NOW Meditation (Kaala Samadhi)

Read every step and be in silence for a minute


Step 1
Relax your body and settle.
Relax your face and smile
Watch your breaths.
Follow the exhalation to the end point.
Stay there


Step 2
The place where you are right Now
God circled on a map for you
The beloved has bowed waiting there
knowing You were coming…
~Hafiz


Step 3
How can I dwell in the past or future,
when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
~Rumi


Step 4
Forget all your concepts.
All that you have learned in the past about truth is false.
You will forget all of them too.

I tell you truly, everything you now see
will vanish like a dream.
~Rumi


Step 5
Life is Now.
There was never a time when your life was not now,
nor will there ever be
You cannot find yourself by going into the past
or planning for future.
You can find yourself only by diving into the present.


Step 6
“I wish I could show you Now
when you are lonely,
the astonishing light of you own being.”
~Hafiz


Step 7
Close your eyes, Fall in love, (with Now) Stay there.
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Silence is the language of God.
All else is poor translation!
~Rumi

Now be Silent.
Let the One who creates words speak.
He made the door,
He made the lock, and
He also made the key.
~Rumi


Step 8
Take refuge and
fall into the boundless blissful lap
of infinite silent presence of NOW.

Now is the Time

Now is the time to know
That all that you do is sacred.

Now, why not consider
A lasting truce with yourself and God.

Now is the time to understand
That all your ideas of right and wrong
Were just a child's training wheels
To be laid aside
When you finally live
With veracity
And love.

Hafiz is a divine envoy
Whom the Beloved
Has written a holy message upon.

My dear, please tell me,
Why do you still
Throw sticks at your heart
And God?

What is it in that sweet voice inside
That incites you to fear?

Now is the time for the world to know
That every thought and action is sacred.

This is the time for you to compute the impossibility
That there is anything
But Grace.

Now is the season to know
That everything you do
Is sacred.
