Description
I hope you will enjoy this book in which you can read about how you can meditate (without buying further books or attending workshops or without any additional costs).
This book is for those who don't have too much time to read, but who are interested in learning the proper way of meditation. In this book there will be no talking about Astral planes, Chakras or any other complex spiritual theories, facts and ideas. This is a very simple book written with simple words for everyone, who is ready to experience more peace of mind.
Some thoughts from the book:
“Meditation is not about controlling your mind, because in meditation mind does not exist, or better to say you don't use your mind while you are in the meditative state. According to my definition, practicing meditation is impossible, but you can practice being more aware of your thoughts, or rather being more aware of the silence between 2 of your thoughtsâ€.
“If you are in the no-mind state, your life will flow according to your accepted beliefs, and it will be regulated by your stone hard habits, principles and expectations…, so you can even experience and face the same hardships (or rather the same situations) in your life that you experienced before not stopping your thinking.â€
“it is not about who is having the greatest collection of spiritual books, how many books you’ve read, how many official stages you passed, what rank do you have in an organization, or whether you possess any supernatural power or not, so you cannot even have an excuse that you are poor and that you need to pass an expensive exam that you cannot afford or you have to travel to a holy place to meet with certain gurus, so you don’t really have any excuse to delay. This is one of those fields where you do not have any advantage if you are rich, because meditation is the same for everyone.
“To get into the total present moment a state-switch is necessary where monitoring the self does not exists.â€
“At some point to get new experiences you might want to experience more limitations and negativities, because if you can pass those experiences they give the context to higher experiences in the opposite direction, which means e.g.: that only those people can understand love who experienced hate…â€
"It can happen while you are doing your exercises that you experience too much discomfort and even anger e.g.: because of disturbing family life or because of loud people around or because of people who don’t want to leave you alone... In these cases I would recommend you to stop the exercises -One hour inner anger (which is generated e.g.: because you want to meditate in a quite room, because that is what is recommended for the exercise according to the method that you follow) and an additional few hours afterwards while blaming your circumstances will not do any good for you and in worst case you will attach many negative feelings to your exercises,..."
Well, probably some of the ideas in this book will go against everything that you learned and heard about meditation, but if you are ready to experiment with new methods, if you are ready to view the whole thing from a different point of view, it’s worth to give this book a try.
