The fourth step of Preksha meditation is perception
of bright white colour on the Centre of Enlightenment.
Concentrate your mind on the Centre of Enlightenment, situated in the middle
of your forehead.
Allow your mind to penetrate inside and perceive
bright white colour there. You may visualise as if the bright white light
of the full moon is spreading throughout the portion or visualise the bright
white colour of the snow or any other white thing. Practice concentrated
visualisation of bright white colour on the centre of enlightenment.
Perceiving the bright white colour, experience
through auto-suggestion that all your passions & emotions are being pacified.
All your excitations are subsiding. Your anger is waning away.
Now allow your mind to spread throughout the
whole portion of your forehead and perceive the bright white colour there.
Visualise that the particles of bright white light are permeating the whole
portion of the forehead, covering the emotional area in the frontal lobe
of your brain.
Continuously perceive bright white colour
and experience complete tranquillity, complete mental peace and bliss.
Conclude the meditation session with two or three long breaths.
