EXPERIENCES IN MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

Do not be unnecessarily alarmed when you go above body-consciousness. Do not stop your practice. The Lord will take care of you and guide you. Be bold. Look not back. March on, O hero! A flash is a glimpse of Truth. This is not the whole experience. This is not the highest experience. Reach the Infinite, the acme or the final stage. During meditation, you will hear various sorts of Anahat sounds, viz. that of conch, bell, flute, lute, drum, thunder, etc. You will see brilliant lights in the space between the eye-brows. They are of various types like pin point or like the sun, the moon or the stars.

Thy steps are not steady in the spiritual path. Do more Japa. Intensify your Vairagya. Sit and meditate in one place. Wander not. Serve.

- Swami Sivananda

Love is selfless service, mercy, compassion, fellowship, helpfulness, understanding,

tolerance and goodwill. Therefore cultivate love. Love all. Befriend all.

OBSTACLES IN MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

The chief obstacles ibacin meditation are sleep, tossing of mind, the rising up of latent desires, lack of cely, spiritual pride, laziness and disease. Company of worldly people, over-work, overeating, self-assertive nature, are all obstacles to meditation. Conquer sleep through control of breath, Asanas and light diet. Remove tossing of mind through control of breath, repetition of the Lord's name, austerity, concentration, etc. Destroy mundane desires through dispassion, discrimination, study of sacred books and holy company. Shun the company of worldly persons who always talk on sexual matters, money and worldly things. Observe moderation in diet. Obey the laws of health and hygiene. Pray to God. Have perfect ethical discipline. Keep the ideal always in view. The obstacles will be overcome. Remember, meditation is not wishful thinking. It is positive, spiritual experience.

Without spiritual life, the mere earthly life is a big zero. - Swami Chidananda

OTHER

MEDITATIONS

Swami Sivananda Meditate on the all-pervading nature of air. This will lead to the realization of the nameless and formless God, the one, living Truth. Watch the flow of breath. You will hear the sound "Soham"—"So" during inhalation and "Hum" during exhalation. Soham means "I am He." The breath reminds you of your identity with the Supreme Soul. You are unconsciously repeating Soham 21,600 times daily, at the rate of 15 Soham per minute. Associate the ideas of existence, knowledge, bliss, purity, peace, perfection, love, etc., with Soham Mantra. Negate the body while repeating this and identify with the Supreme Soul. Meditate on the Absolute. Think that there is a living, universal Power which underlies all names and forms. Associate the attributes of infinity, eternity, immortality, existence-consciousness-bliss absolute. In due course, the attributes will dissolve in pure, attributeless meditation. You cannot find refuge in your sons, father and relatives when you are overtaken by death. Be virtuous. Meditate on God and conquer death. - Swami Sivananda Love is the greatest healing power in this world. Love of God really means love of humanity .

OTHER MEDITATIONS

Swami Sivananda

Meditate mentally on the effulgence of the sun, or on the soft light of the moon, or on the twinkling light of the stars. Meditate on the magnificence of the ocean and its infinite nature. Then compare the ocean to the infinite nature of God, and the waves, foams and icebergs to the various names and forms of the world. Identify yourself with the ocean. Become silent. Meditate on the Himalayas. Imagine that the Ganges takes its origin in the snowy regions of Gomukh, flows through Rishikesh, Haridwar, Varanasi, and then enters the Bay of Bengal near Gangasagar. The Himalayas, the Ganges and the sea: these three thoughts only should occupy your mind. First take the mind to the snowy regions of the Himalayas, then along the Ganges, and finally to the sea. Rotate the mind in this manner. Gaze steadily on the formless air. Concentrate on air. 

…

Have holy aspiration. Grow in purity. Meditate seriously. Entertain lofty, divine thoughts.

nitiation is not mere utterance of words. It is a communication of an energy, a force. It is the will of the Guru, as it were, entering into the will of the disciple, where both have to be on the same level. Otherwise, there cannot be initiation.

MEDITATION OF JESUS

Swami Sivananda

Place a picture of Jesus in front of you. Sit in your favourite meditative pose. Concentrate gently on the picture, with eyes open, till you feel the strain. Rotate the mind on His serene face, beautiful locks, compassionate eyes, the cross on His chest, His lotus feet, on the spiritual aura around the head, and so on. Think of His divine attributes such as love, magnanimity, mercy and forbearance. Think of the various phases of His interesting life, the "miracles" He performed, the various extraordinary powers He possessed. Then close your eyes and try to visualize the picture. Repeat the same process again and again.

