Discussion of spiritual practices: awakening, meditation, and the freedom that cannot be lost or found. All perspectives are welcome; advaita, christian, buddhist, islam or even no perspective at all. Just pointing to that which is nearest and dearest.

sitting in Silence



Meditation can be thought of as taking a break from oneself -- I mean taking a break from the small self. 

When we sleep, when we are fascinated by nature, or when we are engrossed in our work we are unaware of our 'problems'.  Who are we without our problems?

Silent meditation (just sitting in Silence) points to our pristine nature; always available, always peaceful, and always free of problems.

Regular practice (sitting in Silence without expectation) removes the barriers to lasting happyness. 

Give it a try,
