Why Meditate? (870 hits)

Todays message is based on meditation, getting
to know the inner workings of your mind and staying quiet long enough to HEAR your true thoughts.

Throughout out our daily routines we hear and react
to situations that we face in life, the problem is that we
can't really hear and react to things that our mind is
telling us.

Take the time to get to know your mind, understand
the things that your mind is telling you, and make
conscious decisions based on the things you learn.


Why meditate?

"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation
leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you
forward and what holds you back, and choose the
path that leads to wisdom."

-- Buddha

Meditation is considered an essential practice for those
who seek self-knowledge and self-mastery. Why?
Basically, meditation brings awareness of how our
minds work. Over time, we become watchers, able to
detach from the thoughts and emotions that play out
in our minds.

With this detachment, we gain the freedom to choose
whether or not to act on our thoughts and emotions.
We learn to distinguish between objective reality and
our mental and emotional dramas.

"Only in quiet waters things mirror themselves
undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate
perception of the world."

-- Hans Margolius
