Meditation

We have been taught that this world is real. All of our lives we have been reinforced in this belief that what we can see and touch is real. All of our lives we have believed that our thoughts are real. We make all of our decisions based upon what we think. We create our destiny based upon thought. We create our truths based upon thought...what we THINK to be true. Our religions are based upon thought, our dogmas our philosophies...never get to what is real , because they are within a framework of thought.

We are so attached to everything that we possess....so attached to everything that we can see and touch....what we believe to be true, that the truth never is allowed to manifest itself. We are so attached to our desires that we live in a manifested state of illusion. A manifested state of Birth, Death and Suffering.

This world is formed by thought, is made manifest by thought, is so tightly woven by one thought after another thought, that it all appears to be real. The web of illusion is so tightly woven by thought, so tightly woven by our desires and attachments, that lifetime after lifetime we come back again to be stuck in the rut of time and space.

To see the truth , one must go beyond thought...beyond the mind. Meditation will take you beyond thought, beyond the trappings of Maya within the mind. Meditation will take you beyond your desires and attachments..to that place of ultimate perfection .....to that place of complete peace beyond time and space.

There is only one truth...all paths will eventually lead you to the same place, if the path is pointed toward the truth. Some paths go in a spiral...round and round till eventually, glimpses of the truth begin to appear. Eventually the path has to be transcended to reach that eternal truth.

There are many forms of meditation. The best meditation is when you are using no crutches, no form, no style, no method, no technique..in other words simply being here and now. Just being in the present. If you have no desires, no thoughts, no attachments.......it is very easy to be in pure consciousness...in that unmanifested state.

However for the rest of us who are full of thoughts, attachments and desires. it is very difficult to be simply in the state of awareness. So the best thing is to use a method that will get you there untill you can drop the method and just be still.

The two best ways to meditate include focusing your awareness upon Light and Sound. But before you do that..... spend some time being aware of your Breath. This will bring your attention to the inside, and help you break away from all the outside things. Being aware of your breath is a good starting point to get you away from your desires and attachments. All of our lifetime we have been putting our energy, our awareness outside of ourselves into the world. Being aware of your breath will bring you inside and will begin to break our attachments and desires. It will slow down the flow of thoughts so that some light will come shining through. Read the enlightened soul....you can also print it out. When you fill ready you can try Light and Sound.

When you first try to meditate upon Light or Sound too many distractions will draw you back into the world of forms. Your mind will give you a million excuses to stop meditating...you will see and here nothing because you will be too distracted, and the mind will say there is nothing there etc etc etc. Perservere.....This is why it is good to start with the breath untill you have begun to let go of the mind stuff. When you can sit still and be aware of your breath without a lot of thoughts and desires taking you away..then you are ready to move on to the Light and Sound.

The light and Sound is simply your inner self..what you are made of, so to speak. If you turn your attention inward and listen inwardly instead of listening to the outside sounds, you will hear an eternal symphony. The eternal river of Gods breathing. The eternal river of the primordial sound of the universe. To be in the state of the unmanifested sound of the universe .... simply listen at the midpoint of the two ears inside of your head. At first to help direct your attention inward you can plug up your ears with your thumbs or forefingers, whichever is comfortable.... this will block out the external sounds. After you adjust from the outside to the inside, you will just focus your concentration, your awareness at that point and merge into the sound.

The light of the Universe, the light of God is to be found by opening your Third Eye. By focusing your awareness within your Third Eye [eye of shiva, Gods Eye] all will be revealed to you. You will see your energy in movement, all of your colors will float before your eye of wisdom. If your concentration is strong and pure you will pass through the circle into the pure white light of pure consciousness. If your concentration is pure and strong you will discover the void beyond the light.....if your only desire is for God.

Someone running these words by you is not enough...you must discover and experience this for yourself. You must realize that you are pure consciousness. This is all beyond what your mind can comprehend, beyond what you could think about to understand.

To find your Third Eye, read the enlightened soul, and then discover for yourself that you are the light of the universe

As we sit in stillness, the awareness is allowed to expand to the greatest potential. When we sit in meditation we sit in stillness, we are that light of the stillness that merges into the awareness of being. As we are in a meditative state we watch the Ego come into play....come into being and disappear into stillness again.... until finally the ocean of the mind becomes still again.

Mostly as soon as the Ego emerges we grab on tight and say yes it is I. Let it go this thing called Ego....This is but only a glimmer of who you really are. Be in the stillness...

