☮ Surrender ☮

I invite you to have a new discussion about meditation ☮

Do you think meditation is about a clear mind with no unconscious thoughts?

Do you think meditation is about establishing a focused mind?

Do you think meditation is about the release of negative emotions?

Do you think meditation is about getting insights from the universe?

Do you think meditation is about reaching a single-mindedness?

Do you think meditation is about manifestation?

Do you think meditation is about being empty of all thoughts?

Do you think meditation is about creating a mystical experience?

Do you think meditation is about obtaining supernatural power?

Do you think meditation is about self-discipline and self-acceptance?

Do you think meditation is about connecting with your soul and seeking answers?

Do you think meditation is about dropping into silence and listening to God?

It’s all above and more to it ……

May I present this idea for you to ponder:

Meditation’s main purpose is to interrupt automatic thought patterns, breaking the ego mind from a continuous self-inflicted prison of repetition, as well as allowing the Great Intelligence to guide us to a new opportunity and to co-create new experiences for our life.

in the last 16 years, I followed a lot of renowned spiritual teachers and learned from them,  and mistakenly, my ego mind leads me to believe that meditation is all about manifestation or getting something from the Universe ……

I forgot to travel inward, and I forgot that whatever the Universe wants me to have, it has already been given to me.

Today, I finally realized that meditation is about complete surrender. As I don’t make demands or protest to the Universe, just allowing, and accepting, my mind shall not have any craving,  reacting, resisting, judgment, figuring out, or attachment to a specific outcome. Which enables the mind to relax, being an observer. When we trust the Universe’s work it wonders, all those healing experiences and miracles happened are byproducts of stillness and surrender.
