definition

image: Close your eyes. Breathe in and out three times. Allow yourself to float gently down into your own imagination. When at last you are ready, let your inner eyes see your body, as it is at this moment, as if from the outside. See it painlessly grow into two identical bodies. Take a moment to marvel at the sight and then allow one to gently shrink down until it appears to be the size of an ant. As it shrinks, let it grow closer to the one of you that remains large, until the tiny you rests upon the skin of the larger you. Identify with your tiny body. See the skin of your large self as a vast, firm, magical surface that lets you through at the touch of your hand. Feel yourself enter through the magical surface to find a world of endless tunnels, along which underground rivers flow. Directly before you is such a tunnel and such a river. It takes you no time at all to see that the river cannot flow freely. Discover that in your hand, you carry a magical lamp which throws a beautiful red-gold light which melts every unnatural obstruction that it falls upon, leaving everything that rests in its natural place undisturbed. Experience yourself taking your lamp into every part of the vast network of tunnels, melting away all obstructions as you go. When you are finished, watch with deep satisfaction as the rivers flow freely through their tunnels and all at last is right in this underground world. Feel yourself step back through the skin and allow yourself to return to normal size. Let yourself become a single body once again. Rest for a moment, feeling pleased with all that you have done. Then allow your eyes to slowly open once again. (Chavez)
