CHAPTER 11: MEDITATIONS
The biggest obstacle to hearing the whisper of truth is a busy mind.
Conversely, the biggest opportunity to listen to that voice of pure intelligence is a quiet mind. Meditation is often the only way one can quiet the chatter of a busy life or even a not so busy life.
Meditation is clearly an idea whose time has come. Many of the most successful people in all walks of life regularly meditate. More and more schools are teaching children the practice of meditation.
There have been many books written about meditation and all kinds of meditation.
The purpose of this chapter is not to teach you how to meditate, but rather to give you a sample to determine if you would like to begin some kind of regular meditative practice.
I provide several examples of silent and guided meditations that will enable the new meditator to experience the power of meditation and the experienced meditator to perhaps some new approaches.
The audio guided meditations will give you the experience of simply listening to a voice and music as you focus on certain aspects.
