Meditation provides a deeper appreciation of the interrelatedness of all
things and the part each person plays. The simple rules of this game
are honesty with yourself about where you are in your life and learning
to listen to hear how it is. Meditation is a way of listening more
deeply, so you hear from a deeper space, exactly how it is. Meditation
will help you quiet your mind, enhance your ability to be insightful and
understanding and give you a sense of inner peace.
If you meditate regularly, even when you don’t feel like it, you will
make great gains, for it will allow you to see how your thoughts impose
limits on you. Your resistances to meditation are your mental prisons in
miniature.
When I asked Maharajji how to meditate, he said, “Meditate like Christ.”
I said, “Maharajji, how did Christ meditate?” He became very quiet and
closed his eyes. After a few minutes, he had a blissful expression on
his face and a tear trickled down his cheek. He opened his eyes and
said, “He lost himself in Love.” Try the meditation of losing yourself
in love….
