The Book of Time
Visualize yourself in a
long dark tunnel. If you can't visualize, just imagine, feel or sense yourself
here. It's a large tunnel with plenty of space and at the end of the tunnel is a
small, white light. You are floating headlong through this tunnel, speeding
towards the white light. It is somewhat cold, but that doesn't bother you for
you know that you are safe. And as you move down through the tunnel you draw
closer and closer to the white light, and as you draw closer and closer to the
white light, the white light becomes bigger and brighter, bigger and brighter,
bigger and bigger, brighter and whiter, until you are right up to the bright,
white light, the bright, white light just in front of you. You are no longer
floating, you are standing, but if feels as though you're stepping on soft,
fluffy clouds which gradually evaporate into the path upon which you stand. Now,
I will count to three, and at the count of three I want you to Step Into The
Light.
One. Two. Three. (Pause).
You are now standing In The Light. It is a pure, white light. Feel the light
streaming down through the crown of your head. Feel the white light being drawn
downwards, through the body, the head, the neck, the shoulders and arms, the
chest, the stomach and thighs and legs and feet. The beautiful bright white
light is in you. You are In The Light. You are The Light.
The Light is Love and You are The Light. You are Love. You are protected by your
own positive psychic energy field. Your beautiful white Light. You are In The
Light and The Light is in you.
Feel the white light cleansing your whole body, your whole mind and your spirit.
Feel the beautiful white light lifting away any impure thoughts or feelings.
Feel the healing energy of the white light. This is your light. You are the
light. You are protected by your own positive psychic energy, your light, your
beautiful bright, white light.
And now you're standing at the top of a very long flight of stairs that go down
and around, down and round and round and down. You walk slowly and carefully
down these stairs, going deeper and deeper down, becoming more relaxed and more
comfortable with each step down.
And standing here at the bottom of the stairs you see a large, heavy oak door.
The door is closed but as you reach out to push it open, the door begins to
creak and slowly opens, revealing a room resembling a library, though smaller in
size.
On either side of the wall are hundreds of books. Old books, new books, big
heavy books and smaller, lighter books. Some are in pristine condition and
others battered and well-read. Walk through the archive, past the rows and rows
of books.
Soon you are drawn towards a particular book. It's a large, heavy, cloth-bound
book and looks very, very old. You reach up and carefully remove the book from
its position on the shelf. Then carry it over to a small table
You wipe away the thick dust from the cover of the book and carefully trace the
embossed writing with your thumb. On the cover of the book is your name in Old
English typeface. You open the book up and seeing that some of the pages are
yellowing from age, you take more care.
You already know that this book is the Book of Time. It is the book of YOUR
time and your many lives. Opening the book at the present date you see an entry
for today, describing things that happened earlier.
Turning back the pages you see an entry for your last birthday, and a picture
there of how you looked. Many pages contain photographs, some in colour, some
black and white, and further back the photographs are sepia
Carefully turning the pages of your life you see photographs and entries of
things that you'd completely forgotten about. Earlier times in your life,
happier times, some sad times too perhaps. Right back to infancy, when you were
just a tiny baby.
Turning back the pages, further still, you see photographs of your old self. The
person you used to be. The writing may be foreign, certainly many of the words
are different from the ones used now. Looking carefully you see the name, your
name.
See that old photograph now and read the writing, for you instinctively know
exactly what it says. Notice the date on this page, perhaps mention of a town or
city. I'm going to be quiet for a few moments now, and in the silence let
yourself absorb all the information from this book that you require. Don't worry
about remember all of it now, for you can return here, any time you want to,
Pause for 5 minutes then count up as above.
And as you remember - certain images come into your mind, resurfacing upward
from the depths of the subconscious mind - and you find that the more you
remember, the more relaxed and comfortable you become, if fact, imagining
relaxes you even more deeply - and the more comfortable and relaxed you become,
the more open and receptive is your mind and so the more you do remember. And
you're now remembering a time way back there in the past. You're going back -
back, gently and comfortably back. All the way black.
Some of the images that flow into your mind may seem quite unreal, you may even
doubt that they are nothing more but figments of your imagination - but keep
your mind open - and let the memories flow back into your awareness.
Pause again, then continue:
Now it's time to close the Book of Time and replace it on the shelf. Can you go
back through the door and up the steps???
Okay. Now I'll count up to 10 and come all the way
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 -7 - 8 -9 10 wide awake now, wide awake.
