________________ Vishuddha—Abundance, Experiencing the Limitless else had simply said she was dead and would never come back. I looked up at the stars and the moon and I thought, "Yes! Everything is bright and sparkling, and she is happy! How can my mother come back soon when she is in such a beautiful place?” This old man was a great help to me. We had our own language, our own special communication. He could express things in such a way as to lead me to new insights. Love can be shared with someone of any race or social position or age because love is a coming together on a level beyond all these external labels. Love is communication between souls--between my real Self and your real Self. The artificial self, which is forever fluctuating between exhilaration and depression, drops away as you focus on the real Self—that ever-expanding, universal love. Now, moving from the fourth to the fifth center, visualize a scarlet or mauve oval. Gradually expand the space within the oval, breaking all barriers until it is without limitation. Feel that now all energy is available to you. Whenever your mind becomes distracted, use the mantra aim,* which is Sanskrit for “the energy of wisdom, the energy of plenty and purity.” In time, you will begin to experience purity as synonomous with space, with abundance, and with wisdom. At this point in working on the seven centers, many people find it helpful to practice prāna yāma breathing. To do this, alternately block one nostril with the thumb and the other with the third finger. Using the ratio 1:4:2, inhale • Pronunciation is similar to the English "aim."
