The peace starts with me as an individual. For every individual who
comes to meditate and develops that peace It means ‘another’ individual who is
out there who is forming part of what could have been eventually be a complete
body of people so strong that peace can actually be achieved. I think there’s
another wonderful opportunity here for all the people of South Africa.
It
doesn’t matter how poor you are.
Meditating is something that doesn’t cost you anything and can
change your life. You can change your life almost overnight. So, you don’t have
to worry about belonging to a religion or a creed. It doesn’t make any
difference if you do belong to a religion or creed. Meditating cuts across all
of those lines and all it does is provide you with a wonderful life with an
even better way of practicing your own religion with a magnificent way of contributing
towards this country
with the most needed thing today – peace.
When I started with
meditation here At the Johannesburg Meditation Centre I followed the guidelines
that were given This is what I have found very useful Not having been
meditating this way before Following the little light... the ball of light which
went through the 7th position of the mind through my body I follow that step by step To the centre of my
abdomen Then concentrate on my...the centre of my being
At that particular point When I have my mind focused on the centre
of my body And I visualise this light I try to expand that light And in the
gentlest possible way I concentrate.
It’s a need for concentration And there is a need for relaxation at
the same time
So in discovering that balance I then find that my visualisations
change
I feel I get a floating sensation And a white light that almost
dissolves my body has then been covered in a white light The actual physical
part of my body Seems to get less and seem to start joining with this light And
that gives me intense peace at that particular time Then in the process of
coming out of it I think that is very important for me Is that the feeling I
have is carried over
for quite sometime into my life When I leave the meditation centre I
have that wonderful feeling within me Something that I would like to share With
other people
