meditation
is a process
not have increasing knowledge everything that size a
thing
there's a desire to know something word
to learn something about yourself it there's no other way to learn
meditation is just one of those things that you know it's tapping into
a for lack of a better term the bar the universe
you know whatever is you imagine that
power to be %uh you know the universe is this around us
record a vid a run meditation
is way to access that
basically what you doing is your learning to focus on
one thing at the moment exclusive with everything else
so that you learn to focus you focus inward
and basically what you're doing is
visiting your dinner so what you find their
is the difference in each individual
of where you go for some people it brings them into a clases de peace
for other people who energizes I'm a
a foreign skeptic trial lawyer
I don't take eloy
very
well I don't suffer fools lightly even of
often like foolish and but I think meditation really has something
for even the most practical skeptical
people in the world like myself in fact I think
the trial bar would be much
better off if we all meditated
I really do I know we would in fact it might be a good idea
to meditate in the courtroom and calm things down
I'm rock connected
you know and we are committed to an is about to leave stood out to me
aspects of
you know me not one
that allows me to look at life told specter more
love compassion on spec my fellow brother
I do believe that it's that its a I'm West
to try to make yourself a better person I mean I
I find that that's print at the bottom line for
for everyone in it was able to or desires to
continue with with meditation is this desire to
make yourself a better person on
whether it's mental healing emotional healing physical healing
but it I think it's often tied up into a healing contact the way it is for me
they can actually Scholl meditating mind versus a mind that is not
meditating mind simply shuts down
and during that period full-dress every
super 8 San re bills itself
so that when we come out of meditation feel refreshed
in where more ready for the world when all it
and all that it brings to its involvement
we get pulled in so many directions in our lives
and its is sometimes hard to know which is the right path to us
you know because they're competing
forces around us everybody wants us to to take care than everybody wants us to
to do whatever they have in their minds
butts
to be able to sit and think
this is where a minute that manage because that's me
that really resonates with me that's who I am
the other things a secondary this
this one right here this is what I'm gonna do that comes
because you have taken the time
to sit silently
and find that voice inside you the I'll
the idea of like when you're gonna fall asleep and they tell you to come cheap
me in meditation
the fact that you took the time to come cheap
youth deviated you no longer focusing on one thing
now you've taken your mind away from the focus on your breath
the focus on your meditation now you're focusing on sheep jumping over a fence
or something else
so you'd deluded the whole purpose
the meditation process itself
is a process from going from me outer
to the in there
our entire life Ford Focus outward our job
our friends our livelihood it's appalling outward focus
your I'll taking what I call
of a journey to the wonderful world with it
and 0
you interpret what you see there what you feel their
and I'll it's not a matter of controlling it and
guiding it to where it wants to go it kind of
takes you to where you need to go oh
when we focus outward we all know that its
0 it takes effort and it's tiring and
the meditation process simply is
reversing that outer focused to an inward focus
win your consciously thinking of something and then you come back to your
graph
that changeover is is where the growth begins to take place what happens
is that the time that your mind is focused on your breath
increases while after time a meditation
I'll the time that you're mind wonders
are you are just flitting around
0 that decreases so that overtime
and the balance changes completely so thatin
there'll be times that you meditate and another for more groomer
the
when we change that energy from outwitted
split-second just that 1000 number sec
it begins to slow the mind downed
your repetition
my mind becomes lines
minute really doesn't take that long for one minute a day
are for 10 minutes a day were not worried about the world
and its outward energies we're focusing
inward to repair our truce sound
our heart our sole our visit I'll
being on every level where the growth takes place
is in there changeover from the
conscious to the unconscious cuz
have a my only four
the fact and
in this in the in the same way that any arm
pleasurable experience is self-reinforcing
and and lead you to want to come back and repeated
I think that's true meditation I get a.com
I get a peacefulness I get a focus I've heard people say that it's
almost addictive are
it become so peaceful and so-called
