What is Meditation? Have you ever watched a sunset, sat by the ocean, or taken a walk in the forest and felt complete inner peace and well-being? That is the same feeling that is experienced during meditation practice. Meditation is a period of time set aside every day to quiet the mind. Meditation is a way to slow down, chill out, and get in touch with the eternal side of your being. Initially in meditation, thoughts are slowed down, and eventually, thought stops completely. The height of meditation is a state called samadhi where the mind is completely merged with worlds of perfect light. Meditation recharges you and helps you get in touch with your inner self. It brings clarity and insight into daily life - you can more easily determine what is really right for you. Meditation makes you happy and bright. It also empowers you to accomplish things in the daily world by connecting you to the power of the universe. Eventually, dedicated meditation practice leads to Enlightenment. The great news is that the benefits of meditation will be experienced right away, beginning with your first meditation session. "Meditation is the bridge between this and all other levels of consciousness;

Beginners Guides Issue I Yoga and Meditation ( Dhyana by Georg Feuerstein Introductory Statement Meditation is central to the spiritual endeavor in many schools of Hinduism, notably the Yoga tradition. The Bhagavad-Gita (12.12) ranks meditation above intellectual knowledge, and the Garuda-Purana (222.l0) states: "Meditation is the highest virtue. Meditation is the foremost austerity. Meditation is the greatest purity. Therefore be fond of meditation." This exhortation expresses a sentiment that is widespread in the sacred literature of Hinduism. However, meditation is by no means universally regarded as the principal means of attaining Self realization. For instance, the Bhagavad-Gita (13.24) states that some behold the Self ( atman ) by means of meditation, while others approach it through samkhya-yoga and karma-yoga . Here samkhya-yoga stands for the spiritual practice of discernment ( viveka ) between the real and the unreal, and karma-yoga is the practice of dispassionate action. In the Trika school of Kashmir, the

164. Art As A Source Of Christian Meditation. Using art to nurture a Christian spiritual outlook on life, or as a springboardto meditative prayer. http://landru.i-link-2.net/shnyves/Art_in_Meditation.html

Meditation with Art If Christian meditation is thought, emotion, and imagination that leads to prayer, to conversation with God, then one way to approach it is not a book, but a work of art. Fine art will engage a different senses, and it will communicate. It was used for centuries as a teaching tool, even a catechism. The artist can help us to see something in a new way, or to feel the emotion of an event centuries before. We can use the image as a visual template to enter a scene in our imagination and thus experience the great events of our salvation. Although Christian religious art would be the safest to start with, all art could be useful if it is a method used to talk to God. Remember that God is the original source and author of all beauty. See, Wisdom 13:3 The Catechism of the Catholic Church. , sec. 2129 last sentence. See CCC 2132, Catholic Tradition and Teaching on Religious Art, Sacred Images , and Aquinas, II II, 81, 3 (Reply to objection 3). "The beauty of ...images moves me to contemplation, as a meadow delights the eyes and subtly infuses the soul with the glory of God." St. John Damascene.

Meditation Meditation is the state achieved from intense concentration on a single object until all other thoughts vanish and all that is left is an intense awareness of the object. For some traditions, that's all there is to it. In yoga, however, the ultimate goal is a bit more ambitious. Meditation is one of the Eight Limbs of yoga outlined in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras . Called dhyana, meditation is considered the highest practice and is the final step before bliss. James Hewitt, in The Complete Book of Yoga defines the goal of yoga meditation like this: "Â meditation means sense withdrawl (pratyahara) and concentration (dharana), sustained into contemplation (dhyana), with the aim of triggering a super-conscious state (samadhi), which is one of intuitive realization of the identity of the individual soul or spirit and the cosmic soul or spirit." Of course, samadhi may be a long time coming. Frankly, it doesn't matter because there are lots of other benefits to be had along the way. For example, meditation helps reduce stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure, and improve concentration, clarity and creativity. Or, to paraphrase Patanjali's classic comment about yoga

