Theseus and the Minotaur - Opening the Heart
The Greek Myth of Theseus and the Minotaur teaches us about opening the heart.
The Minotaur like the Sphinx, the Centaur, King Kong and the Beauty and the Beast, shows the dual Nature of man. It represents the selfish competitive Ego. It represents the man without a heart, the savage animal red in tooth and claw. The Law of the Jungle. Kill or be killed.
The person only interested in himself to the detriment of everyone around him. The psychopathic personality who only wants for himself and who will do anything, even kill, those who stand against him.
In order to open the heart we need to heal the Minotaur within all of us. It is called the initiation of, Opening of the Heart. Removing the Blockages of the heart and this is the function of these ancient secrets of meditation.
Part of the Initiation is explaining the function of the Golden thread which allowed Theseus to find his way safely out of the Labyrinth created by Daedelus a genius of a man whose mind was made of metal and wheels.
Follow the golden thread, it will lead you to safety. The Golden thread is the Golden Circulation of the Energy..... The Secret Of The Golden Flower....
Here is a meditation for opening your heart.
The aim of this heart opening meditation technique is to cultivate undistracted awareness and interior light by imagining a steady flame in the cave of your heart.
Close your eyes and visualize a flame in the middle of the cave of your heart. As you settle into a very light rhythm with your breath, imagine this heart flame burning steadily. Should winds of distraction penetrate your heart then the flame will waver, flicker, and burn uncontrollably.
When distracted, the flame will not burn brightly and its oscillations will cause the flame tip to smoke, clouding your concentration. Make your breath even, soft, and steady. This will help the flame of your heart burn steadfast and still. Visualize an unruffled flame with a constant glow, like a flame in a windless place.
Imagine the radiance and glow of this steady light filling your entire chest. Sense the spirit of great joy that accompanies this unperturbed, undying flame within your heart chakra. Remain for five to forty-five minutes.
In Love and Gratitude,
