11. Nine Cycle of Breathing and Entering Samadhi


Nine Cycle Breathing

(1). Visualize white light enter the right nostril,. Here it becomes red light and descends the right channel to enter the left channel at the dan-tien; then, still as red light, it ascends the left channel to exit the left nostril as dark light.

(2). Visualize white light enter the left nostril. Here it becomes red light and descends the left channel to enter the right channel at the dian-tien; then, still as red light, it ascends the right channel to exit the right nostril as dark light.

(3). Visualize white light simultaneously enter both nostrils, transform into red light, descend down both side channels and enter the central channel at the dian-tien, ascend to the top [[[crown chakra]]], then return to dian-tien to enter both side channels, exiting as dark light I both nostrils.


(4). Breathe in through left nostril and out at the right (as in 2)

(5) Breathe in through right nostril and out at the left ( as in 1)

(6) Breathe in and out through both nostrils (as in 3)

(7) Breathe in and out through both nostrils (as in 3)

(8) Breathe in through right nostril and out at the left ( as in 1)

(9) Breathe in through left nostril and out at the right (as in 2)


Entering of the Deity into Oneself (Ru-wo Guan)

(1) Visualize the Deity ( in this practice, Root Guru or Padmakumara) sitting stop one’s crown opening.

(2) Inside one’s body, the lotus located at the central channel at the heart chakra opens up to reveal a moon disc. On the moon disc is the Deity’s seed syllable radiating light.

(3) Visualize the Deity at one’s crown transform into a light pearl the size of a grain of rice.

This light pearl enters through the crown opening to descend down one’s central channel. Upon reaching the heart chakra, the light pearl rests atop the lotus at one’s heart chakra.

(4) The Deity at the heart chakra lotus gradually enlarges until becoming exactly the same size as one. Visualize one becoming the Deity. There is no separation between one and the Deity.

Release of Oneself into the Cosmic Consciousness (Wo-ru Guan)

Visualize oneself as the Deity, ascending the central channel and entering into the Void and merging into the Cosmic Oceam of great light.

Release the self completely by entering and merging with the Void, the Cosmic Consciousness, and the Ocean of Light.

The Cosmic Consciousness is one’s own consciousness.

Both the shrine and the universe are radiating great light. If one is not able to release the self, immediately visualize oneself at the Deity again.

After achieving a clear visualization, release the self and enter the Void again.

This process is known as “alternating cessation with visualization/observation” or “ dual employment of cessation and visualization/observation.”


Breath Counting Method:

Mentally count one’s own inhalation and exhalation until arriving at the “stillness” condition of “no-thought.” Then, release oneself into the Cosmos.


12. Emerging from Samadhi:

The procedure for emerging from Samadhi is a reversal of “ Entering of the deity into Oneself” and “ Release of Oneself into the Cosmic Consciousness” as described in step

11. Visualize oneself emerge from the Void to return to one’s body.

The Deity then contracts to rest upon the heart chakra lotus and transform into a light pearl.

The light pearl ascends the central channel to exit through the crown opening and transforms back into the Deity. One emerges from Samadhi.
