Spirit – Releasing the Light Within



                           Preparing for Meditation.

               Never  meditate  to  relax,  relax  to  meditate.  It  is  also  very
               important to meditate with a purpose in mind. For Spiritual
               meditation  that  purpose  is  always  to  enable  your  Spirit  to
               remove itself from the confines of your ego, and for a brief
               period to return to its true home, the Spirit World. This does not
               mean that your body is devoid of Spirit, that is fixed for the
               duration of this incarnation. It is a shift of consciousness and
               could  be  likened  to  going  asleep.  You  are  still  there,  body,
               mind and Spirit but it is your Spirit that becomes conscious
               now that the ego becomes dormant.

               The first requirement to make this event possible is a safe and
               secure venue. In order for your Spirit to feel it is safe for it to
               rise to the surface of your being you must ensure that there is no
               likelihood of you being disturbed during the process. The next
               requirement is that you wear comfortable clothing so that there
               will be no discomfort that may disturb you. Then there is the
               chair you sit in. The seat must be a comfortable height from the
               floor, your feet should be able to be flat on the floor, and your
               back  should  be  well  supported.  It  is  not  necessary  that  you
               remove  your  shoes.  Arm  rests  will  help  support  arms  and
               wrists.  The  room  should  have  subdued  lighting,  and  have  a
               table on which to place a candle. There will be a need to have
               heating  to  make  the  space  as  neutral  as  possible
               temperature-wise.

               It is always good to meditate as a group of likeminded people.
               There can therefore be one member who is nominated as the
