The Animal Meditation
The Animals
As you walk down the path in your special garden, you feel the warmth
of the sun caressing you. There is a very gentle breeze blowing, and you can
hear the birds calling to each other. There is nothing in your garden that
can harm you; each and every creature lives in harmony with the others.
I want you to feel the peace that is flowing in your garden and the
gentleness of all who live there. Your path is winding through the trees,
and it will take you to a water hole where all the animals come to drink.
When you go down to the water's edge you will find the animals coming over to
say "hello" to you.
There are tortoises who are very slow and ponderous and love the feel
of the sun on their shells. The proud white swans go by gracefully, while
the ducks make lots of noise. Now you can see some deer coming down to
drink, and walking with them are lions and tigers. You can pat them when
they reach you and give them a big cuddle, as all these creatures love being
cuddled. In your garden there are no fierce animals because they have no
reason to be afraid, and neither have you.
The hippopotamuses are having a lovely time washing themselves and
each other with the water, and now the elephants are joining in. I think you
should step into the water and swim with them. If you feel a little tired,
you can climb on the back of the elephant and let it hose you down.
I can see the giraffes coming to drink. If you get out now, I am sure
you can have a ride on the back of one of them. Yes, you are getting onto
the giraffe's back now and off you go. Because you are sitting up so high,
you can see into the trees, and it is wonderful to be able to do this. You
can stroke the kangaroos and look into there pouches, very gently of course,
and there's a squirrel. Isn't it a busy little creature.
I am going to leave you now to explore your garden with your newfound
friends. If you want to get off the giraffe's back and go by foot, that's
all right. Perhaps you might decide to ride on a tiger for a change.
There is so much to see and do, and I know you will have a lovely,
lovely time.....
