The second step of Preksha meditation is the
practice of internal trip through the spinal cord. Take your mind to the
lower end of the spinal cord, called the Centre of Energy. Allow your mind
to go upward inside your spinal cord upto the top of the head called the
Centre of Knowledge. Again allow it to come back through the same path to
the Centre of Energy. Again and again repeat the same process. Let your
mind continuously undertake the trip inside the spinal cord and perceive
the subtle vibrations of the vital energy, taking place inside the spinal
cord, or whatever sensation you get there. Simply perceive them without
any reaction. Concentrate your entire consciousness on the spinal cord.
You may synchronize your internal trip with the process of breathing. During
exhalation, undertake the upward trip and during inhalation, undertake the
downward trip. Use deep concentration and complete awareness. Practice the
internal trip through the spinal cord.
Allow your mind to rise and fall inside the spinal cord just like mercury
rising and falling inside the instrument used for measuring blood pressure.
