New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Pearls are a miracle of nature brought about by chance. A grain of sand finds its way into an oyster's shell. Irritated by the intrusion, the animal coats the grain with nacre, forming the pearl. The lesson we can take away from this process is that a negative experience can be made into something beautiful.
To activate this magic in your life, close your eyes and visualize a grain of sand. See it as a challenge you are facing, one that is uncomfortable but that you must live with. Cover that grain of challenge with a veil of white radiance. See and feel the grain soften and lose its abrasive edges, its ability to cause pain or discomfort. With every layer, repeat: "I surround you in love, I surround you with myself, Until I glow from within." See the grain become a pearl. Repeat this meditation whenever you're facing a challenge. |
