“In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth.” Mahatma Ghandi

What is meditation?

Meditation is defined in the Merriam-Webster dictionary as either engaging in contemplation or reflecting or to engage in mental exercise (as concentration on one's breathing or repetition of a mantra) for the purpose of reaching a heightened level of spiritual awareness.  It is not thinking. The challenge is to stop our conscious minds from thinking that endless chatter and noise of thoughts.  "Quiet the mind and the soul will speak"  said Maya Jaya Sati Bhagavati.

It is is about finding a quiet place where you can be alone seated in comfortable clothing and slow your breathing down and then gently direct your focus on a thought, a positive affirmation, a candle flame, a colour, an emotion or whatever you choose to focus on.  It is a time to find that quiet part within your inner being. That inner stillness, that peace that exists in all of us but for so many is buried beneath layers of worry, stress, work and money concerns. It is just a question of reaching within and releasing that existing inner serenity that exists in all of us and which we were born with.   Most of all it is awareness.  Being aware of the beauty of a single flower, the poetry of a bird singing in a tree, the joy of a flowing stream. 

"All methods of meditation are nothing but methods to help you to remember the art of let-go. I say remember, because you knew it already. And you know it still, but that knowledge is being repressed by the society."  Osho

The benefits have long been known by the oldest religions of the world but now the scientists and therapists are beginning to realise its incredible health and well-being benefits.

“The gift of learning to meditate is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this lifetime.” - Sogyal Rinpoche

My personal journey

I have been meditating for over 5 years now and I have found that my daily practice has transformed my life providing a calm, grounded stillness that enables me to deal with the most stressful days with ease.  My story can be found here.

I firmly believe that if more people meditate, we can evolve as human beings and link together and build a kinder more loving planet and help combat the evil and negativity which is creeping into the world.

And finally.....

I hope you enjoy Meditatia.  The site will evolve as time passes and I hope will help everyone who wants to meditate more effectively and regularly.  Namaste!

If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything.  In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, in the expert’s mind there are few.”   Shunryu Suzuki
