The Embodiment of Stability and The Eternal Witness guided meditation has been especially created to commemorate the Bicentennial Birth of The Báb. The meditation technique it uses primarily focuses on visualization, otherwise known as awareness based meditation.
Meditation was Inspired By the Follow Baha’i Writings
“Say: Nature in its essence is the embodiment of My Name, the Maker, the Creator. Its manifestations are diversified by varying causes, and in this diversity there are signs for men of discernment. Nature is God’s Will and is its expression in and through the contingent world. It is a dispensation of Providence ordained by the Ordainer, the All-Wise. Were anyone to affirm that it is the Will of God as manifested in the world of being, no one should question this assertion. It is endowed with a power whose reality men of learning fail to grasp. Indeed a man of insight can perceive naught therein save the effulgent splendor of Our Name, the Creator. Say: This is an existence which knoweth no decay, and Nature itself is lost in bewilderment before its revelations, its compelling evidences and its effulgent glory which have encompassed the universe.”

Audio Recordings of the BMP Meditations
Each voice recorder (and all other contributions) of the Bicentenary Meditation Project have contributed their individual time and energy free of charge, without whom this entire community-led project would not have been possible or come to life. It is truly the result of the colossal global effort of individuals who have contributed to the commemoration of the Bicentenary Birth of the Bab with a joyful, willing and radiant heart - which also happened to be the only prerequisite of submitting to the Bicentenary Meditation Project!
As soon as we received the meditations, which included contributions from all around the world, from individuals with different skillsets, spoken language, age groups, professions, technological capacities, accessibility to internet etc, we would send all the received audio meditations of varied qualities to our Sound Engineers Jarome Mathew and Fei Hou (侯非) to create a cohesive experience for the listener, which was truly a labour of love worth mentioning in itself!
