” So Grateful to This Meditation As It Is Showing Me the Path to the True World “

 

So grateful to MeditationI used to dread walking to and from work. I was practically at work in my mind already and began getting stressed out about the day before I even started working. When leaving I would be thinking about what I needed to get done next or play back the day in my mind and judge whether it was a good or not. I rarely would be able to just enjoy the moment. Now I just appreciate nature during my walk! This meditation really helped me stop a lot of needless and stressful thinking.

Over the past year that I have been meditating with this meditation I noticed I have a lot more energy.  After a day of teaching preschool I would plop down on the couch, watch television, eat some dinner and go to bed. I rarely had energy to do much more than that.  When I started meditating I noticed I wasn’t taking naps anymore, I had lost weight, my body felt lighter,  I was motivated to do other things after work and my overall health felt much better. I used to get sick all the time from the children, but since this meditation I rarely get any symptoms of sickness.

The relationships with my family and friends have been greatly improved. Even though I live far away from my family I still managed to get stressed out talking with my parents. Since this meditation, I am now able to see how wonderful both my parents are and I have very enjoyable conversations with them. Before I always felt I was being judged or I was judging them by the smallest things that were said, even if I tried not to, my mind just did it. Even relationships with my friends have become much simpler and enjoyable.

My constant seeking for spiritual answers and ways to live better have ceased. I have realized we don’t need to add or gain anything to understand the true nature of the Universe. We have accumulated so much garbage in our minds which makes our bodies feel heavy and a consistent yearning to feel better. The human mind has many ways of making quick fixes to feel better, but I have realized that subtraction is truly the most affective answer.

Since I started this meditation so much has changed for me. I have really been able to see and understand how self-centered the human is, which has led me to know the true importance for everyone to live together in the world as one. This meditation is able to bring forth the most genuinely happy true self. I know where I am going now. Living on this earth makes so much more sense. I am able to be much more genuine and honest with people in day to day situations. I am so grateful to this meditation as it is showing me the path to the true world. The meditation method is perfect as it is. It is very simple and anyone who is willing can do this meditation easily. I encourage anyone and everyone to open their mind now to live together as one by subtracting the self-centered mind. Why wouldn’t anyone want to live in complete freedom of mind and everlasting happiness? I don’t know.
