Be happy
no matter the circumstances -
with Eastern Philosophy and Meditation
Eastern philosophy and meditation can help you gain the
ultimate freedom - freedom from oneself and inner peace.
Imagine if you will – just for a moment - that you are
in
prison. You are woken up at 5 in the morning (whether you want
to get up of not), you have no control over your meals – you
have to eat whatever is given to you and you are stuck in a
prison cell all day and night.
What does this have to do with Eastern philosophy and
meditation - please read on.
Ignoring the ignominy, the humiliation of being in such
a
position, the essence of the hardship that you are being
subjected to is that your freedom is restricted. You cannot go
for a walk when you please, in the evening to admire the
sunset, you cannot have a cup of coffee at Starbucks or Barista
whenever you feel like it, you cannot socialize with your
friends and family when you want, and you cannot work at your
job or business. And any number of more such restrictions, loss
of freedoms. I have never been to prison and had my freedoms
taken away by society but there is one prison that still
restricts my freedom and yours as well. And that is the prison
of the self – the separate ego – that keeps me separate from
the rest of existence, from the rest of the Universe. It keeps
me from knowing my true nature, it keeps me from realizing that
the Universe and I are one and not separate, that I am the
Universe (or as is said in Hindu Philosophy – AHAM BRAHMASMI –
I am Brahma).
This is my understanding of the message of eastern
philosophy and meditation - freedom from yourself and knowing
that you are one with the Ultimate.
This promise of freedom from the self – or the ego
separate
from the rest of existence – is what draws me, and many others
to eastern philosophy and meditation. Let me be frank – I am
not enlightened, not a guru, I have not achieved this goal as
yet. But I have taken the first steps towards this goal and am
already enjoying many benefits. In this site I will be your
guide and will explain the concepts of eastern philosophy and
meditation (as best I understand them) and the techniques of
present moment awareness. The benefits of practicing these
techniques are immediate, HERE AND NOW, and available in stages
so you do not have to wait for that distant point in the future
when your self is dissolved and you are fully enlightened. Let
us talk of the benefits.
You will be free from past conditioning. Past memories,
emotional traumas and the like will no longer have a hold over
you. You will be free to enjoy the present moment, the HERE AND
NOW.
- You will not let your hopes and fears for the future
run your life.
- In other words, you will live your life in the
present, in the Here and Now. If you think of it there is really no
Past and no Future. What we imagine to be the past is really memories
recorded in the synapses and neuron of our brain cells. And the future
is no more than our daydreams, hopes and fears, which is also no more
than brain activity or conceptualization. The present moment, the Here
and Now, is all that there is and is the only place where we can live
our lives.
- You will be free, or at least freer than earlier, of
negative emotions such as worry, fear, anger, depression and the like.
If you practice the techniques of eastern philosophy and meditation
that I will be explaining, you will be easily able to manage your
emotions and gradually become free of them.
- You will be able to run your mind instead of your
mind running you.
- You will be in a better position to attain your
goals, succeed in your ventures, and have better relationships. By
freeing yourself of mental clutter and noise, you will be able to break
through the limitations that you have imposed on yourself.
- You will be more original, more creative, and more
effective in your thinking. Dr. Win Wenger P. HD – in his book the
Einstein Factor – says that only when we shift our attention from what
we know to what we actually perceive, are most problems solved. These
techniques will help you to think without preconceiving and will lead
you to think more effectively.
All these benefits are yours by following the techniques
presented in the website and in my newsletter.
So go ahead and explore any of the above links, which
interest you, in which I will present the techniques in more
detail.
P.S – How long will you live in a self-imposed prison.
Eastern Philosophy and Meditation will help you to free
yourself of mental noise, of disturbing and negative feeling
and emotions and all limitations imposed by the false self.
Join the newsletter and explore the site. I promise you that it
will transform your life as it has done mine.
