Always seek to stabilize yourself by breathing;
take loving control of what your breath is.
In the measure that you become conscious of each breath,
something goes on happening to you, you go on settling,
you become more present,
and what could be even more beautiful:
you feel that you love yourself.
You are offering yourself a moment that is so intimate,
so personal, so necessary.
And it is part of your love, so recognize that,
accept it, experience it and rejoice.
Feel content, knowing as well, all that happens.
Let each breath reach you,
let it establish the synchronism with your space,
there, with the moment that you live,
and who you are today.
Express internally:
this is my breath today,
for who I am today,
for what I need today,
for what I want today,
for what I perceive today.
Expand that breath,
so that in addition to reaching you, it is projected,
and it takes effect before what you are giving yourself
and what you offer.
Attend to your breathing, perceive it well,
intuit its quality.
Somehow recognize
that you are less and less afraid of breathing like this.
You have comprehended more,
you have dared more, you have trusted.
And the mind permits, it opens,
it adapts, it quiets itself.
Observe that, put it to the test,
and, if it challenges you, breathe, calm it.
And let it be the one who regulates your entire system.
May nothing be found altered,
the body so contented,
and if you knew, so grateful.
It knows it holds you; it accompanies you,
and you are valuing it.
And the breath, so quiet, so fluid,
so pleasant and so heartfelt.
You will say: What is this haven?
In the face of such convulsion, so much friction, so much conflict,
so much indifference, so many tensions,
what is this haven?
It is you, it is your quietude, it is your state, it is your Being.
You will say: What do I submit to?
Before what and before whom do I yield?
What have I procured?
What have I come to live?
And you breathe, because there isn’t the slightest complaint.
If inconformity exists, commit yourself.
If you manifest anger, review yourself.
If you debate yourself in questions, listen.
If, on the contrary, there is rejoicing, attend to yourself.
If you reach acceptance, celebrate yourself.
If you have achieved comprehension in love, surrender yourself.
To whom? You will ask.
To whom?
To what you are, to what, from there you know,
to what you have defined, to what you have understood,
to what you know exists,
and you no longer resist nor deny.
And the breath, absolutely expendable.
Test yourself.
It is when everything becomes silent,
you need nothing.
It is when that which surrender is, occurs,
that which you’re preparing,
giving, transferring, connecting, linking,
to what the consciousness is.
It is when, spontaneously,
everything is received from you, and everything is given to you.
Beloved consciousness, here I am,
being who I am, loving myself, serving you,
surrendering myself, what more?
Say your name quietly,
and communion will be made.
Beloved consciousness, I will always be able,
I will always know; I will always be.
Breathe now at will,
being here.
You breathe in gratitude and with the subtle promise:
I want to harm no one; I value myself and others.
I want to hide nothing, I don’t need to lie,
I listen to myself, and I let myself speak,
and, above all, my commitment is to love,
and to love myself more.
I breathe in peace, I breathe in truth, I breathe in love. I breathe.
Om Namaha Shivaya
