A Course on Meditation

Home

If you believe that meditation may be difficult or boring to do, here’s a fresh approach. Learn how natural and easy it can be, by using the tendencies of the mind to transcend its limitations.

All people create, yet few know that they rely on unconscious patterns of thought to do that. Only a small percentage in each generation learns to live consciously, by-passing the limitations of habits, beliefs and judgments to live in love and joy.

The relatively small number is not because such a life is reserved for some special ones or because peace and love belong only to some future, perfected state. It is so because few traditions teach that fully expanded awareness is the natural state, the truth of human existence and that it will be found only now and only by looking within.

Some people who do begin to meditate do not continue to reach its goal. They stop after a short time because they find it boring and hard to do; however, because the deepest longing of spirit is to unite with the Source (whatever name may be given to It) the search continues. Some people have tried two, three…half a dozen varieties of practice without satisfaction, because most disciplines fight the natural tendencies of the mind.

Thoughts are a part of life, yet it is always possible to choose which thoughts to follow, which ones to entertain. Habitual thoughts create life experience, so when they change from negative and limited to align with the natural law of Life, daily life will naturally become more peaceful.

This does not mean there are no challenges in life. But if every challenge is perceived as a gift instead of a problem, then whatever comes is used as a vehicle for expansion.

This course provides instructions on how to use the tendencies of the mind in order to transcend its limitations. By working with natural law, by not fighting with thoughts, the mind is freed to follow its bliss and know its natural state.

There are 20 techniques in all and they work in blocks of 4 called a (Sphere). The First Sphere deals with root stresses and  can be used with your eyes open or closed. Each technique requires 3 hours of instruction and 1 per week is best for the first 4. You may choose to learn the next 16 techniques, 1 hour of instruction each. They help expand your awareness of different levels of reality and are used with your eyes closed only. The choice will be yours, to pursue a goal of greater conscious awareness of the universe around you, what some call (Enlightenment).

2. Gratitude
3. Love
4. Compassion
