Becoming Like A ‘Virtuoso’ In Meditation – Part 2
Meditation deepens in stages.
As you begin sitting at this early stage of this current meditation,
you’re becoming more aware of the subtle nuances in the experience of any tensions, fears, or anxieties… relaxing them and just letting it all go…
Don’t sit there an pine about the past, or fret about the future.
If a thought arises, let it… notice it, then let it go.
It’s very important to simply not have a conversation with the random thoughts
that arise from our subconscious through our bio-computer-brain.
Like a computer that is made to constantly
compute, calculate, and do software checks…
We can sleep our computers…
And we can hibernate our bio-computer brains,
Or at least give them one single task, and that is
to stay with ‘one pointed awareness’.
Once you’ve ‘swept through the body’ for tensions or concerns…
Sit in present moment awareness.
If a sound is heard, mentally ‘note’ it, then let it go and
go back to sitting in present moment awareness.
If a thought pops up, and they will… do the same,
mentally ‘note’ that this a thought of something that is
not occurring in the present moment, then let it go
and go back to sitting in present moment awareness.
Whatever thoughts or distractions arise, don’t follow them.
Don’t have a conversation with your thoughts.

This is where you will shift your awareness from
a broad-spectrum mindfulness
of everything that can be sensed in the present moment,
To only one object of mediation…
That is the breath.
Along one’s Spiritual Path, meditation is just one part of
the ‘Union of Mind, Body, and Soul’.
The higher states of consciousness will reveal
the un harsh-able Bliss of Realizing our True Nature.
The Awakening of this ‘Self Realization’ unfolds
a perspective of Enlightenment that can never be lost.
Even if you don’t have ambitions for full enlightenment
or to experience the higher states of consciousness…
Or
if you are simply beginning a Path towards those ambitions
and seem a long way away…
The peace and calmness in each ‘sit’ will feel like Grace
and a welcome refuge from the chaos of this crazy life filled
with the less evolved that have not learned how to
live mindfully with loving kindness and unconditional love.
Amen ~ Namaste~ Peace, Peace, Peace…
Namaste means
“My soul honors your soul. I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides. I honor the light, love, truth, beauty and peace within you, because it is also within in me. In sharing these things, we are united, we are the same, we are one”.
