 minute.
- Activate Phosphenes:
- Close the eyes and observe the patterns and light forms that naturally arise in your visual field.
- Focus on the Yantra:
- With your eyes closed, visualize the Sri Yantra superimposed over the phosphene patterns. Allow the dynamic shapes to align with the yantra’s structure.
- You can also gently open and close your eyes and alternate between gazing at the yantra and observing phosphenes.
- Chant the Mantra:
- Recite “Om Aim Hreem Shreem Sri Matre Namah” silently or aloud, synchronizing it with your breath. Stop after 5-10 minutes
- Visualize the bindu (central point) of the yantra glowing brightly, merging with the phosphene light in your inner vision.
- Integration:
- Allow yourself to immerse in the union of light, sound (mantra), and form (yantra). Let go of all effort, resting in the awareness of the luminous field.
