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
