About Meditation


 

"Meditation can give you that which nothing else can give you. It introduces you to your own true self." – Swami Rama

Meditation involves a type of inner attention that is quiet, concentrated, and at the same time relaxed. The word used in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras is "Dhyana". It is defined as "the liberation of the mind from all disturbing and distracting emotions, thoughts and desires."

Typically our mind is restless and confused, jumping from one thought to another making it difficult to find balance and rest. Meditation is a systematic and methodical practice that, even from the beginning, helps us find stability and calmness.

Meditation can give you the ability to improve your health, your relationships, and the skill and love with which you engage with life. Meditation is suitable for everyone.

With regular meditation you can realistically expect to find new levels of energy, relaxation, calmness, and relief from stress. Ultimately it will lead to realisation of one's true self.
