Spirit – Releasing the Light Within
Meditation.
There are many forms of meditation, each form related
to some practice or other, like Yoga, or Buddhism. In this case
we are talking about spiritual meditation. Some people
meditate to relax, in spiritual meditation one relaxes to
meditate. Most meditation techniques call on the practitioner to
focus on a topic whereas with spiritual meditation one stills the
mind, one “lets go and lets God”.
When one sits for spiritual meditation the purpose is
set by its title, it is for spiritual purpose. Spiritual meditation
requires that you ‘park’ the body, thus allowing your Spirit to
safely emerge from behind your ego. First one has to dedicate
the space they propose to sit in to Spirit, in other words create a
sacred space. A candle should be lit as a formal request that all
might be under the control and protection of the Divine Light,
of God. Ensure there are no distractions likely. It is
recommended that this is not a solitary practice, rather that a
number gather together in mutual support and intent. A
facilitator should be selected. The facilitator will need the trust
of all present so that they may feel safe and not have any fears.
The facilitator in turn must have absolute trust and confidence
