Foundation
Body Presence
Inhabiting the Body
A slow, attentive journey through the body — not to relax it, but to inhabit it. To feel the aliveness that is always present from the inside. The body as the most direct access point to now.

Daily Practice
Morning Practice
Five Breaths of Presence
A five-minute morning practice. Five conscious breaths, each one a return to what is actually here. Simple enough to do every day. Powerful enough to change the quality of everything that follows.

05
◈
Self-Inquiry
Direct Inquiry
Who Is Aware?
A guided self-inquiry meditation using the question "Who is aware?" as a pointer rather than a problem. Following the question inward until only the awareness remains, without a centre to hold it.

06
✦
Body & Somatic
Somatic Practice
Meeting the Emotional Body
A somatic practice for working directly with whatever emotion is present — not to resolve it, but to meet it fully in the body. For moments when feeling is stronger than thought.

07
◉
Daily Practice
Evening Practice
Releasing the Day
A ten-minute evening practice. Setting down what was carried today. Not processing or reviewing — releasing. Returning to the stillness that was present before the day began and remains after it ends.

08
✧
Deep Dive
Non-Dual Transmission
The Disappearance of the Meditator
An advanced transmission for experienced practitioners. The one who is meditating gradually dissolves, leaving only the meditation — until even that distinction collapses into open awareness.

09
◈
Body & Somatic
Breath & Body
Breathing the Body Awake
Using the breath as a vehicle for inhabiting the body more completely. Not breath control — breath as attention, as presence, as the thread that connects the thinking mind to the living body.
⏱ 22 minutes

✦
Daily Practice
Midday Reset
The Three-Minute Return
For the middle of a busy day. Three minutes to return from wherever the mind has been — to the body, to the breath, to the awareness that is always here regardless of what the day contains.
⏱ 3 minutes

◉
Self-Inquiry
Contemplation
Before the "I" Arises
An inquiry into the moment before the sense of self arises each morning — the gap between waking and the assembling of identity. What is present in that gap? This practice extends it deliberately.
⏱ 18 minutes

✧
Deep Dive
Full Moon Transmission
Dissolving Into the Open
Recorded at a full moon satsang, this sixty-minute transmission guides practitioners through a complete dissolution of the sense of separation — and the gentle, unforced recognition of what remains.

How to Use This Library

A Few Words from Maitreya

These meditations are not techniques for producing a particular state. They are invitations to notice what is already here when you stop trying to create something different.

Begin with the Foundation practices. Return to the Daily ones every day. Visit the Deep Dive meditations when you have time and space and the particular willingness to go further than is comfortable.

"The meditation is not something you do. It is something you are, when you stop doing everything else."

— Maitreya