TM - Hinduism In A Scientist's Smock! Pt 1 TM - Hinduism In A Scientist's Smock! Pt 2 Watchman Expositor Article on TM Article by Dr. Björn Överby ... Trancenet, excellent research articles. After more than 20 years Transcendental Meditation (TM) is still trying to pass itself off as "a neutral scientific meditation technique." This is despite losing a law suit that went as far as the US Supreme Court in the mid seventies. Please view this article which appeared in the Daily Telegraph to read about TM's latest attempt to pass itself off as non-religious! Anyone who desires to take up TM needs to know what they are getting involved in, and these pages attempt to show that TM, its Puja or initiation ceremony, its mantras and practice are all very much part of the Hindu system of religion. TM is not compatible with any form of Christianity To understand the meaning of the initiation ceremony/puja and the real secret of the mantras read the two documents, 'TM - Hinduism in a Scientist's Smock' opposite. The Background to this page consists of the "No Entry to TM" logo. "You shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free"

To English version Forschung über Transzendentale Meditation (TM) bei der Schwedischen Luftwaffe Zulassungstest von Luftwaffenpiloten zeigt tiefgehende Effekte von Transzendentale Meditation auf die geistige Gesundheit Dr. med. Jaan Suurküla Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Test der Abwehrmechanismen (DMT) ad modum Neuman DMT-Neuman lässt tiefsitzende Störungen erkennen Die Psychologie sieht einen engen Zusammenhang zwischen der Neigung zu psychischen Abwehrmechanismen in bedrohlichen Situationen und dem Vorhandensein tiefsitzender Erinnerungen an oftmals früh erworbene angsterzeugende oder gar traumatische Erfahrungen. Diese Erinnerungen sind für bewusste oder unbewusste in der Persönlichkeit verwurzelte Ängste verantwortlich. Wenn eine derart traumatisierte Person in eine ihr bedrohlich erscheinende Situation kommt, neigt die Angst dazu durchzubrechen. Also anders als starke und harmonische Personen, die die Bedrohung realistisch wahrnehmen und sie adäquat handhaben, mobilisieren traumatisierte Personen sofort realitätsverzerrende Abwehrmechanismen. Die Abwehrmechanismen haben die Funktion angsterzeugende Eindrücke zu unterdrücken. Bemerkenswert verbreitet Die praktische Erfahrung mit DMT-Neuman hat die psychologische Erkenntnis bestätigt, dass die meisten Menschen mit den angesprochenen psychischen Unzulänglichkeiten sich völlig normal benehmen, es ei denn sie geraten in eine extrem belastende Situation. Ausgedehnte Tests haben ergeben, dass nur ein sehr geringer Anteil der Bevölkerung frei von Abwehrmechanismen ist. Sehr umfassende Erfahrungen aus der Psychotherapie haben gezeigt, dass im allgemeinen eine Psychotherapie von 20 bis 25 Jahren oder länger erforderlich ist, um auf diese tiefsitzenden unterbewussten Störungen, die Ängste hervorrufen und nähren, einwirken und sie heilen zu können.

x News from Islamic World Community Roundup ... Al-Nasr Exports APRIL 2000 MONTHLY * Vol 14-04 No:160 * APRIL 2000 / MUHARRAM 1421H email: editor@islamicvoice.com OUR DIALOGUE By S. Abdullah Tariq What if I am not a Muslim? Can we sell Qur'an? Does Islam Permit Meditation? The 'Myth' of Islam being the fastest Growing Religion! What if I am not a Muslim? Q. What if you are not a Muslim? Does it mean you will go to hell? (S. John; sibjohn@yahoo.com) A. It will not be hard for yourself to work out the answer if you knew what Islam is and who is a Muslim. Islam means total submission to the only God of the universe. A Muslim is that who tries to lead the life according to His will after he has taken vow of submission. You would surely want to know what are the requirements of submission but let me first answer your direct question i.e. what happens to those who do not submit. Assume there is a person of exemplary good conduct and behaviour in your locality. All neighbours can swear to his kind heartedness and humane disposition. Then suddenly one day the police raid his house and it is found that he was the spy of an enemy nation. Can any of all his good works rescue him from being put behind bars forever or till his deportation? No, the faithfulness with the realm you live in is the first condition to let you live freely and happily in the state. All the good works come afterwards. On the other hand a criminal when caught is released after receiving the respective punishment. Loyalty towards the Sole Sovereign of the whole creation is the first condition for the right to live freely and happily forever. This loyalty is called Faith or Imaan in Islamic terminology. There is no question of deportation even as there is no other God or Sovereign of any other universe. The sentence for rebels is hell. There are three main requirements of Faith.
