Posted by on Dec 4, 2010 in So the first part of the program will be theoretical, I’ll be speaking about the philosophy of meditation. And then the second part will be practical, we’ll actually do meditation. Before I begin, I would like to offer my obeisances to my spiritual masters.

They taught me this mediation many years ago. Since that time, I’ve applied it to my life on a very regular basis. And I can insure you that it does work. All this information I present comes from the Vedic scriptures. The Vedas are very ancient. They were written down 5 000 years ago. But, of course, the knowledge itself is eternal.

So prior to being written down, it was passed down orally from one perfect master to the next. And such a line of perfect teachers is known as a disciplic succession, or a parampara. We are in the parampara which is known as the Brahma Sampradaya. And we feel very fortunate to receive our knowledge through this lineage. So having said this, it’s obvious that this is not my opinion.

I’m not here to give you my opinion about meditation. I’m not here to teach you something I learned on top of the mountain one day.

I’m just passing on this eternal science. Now, throughout the world we find, more and more, people are interested in meditation. Even professional people like doctors and psychiatrists are referring their patients and clients to meditation courses, meditation classes.

And when we think of meditation, normally we think of a silent process where we sit down, oftentimes we cross our legs, close our eyes, and then engage in some internal activity. And there are many different techniques. One is called visualization, where we sit down, close our eyes, and visualize beautiful scenes in nature. Very calm and very soothing. Then another technique is called the silent witness technique, where we become the silent witness to the activity of the mind.

Now, of course, we know the mind’s activity is thinking. So we observe our thoughts as they go across the screen of our mind, just like we were watching a movie. We don’t take part, we don’t get involved. We remain the silent witness.

Many years ago in martial arts I learned a simple meditation. We would go in a dark room, light a candle, and focus on the flame. The idea was to develop one-pointed concentration. Another is called drilling the breath, where the meditation is on the ingoing and outgoing breath at the tip of the nostril. So many different techniques.

But the idea is: we are trying to reach a level of perfection where we have no thoughts. Football manager 2015 ingame editor crack. I’m sure that some of you have done silent meditation. And if so, you’ll probably also agree you didn’t quite reach that perfection.

So we sit in our meditation, we apply our technique, thoughts slow down, we become very peaceful, and it might be a brief moment when it seems like we have no thought. And invariably we go, “I’m not thinking anything!” And that’s a thought. And then we think, “Why did I do that?!” Now we’ve got to go back and try to reach that point again. Also externally silent meditation is very difficult. Number one, you must find a quiet place. That’s not always that easy to do. Number two, you must have the time to meditate.

And that doesn’t mean 30 minutes before you go to work or you go to school. If that’s the case, the whole time you’re meditating you’re also wondering, “How much time do I have left?” So you sit in your meditation, “Oh, 2 more minutes Oh, 5 more minutes” You can’t do that!
