How To Meditate - Meditation To Find The Deeper You

I am often asked by people, "How to meditate?" And it is a very good question. But you see, whilst it is very simple and easy to meditate, my answer is not always straightforward. You see, the question is, 'What are you wanting to meditate for?'

Are you stressed and purely looking for stress relief? Or are you wanting to meditate to discover more about yourself? Or maybe you have heard a little bit about meditation and you are just curious? It helps if you know why you are interested in meditation. Having said that, whatever reason you are interested in meditation, I would love to show you how to meditate.

If you are stressed, it is hardly surprising. After all, we all live in a world that is constantly moving, constantly changing; nothing ever seems to stay the same. Our physical world is constantly changing; our emotions can sometimes get the better of us, and the mind, well.... What can I say? The mind seems to be the biggest cause of stress, anxiety and depression for the whole of mankind.

So, how can meditation help you? Meditation can help you by bringing more and more stillness into your life. Not into your mind, your body or your emotions, but actually into your 'life', your state of 'being yourself'. You will naturally feel so much calmer and so much less stressed. So it really is worth doing.

I have been meditating a long time, and I have sought out the best meditation teachers on the planet. I have avoided all those who wanted to fill my head with anything that they cannot prove or demonstrate. I would advise that you do the same. It seems that meditation is often attached to religious beliefs and dogma. The insecurity and fear caused by holding a belief that cannot be proved, is often a deep source of 'subconscious' stress in many people's lives.

Your meditation is a progressive experience, meaning that you will become increasingly still and will experience some amazing benefits. These you will discover at your own pace and will discover them for yourself, within yourself. I can provide you with expert guidance and support.

You really will feel increasingly lighter as you discover more stillness and joy within yourself. As all thoughts can only take place in movement, and meditation only takes place in stillness, it stands to reason that thought, including all beliefs, religions, dogma, ceremonies, traditions, 'in vogue' or 'new age' beliefs, all are let go of.

Meditation is nothing to do with positive thinking. Whilst positive thinking, visualisations and guided meditations are a fantastic way of helping you get through life, providing you with mental and emotional guidance, enjoyment and support, they do not reveal anything of your deepest nature. Therefore, ultimately, these too can be let go of, if you wish to go further in your meditation.

I can show you very many ways how to meditate. Here is a shortened list of the meditation techniques that I can teach you.

Breath Meditation

Mantra Meditation

Crystal Meditation

Kundalini Meditation

Color Meditation

Geometry Meditation

Mandala Meditation

I teach these meditation techniques through my websites, my videos and in person at my meditation workshops. Whilst these techniques are very powerful, and they are more than many meditators have ever come across before, I have a much more powerful meditation technique that I can share with you. This involves the revelation of spiritual energy, an internal light and sound, at your brow centre. Whilst this is a very rare form of meditation, it is available to you now when you learn how to meditate with the meditation techniques that I teach.

If you would be interested in learning more about a meditation retreat that will take you deeper than you ever thought possible, then I encourage you to contact me through my website, and I will be here for you when you are ready for that step in your life.

Meditation Secrets

No one will ever achieve the surrender or non reactive state by listening to any enlightened person talking about this way of being. This state or energy level can only ever be achieved by taking the very same steps that the enlightened person needed to take! This article provides detailed information on how to navigate your way safely in meditation practice.

Firstly we will begin with an explanation of how to meditate. In the early stages a strict protocol needs to be maintained in order to achieve the best results. This process begins with Anapana, which is to sit still with spine erect and unsupported with the focus of your awareness on your breathing in the area of the triangle of your nose with the upper lip. This practice will sharpen, discipline and increase the sensitivity of the mind. A standard meditation period has one hour duration. Make no mistake soul energy flow is increasing with this exercise.

After a certain point is reached in Anapana practice then you will be ready to practice Insight meditation, which is a body scan of the whole body with your awareness. The requirement for readiness to commence Insight meditation is to be able to hold your concentration for at least two minutes without any distracting thoughts and to be able to feel the subtle or auric sensations over the triangle area. Practice meditation as often as your circumstances allow but do not be in a hurry with your meditation stage of progression. It is a long journey, which needs to be taken one firm foundation step at a time.

Always keep in mind that meditation is a process of increasing energy in the body, which will lead to inevitable consequences. The process of purification causes impurities or poisons to be released and eliminated, which often have unpleasant or uncomfortable side effects. This is particularly so in the beginning stages of meditation. The single most common form of side effect would be headache. This is because of the increased energy flow through channels, which are not yet wide enough to facilitate that flow. The wide range of symptoms can be in any combination. This is from headache or migraine, skin rashes, burping, coughing, sneezing, crying, nasal discharge, nausea, spinal pains and even diarrhea.

Do not be deterred in any way from your practice of meditation by the mirage of any side effect or combination of side effects. Just see it as an elementary stage to be passed through, which it is. Once passed through you will experience stronger more pleasant meditation ability. The early stages of meditation can be painful but this is more than made up by the joy of deeper meditation. Whenever you experience a side effect you should be really happy with true inner joy because you know that you are definitely meditating correctly.

Every serious student of meditation would be wise to have a correct concept for the purpose and function of meditation practice. There are only two paths in life. The first path or ego approach is to run around chasing the illusion enjoying the glamor of sensation. This naturally leads to the energy state of reduced soul energy flow with a contracted twisted spinal alignment of the body with reduced function. The second path or soul approach is to sit still in order to escape the illusion.

By comparison in meditation you practice detached observation of sensation with no particular attachment. This naturally leads to the energy state of increased soul energy flow with an expanded straightened spinal alignment of the body with improved function. Increased soul energy flow progressively removes the sediments of crystallization or resistance. Meditation is a progression from rigidity into flexibility on all levels of your being mental, emotional and physical.

Whenever you meditate your soul energy flow increases or speeds up and whenever you stop meditating your soul energy flow slows down. This explains why any progress you have successfully made during meditation practice is easily reversible during those periods of meditation abstinence.

One ten day meditation course correctly practiced will enable you to make a significant improvement in your meditation stage of progression or ability. Then after your course to practice meditation one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening every day will enable you to maintain your stage of meditation progression but will result in very little overall improvement or progression. This explains why it is better to do a ten day course every month for four months rather than to do a ten day course every year for four years!!!!

Your focus for meditation ability needs to be on doing continuous courses until the stage of continuous meditation ability has been achieved. To become aware of the soul energy flow and hold your awareness within it results in continuous meditation with continuous dissolving of crystallization. Only at night when you sleep does your body rest to remove the stirred up impurities and further soften the linings of the energy channels in order for meditation the next day to expand the channels even further.

With continuous meditation you are achieving only progression in meditation practice with no reversal of results due to soul energy flow slowing down!!!! When this point is reached you no longer need the initial strict protocol any longer because you now have the ability to meditate in all conditions. You have now begun the dual life of the outer every day life and the inner meditative life all at the same time.

No one practicing meditation at the level of a one ten day course every year with two hours each day only will ever achieve enlightenment. Only meditators with continuous meditation ability will ever have any chance to achieve enlightenment.

During meditation at times you will experience a process called Bunga, which is a larger than usual influx of soul energy flow coming down from your Over-Soul. Bunga is identical to the enlightenment experience with one small difference. The difference is the degree of resistance in your body. With Bunga the resistance pulls up the influx of energy short and with enlightenment it is a complete experience because the resistance has been previously removed.
