Jet City Orange Guided Meditations

Jet City Orange Guided Meditations

"I’ve prepared a set of guided meditations. There are six different versions, each with slightly different wording. After you hear my voice there's a pause of 10, 15, or 20 minutes and followed by the sound of 3 bells. My suggestion is to try all of the variations and use the one(s) you like. Try rotating them. Choose a time period that works for you. Sit for longer periods as you become more comfortable meditating."

Eckhart Tolle Meditative Talk for Forty Minutes!


 

Eckhart Tolle Meditation

The genius of Tolle is very apparent in this talk; it lasts about 40 minutes, and there is dialog throughout, but it makes for a good meditation none-the-less. He is "pointing" to spaciousness and stillness that you can embrace in your practice...

Vipassana Meditation as Taught by S.N. Goenka

http://diydharma.org/vipassana-meditation-track-3-sn-goenka



I have just completed my first 10-day Vipassana Meditation course in Sweden; see www.dhamma.org for a schedule of "workshops" - the meditation technique of Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha.

It is doubtful that I will be posting additional meditation links in the future - I have shopped around for 8 years now, utilizing the below listed meditations on a daily basis, but I will be dedicating myself to this practice (one hour in the morning and one in the evening, as recommended).

The technique must be learned at one of the 10-day courses, or the meditator will not come close to the benefits, knowledge and/or "results" of this wonderful and deep practice.

All the best to you and I hope you find a practice that suits you and brings bliss. Be happy, be happy... May all beings share my merits, my peace, my harmony and my liberation.

Poetry & Spirituality

http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/modern_us_poetry/106991



This is a first for this site; no video and no sound. Like Eckhart Tolle's videos, this poetry is full of healing energy, and succeeds at pointing to what cannot be named, learned, taught, tamed...

"Poetry is the language vehicle of spirituality. Because spirituality is of a different plane of being from the physical and mental, only metaphor can attempt to express the essence of spirituality. One of the foremost poet's of the spiritual is the great yogi, Paramahansa Yogananda. And one of his most beloved volumes of poems/prayers is Whispers from Eternity.

A "Prayer for a United World" opens Metaphysical Meditations, including the following lines:

May the heads of all countries and races be guided to understand that men of nations are physically and spiritually one . . . . Let us pray in our hearts for a League of Souls and a United World.

Following this prayer for a united world, the foreword tells us that:

"Meditation is the science of God-realization. It is the most practical science in the world. Most people would want to meditate if they understood its value and experienced it beneficial effects."

The great yogi goes on to tell us the purpose of meditation is the attainment of the awareness of God and the soul's eternal oneness with God. Because meditation uses a high form of concentration, the chanting or repeating of certain affirmations in the form of songs and poems is very beneficial."
