Medicine Buddha Meditation Health Secret Method
- The "Sleeping Yoga Practice" taught by the Medicine Buddha Meditation Health Method is one of the high-level practice courses of Tibetan Tantric Qigong.
- This is a practice method that takes place during sleep. Through dream yoga meditation, practitioners can maintain a high state of practice while sleeping, thereby continuing their daytime practice.
- When practicing "The Sleeping Yoga Practice," it is advisable to adopt the "Auspicious Reclining Posture," which is lying on your right side. Bend both knees, placing your left foot on top of your right. Place your right hand under your right cheek and your left hand on your left leg, maintaining this posture throughout the practice.
- According to classical texts, adopting the "auspicious reclining posture" has four benefits. First, the body will not generate inappropriate thoughts or actions. Second, one will not lose mindfulness and awareness. Third, one will not fall into deep slumber and will remain awake at all times. Fourth, one will frequently have auspicious dreams.
- Besides adopting the "auspicious reclining posture," there are four other important tips.
- 1. Mindfulness: Nagarjuna said, "If you fall asleep in bliss, you will wake up in bliss. If your mind is at peace, your dreams will also be at peace." Therefore, from the beginning of practicing "Dream Yoga Meditation" until you fall asleep, your mind must remain on wholesome thoughts and good intentions.
- 2. Right Mindfulness: From the beginning of practice until falling asleep, one should maintain right mindfulness and right awareness, and try not to generate afflictions.
- 3. The Radiant Vision: When practicing, one should visualize oneself in a radiant state.
- 4. Early morning reflection: When you begin your practice, you should tell yourself, "I should get up early tomorrow." By doing so, you can experience the incredible power of the mind.
- Modern people are often under mental stress and suffer from insomnia. Practicing "Dream Yoga Meditation" can help relieve tension, alleviate insomnia symptoms, and enter a deep sleep stage.
- At the same time, because the body is in a highly open state of practice, it is able to continuously receive pure energy from the universe. Therefore, upon waking up in the morning, one will feel energetic and full of vitality. One will also be more wise in handling affairs and making decisions.
- Those who practice "The Sleeping Yoga Practice" should pay special attention to the closing movements after waking up in the morning. Through massage and patting the whole body, the closing movements close all channels connecting the body to cosmic energy, restoring the body to a closed state.
