Practical meditation is highly recommended for those who are beginning to discover the beauty and strength of their own inner world. More and more, we human beings are realizing the need to develop the power of the mind, as we try to keep up with the ever-increasing pace of life and its complexities. By introducing meditation into one's own practical life, one not only gains real peace of mind, but also a very positive and healthy attitude towards life. The aim of meditation is to provide a means by which you can become the master of your own mind and your own destiny, and thus acquire constant peace of mind. So, it is essential for you to proceed at your own pace, in a way which feels comfortable. Above all, you need to develop a faith in yourself.
Having faith in yourself means not only having confidence in your previous experiences, but also having the courage to explore what you are going to experience. So, when you sit in meditation you can see if your experience matches up to the information you have been given. If you practice soul-consciousness during the day, you can see if it has the result that the knowledge predicts. By doing meditation you are not aiming for something you have never known before. Your aim is simply to rediscover that forgotten feeling of being so peaceful. When you experience peace in meditation, it feels so natural and easy. It is an effortless thing. Your aim is to be in that experience constantly. Whatever you are doing, whoever you are speaking to, whatever is happening around you, you remain 'Om Shanti', lost in the peace, spreading vibrations of peace to others. Faith needs both understanding and experience to sustain it.
So, make sure that you combine ongoing study of this knowledge with the practical experience of meditation. In this way your life becomes an inspiring source of positivity and happiness for yourself and for those with whom you interact.
