Empty Bowl Meditation

Sit comfortably and calmly on your knees with your hands up and open, as if they were empty bowls.
Open your mouth slightly and place your tongue behind your front teeth on the roof of your mouth.
Begin by focusing on your breathing.
Allow your lungs to breathe naturally without exerting any effort. Simply observe the flow of your breath. Inhale deeply.
Take a deep breath out. Air contacts the inside of the nostrils during inhalation.
Keep an eye on your breath. Exhalation causes air to pass through the nose once again.
The air coming in feels chilly, while the air leaving feels warm.
Let your mental focus enter your nose for a fraction of a second! Sit in the nostril and observe your breath: ingoing, outgoing, ingoing, outgoing, ingoing, outgoing.
Allow your lungs to do their thing. You're just sitting there, watching.
After five minutes, pay attention to your breathing.
When the lungs inhale, the air travels through the nose, the back of the throat, the trachea, the lungs, the heart, and the diaphragm.
Deep down beneath the belly button, you will come to a complete stop.
The breath comes to a halt for a fraction of a second. Stay at that halt, then track the breath as it reverses direction as the lungs exhale.
Come up via the diaphragm, heart, lungs, trachea, and throat, back to the nose, and out of the body. Exhalation pushes air out of the body until it reaches about nine inches in front of the nose, when it comes to a second stop.
Stay at that stop for a while longer. The importance of these two stops cannot be overstated.
The first halt is behind the belly button, and the second is in space beyond the body. Because time is the movement of breath, time stops while your consciousness rests in these two pauses.
Because thought is the movement of breath, when the breath ceases, the mind also stops. You just exist without a body, a thought, or a breath when the mind falls quiet.
You will become an empty bowl in that pause, and when you become an empty bowl, holy lips will touch you. God will come to you and lavish his love on you.
You don't have to look for God because God is looking for you. God has been looking for an empty bowl to fill with his love since the beginning of time.
But there's desire, ambition, business, competitiveness, success, and failure in every bowl. Simply sit calmly and remain at the halt. That halt is a door. Simply open the door and leap into the abyss below.
You will be surrounded by an incredible sense of tranquility and quiet. Morning and evening practice this meditation for 15 minutes each.
You will finish your time in the pauses organically growing over the days, weeks, and months until, finally, inner and exterior will combine, and everything will happen within you.