This body that we adorne and love so much...it is not the real I either...there is an identity beyond Ego and Body. A reality that is you on a higher Plane. A reality that is not of the earth but of the soul...of your awareness....

letting go.....of everything....trusting in your intuition and faith...sitting in stillness will bring about the Movement of your Soul.

Once there is thought there is Ego and desire...get beyond thought . Let go of thought, and sit in the stillness. As long as there is an "I" that comes into being, the song of your soul will still yearn for completion. As soon as thought is manifest the veil of maya is woven into a tight web of illusion..the ego thinks that it is in control and knows every thing. Nothing coukd be farther from the truth.....let the thought go ...be still.....

sit in the symphony of your soul even if you are standing......

As the ego manifests, the flow of the ocean of consciousness will slow and disappear. When ego disappears and when thought disappears the world of forms will turn into the flowing ocean of consciousness right before your eyes. Let go of the thought ....and see for yourself. Let go of the ego and in a split second the ocean of consciousness reappears as the movement of your soul.

that's the essence of meditation..being without your ego, being without thought.....being.... still.......

We can be right at the door to heaven, Standing right in front of the door, looking right at it ....and still not see it. Because we are always looking outside of ourselves for that doorway to God..... For it is beyond whatever you could find by looking for it.

The simplicity lays at your command to manifest that truth within yourself. If you are holding on to anything, you cannot open the door. Let go of "Everything"....Who you think you are, where you think you have to be, all thoughts of anything and everything...

Trust in your awareness to always be there even when you let go of everything. Your awareness is always there....... now & forever. As you let go of your thoughts [transcend],.....your consciousness, your awareness.... will expand accordingly. Instantly as the thought dissipates [disappears]

But we like to think.... huh? We will think about everything and anything just to keep the thoughts going. This is what we have been taught all of our lives...It is not true.

We like to think that who I am is this body and it's ego. We have been taught all of our lives that this world is real and this is what there is and thats it. This is also False. As long as there is constant thought then that is all that you will see...because you have thought it to be.

If there is no thinking...no thought...this world will disappear. You would disappear to anyone looking at your physical body. We are so attached to this body that we always make sure everyone can see it. This body is energy.... you may change it at will. This body may have a physical appearance but it is all vibrations that can both appear and disappear according to the amount of thought keeping it together. If there is no thought holding it on the physical plane then your natural tendency is to go to higher levels of existence. You may not be seen on the earthly plane when your awareness moves onto a higher plane.

Many people are afraid because they don't trust their own intuition. They don't want to let go of their excess baggage that they have come to enjoy carrying around and they would rather be like someone else instead of being who they really are. But fear not ....we all walk according to the beat of our own natural rhythm.

Love Everyone - Serve everyone - See everyone as God - Serve everyone as God - Feed People - Nourish People - Make people Happy -

There is only one being..Only one God...one consciousness,....and you are that - Thou Art That - Serve God - Offer everything to God - Offer your life to serving in Gods Grace - Live in Love

Higher Consciousness {God} is unconditional Love...without judgement..without condemnation - without end. Try not to think so much...let your natural rhythm set your beat one step at a time

Relative this date to what and why we wonder...But Why Worry? Simply surrender to the obvious higher power. End of worry....Surrender to the Higher power that powers the universe. Surrender to that place you feel you trust and know to be true within yourself. That you and only you know to be true.......

That place where all of nature comes from......... same as that space inside of you. Knowing God is in control is beyond Religion. Beyond any organizational structure. Beyond any belief system. It's a matter of Heart. It's a matter of being in the Heart...understanding comes through the Heart and not through the Mind. When you are completely still........The art Of Letting Go becomes timeless and disappears into the oneness of nature.

It's when we think we're in control we run into trouble. The ego becomes large and full of itself, and sees one room at a time and perceives it to be true. We only hold on to things because we are afraid....afraid to look into the eye of God. Afraid to see what's really there. We hold onto something and that's all we see...but when we let go of of that something, our vision becomes crystal clear. As we hold on to the stuff we're at maybe level 1, 2, or 3.--desires, attachments, ego,-- all the stuff that keeps the world of forms in view.

Once the world of forms is all you see, all of the rest of the mind set comes into play...hatred, greed, violence etc. We are like a little baby, running around in our mind pen saying it's mine mine, look at me look at me...... see what I can do.......You can change your consciousness in a split second. You can take it to another level simply by surrendering to who you really are. Letting go of all the stuff, all that excess baggage you carry around with yourself will fill your heart with such joy that you have never experienced before.
