Turn to the year 1999, a couple of friends sitting on a deck drinking beer and having a few laughs. The intelligent looking one (ME) sips a bud as he looks over to where his wife is, over through the window in the kitchen.She was sincerely listening to her childhood friend Simone, she had that look on her face, the one I never see. This look was only reserved for her closest girlfriends lately and I never got it. I always got the "Martin, I love you... but" Look.We had gone through some pretty rough times in the last few months. Cassie's dad died recently, and
During the past couple of decades there has been increased interest in meditation in the West. Meditation was brought into the public eye through people such as George Harrison. George Harrison for many years practised transcendental meditation techniques. He was a real seeker who gained musical inspiration from Eastern spiritual traditions and his practise of meditation. Although meditation has been practised by some Christian monks. Meditation is primarily associated with Eastern spiritual traditions and many people in the West still wonder what meditation is.
There is a “new age” joke which runs along the lines of.
“My son used to sit around doing nothing, but now he has taken up meditation.
I think this joke is funny. Well at least its better than the joke about the meditator who told his dentist that he didn’t want any painkillers because he wished to “transcend dental medication” (*) Real meditation though is quite different from just sitting quietly for 5-10 minutes. Outwardly nothing seems to happen in meditation. But although it is hard to explain, meditation is actually a very dynamic experience. We feel very awake with a heightened sense of our true nature. We see the world through a new more illumining perspective.
In meditation we make our mind completely calm and quiet. With the greatest vigilance we stop any distracting thoughts from entering the mind. By emptying. The mind of its usual restlessness, thoughts and emotions then we can allow the inner peace and joy of meditation to enter into our mind and heart. As Sri Chinmoy says:
“When the mind is vacant and tranquil and our inner being can invoke infinite peace, light, and bliss to enter into the vessel and fill it. This is meditation”
Another curious thing about meditation is that when we meditate very powerfully it does not feel like we are making any conscious effort. This seems counter – intuitive because to achieve anything we are used to striving hard. Meditation however is quite a different exercise. In meditation we are not using the power of the mind at all. We are seeking to bring the fore our own inner self or soul.
“What happens is that when we go deep within, we see that it is not our effort that is allowing us to enter into meditation. It is the Supreme who is meditating in and through us with our conscious awareness and consent.”
- Sri Chinmoy
However that does not mean we need to make no effort at all. In the beginning we do have to follow sincerely certain disciplines. Our main job is to “unlearn” certain habits of the mind. Our main task is to stop the mind from interfering. If we can make our mind calm and still then our inner being will spontaneously begin to meditate. It is in this quite and silent mind that we are able to experience the fruits of meditation and discover for ourselves the real essence of meditation.
To practise meditation it is not necessary to follow a particular belief system. Meditation is a spiritual practise that transcends religious and philosophy. At the same time there are many different ways that people can meditate. What is the right way to meditate for one person is not necessarily the right thing for somebody else. However the different forms of meditation are all leading in the same direction. In essence meditation involves raising a person’s consciousness. When one masters the art of meditation you can feel a more illumining and fulfilling state of mind. The ultimate aim of meditation is to experience union with God. This is described in different way such as enlightenment, Nirvana or self realisation. But ultimately it is state far beyond thou

I have lost track of the number of discussion board posts and emails I have answered about that topic. I admit for those first venturing into the uncharted waters of internet business it can be challenging and more than a little daunting. There is a flood of products out there clamoring for your money and all claim to be absolutely essential to your success on the internet. Don't buy it, they are all selling snake oil!There are some essentials you will need (assuming that if you are reading this that you already have an email account and internet access) but you reall

Paid money-making programs are not always the right choice for online marketing newbies. All the secrets to making money online revolve a simple, yet important, concept - the perfect match between the product you're promoting and the needs of the market you're operating in. My experience tells me that you can get started making money with a bit of right marketing knowledge. After achieving a steady flow of income and getting a taste of what Internet marketing really is, you can then move on and join paid programs with good reputations out there.I know it's so hard to
In the hoary past sincere aspirants would often cut themselves off from the world and meditate in caves, free from the distractions of the world. However meditation should not be seen as an escape from the world. In meditation we aspire to reach a state where we are not distracted by the world, but this is quite different to cutting ourselves off from the world. We can travel to the most remote cave in the Himalayas. On an outer level there may be absolute silence, but wherever we travel we cannot escape our own thoughts and mind. Meditation is at heart a practical subject. We should practise meditation where we are and whatever our circumstances. If we wait for outer circumstances to be advantageous we may never make a start in meditation.
