Meditation account from a disciple of Bodhi Meditation:
The past few days have been bright and sunny. It was a great
opportunity to wash and dry the blankets at home.
After washing them, I went up to the rooftop balcony to dry
them under the sun. I saw that I was not the only one. My neighbours had
already hanged their blankets on the racks.
Around noon, I went up to the balcony again to turn and beat
the blankets to remove dust. As I did not have bamboo sticks, I used my palms
to pat the dust off my blankets.
As the sunlight shone down on me, I was reminded of the
Meditation of Greater Illumination taught my Master, Master Jin Bodhi. I
decided to do some visualization right there and then…
I opened my arms and closed my eyes, and visualized myself
as an old blanket under the sun. As the sunlight shone down on me, my entire
body was filled with bright energy.
Before long, my whole body felt nice and warm. I visualized
myself using my hands to lightly pat my body. Wherever I pat my body, disease
and fatigue evaporated into the air.
After a while, I began to perspire. My body felt more at
ease after, as if the perspiration had removed the impurities from my body.
The blankets soaked up the warmth of the sun that afternoon.
As I covered myself with my blanket that night, I could smell the sun, and felt
myself being enveloped by the warmth of the sun’s rays.