I am not far away from God. God is never far away from me. "e; If you live your life in the light of this truth, you are on the way to immortality, to liberation, to divine perfection.

MEDITATION ON LORD HARI

Swami Sivananda

Place a picture of Lord Hari in front of you. Sit in a meditative posture. Concentrate gently on the picture. Rotate the mind on His lotus feet, yellow silken robes, the golden garland set with diamonds, resting on His chest, His lustrous face, the gem-studded crown on the head, the disc in the right upper hand, the conch in the left upper hand, the mace in the right lower hand and the lotus in the left lower hand. Then close the eyes and try to visualize the picture in the same manner. Repeat the process again and again. Devotees of Lord Buddha can meditate on His form in a similar way, with the association of his particular attributes.

Service of the suffering humanity is the essence of any religion. There is nothing nobler than the service of humanity. The great end of life is Self-realisation through selfless service and meditation.

MEDITATION ON 'OM'

Swami Sivananda

Have a picture of 35= in front of you. Concentrate gently on this picture with open eyes. Associate the ideas of eternity, infinity, the symbolism of creation, etc., when you meditate on Om. The humming of bees, the sweet notes of the nightingale, the seven notes of the scale in music—all sounds are emanations of Om only. Om is the origin of scriptures. Imagine that Om is the bow, the mind is the arrow and God is the target. Aim at the target with great care and then, as the arrow becomes one with the target, you will become one with God. You can also recite Om while meditating. The short accented Om burns all sins, the long-accented gives liberation, and the elongated bestows all psychic powers. He who chants and meditates upon this monosyllable (Om), meditates upon and chants all the scriptures of the world..

Be still. Be in tune with the Divine will. Let go all the worries. Ease out all cares and

anxieties. Get deep down into the innermost corner of your heart and plunge into the ocean of peace

Swami Chidananda

In moksha, the individuality ceases to be and one exists in all places and at all times, i.e., becomes infinite and eternal.

Swami SivanandaDuring meditation the mind becomes calm, serene and steady. A single idea alone occupies the mind. Deep meditation cannot come in a day or a week or a month. You will have to struggle hard for a long time. Be patient. Be persevering. Be vigilant. Be diligent. Cultivate burning dispassion, fervent aspiration or an intense longing for Self-realization. Gradually you will enter into deep meditation and the superconscious state. All doubts will be harcleared through meditation. A mysterious, inner voice will guide you. You will yourself find the way to place the next step in the rung of the Yogic ladder,

BENEFITS OF MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

If you meditate for half an hour daily, you will be able to face the routine of life with peace and spiritual strength. Meditation kills all pain, suffering and sorrow. Meditation is the most powerful mental, nervine tonic. Divine energy freely flows into the aspirant during meditation, and exercises a benign, soothing influence on his mind, nerves, sense-organs and body. Meditation is the mystic ladder which takes the Yogic student from physical plane to spiritual realm. Meditation is the key to unlock many of the secrets of life. Meditation opens the door to intuitive knowledge and realms of eternal bliss

If your life is very suc

cessful only upon the field of worldly activities and you completely neglect and forget your spiritual activity, then your success is a failure.

PRACTICE OF MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

Meditation is an unbroken flow of thought of the object on which one meditates. Meditation follows concentration. Concentration merges in meditation. Meditation is the seventh step in the ladder of Yoga. Concentration, meditation and super-consciousness are the last three stages in Raja Yoga. When you practise concentration and meditation, you are aiming at the attainment of a state of super-consciousness in which you have union with God. Meditation is freeing the mind from all thoughts of sense-objects. The mind should dwell on God alone during meditation.

Time is life. Time is more precious than the most valuable thing in this world. time ill-spent is life wasted away. Make the best use of time.

SIDDHASAN

Swami Sivananda

"Siddha" means an adept in Sanskrit. Since great adepts used this Asan, it bears the name Siddhasan. Siddhas (perfected Yogins) speak very highly of this Asan. Young Brahmacharins and those who attempt to get established in celibacy should practise this Asan. Sit on your seat. Stretch the legs forward. Bend the left leg at the knee and place the heel at the soft portion of the perineum, the space between the anus and the scrotum. Then fold the right leg and place the heel against the pubic bone or just above the genitals. The genitals should be nicely arranged in such a manner that no pressure is felt. Keep the body erect and place the hands as in Padmasan.

Our life should be one of extreme wakefulness, constant alertness and activity upon the path that leads to blessedness.