that once you get there in the first time you hit it most people say
this is work why did you take me so warm to find
this place and once they found that
waz within themselves
thinking go there anytime meditation
on dad is very basic for me
is
eighty desire to
it's almost the the Serenity Prayer to accept the things which I cannot change
and and is you know the wisdom to know the difference
up what I can and cannot change and it's that it's that fact that gives me almost
that that I see a world which should change because I would like to make it a
better place
and but but I myself to not change those things that I need to know
where I can be helpful and where I can't be for me
I had a come to the understanding of his webcam so dependent on other drugs in
the first place
you know and meditation was agree Avenue
to look for 10 and and I'm stayin other reasons why
not allow that to happen the weather was and security of course up the
I'll fear you love me too
to CNN was and except my spirits what it was
can't really let it go and two and still it's okay
that's okay enough to put in so much judgment
you know what the typical vertical base prospectus so much judgment
other things out there that think so said or my experiences in life
is no reason to judge ourselves
he had no reason to do that it keeps ask him
moving along in our lives it keeps us from enjoying the moment from being
mindful
he keeps his and mindfulness the first step is to get beyond morrow
once we get beyond my we start to make the seasons with her
art hi now this is the transformation that's happening
today this is
directory cells love the meditation process
where people are people and treat others as
well its respect ourselves its whole new
human it's being created
through these various spiritual process
when I was younger I was judgmental and
and perhaps I continue to be judgmental and
a you know hard on people this kind of thing and I don't want to be that way
I i want to accept people places and things
at their level in which they're coming to me and so I want I die I'm
me too and set up giving my information out to you is who I am and what I am
I would like to stop me and accept
you and to really look at you would pay attention to you so
its end and that's the other thing is pain attention to what is
out there without bringing my own personality
needs wants desires into it
meditation is becoming more popular the stress levels
which are every there's just no waiting
and meditation it's just aggressed great from that level
stress according to the old books at the old
eating its refer to it for
level of consciousness which is beyond awaits
sleep or dreams things
now the fourth level has no problems you can't bring problems
the relationship between dream in meditation
dream your body his meditation your body
is a week I'll we know they're a dream-like is very important as a way of
tapping into our unconscious
cell meditation enables
enables us to do the same thing when we're
relatively conscious just kinda neat that sound like you know you have to be
sleeping
and dreaming to tap into this
mara your cell every time you take a breath
are your your breathing in for conserve energy that surrounds
meditation gives you the chance to breathe in
with out all that increments without all the car confirmed that goes around
so meditation brings us beyond the
vicious cycle fly to
a peaceful quiet place where we can then look at our
other life and hopefully
change things the sound to the car horns
does sounds everyday life we learned
not to block them out but we don't here's a minute
the whole idea of meditation is to get beyond the Act mine
actually to put it another way we need to step out of the way
and were interfering with our system
and its ability to carry on its necessary phones
if we can just take our mind
set it aside the body knows what to do
and it will heal itself to this
quiet times through this process 0
well love with then
know that Excel
crisis Buddha and all the other great teachers
great spiritual teachers all delivered the same message
meditation is that the route if all of them
just like a little current me year you know
and I lives is so busy that we miss it
historically people who want to teach meditation
just bring the historical context outta you know the the Jewish tradition for us
to say well you know the rabbis a
you know the 808 a century would do it meditate this way and you can too
and and so I I think it's perhaps in an effort to popularize meditation but
whatever whatever gets one you know to the gate
you know I'm I'm forms meditation
is really something that anybody who is a Christian or Muslim or Jew neediest
whatever
in there daily life for our weekly
life should not fear that this is in any way it compatible or inconsistent with
their other religious practice
I go to a Christian Church yeah I have for many years
there's nothing inconsistent are incompatible
were at odds with any other religious practice
my it's a calmness that carries into the different parts of my life
now I've been a member of the church for 40 years and I'm a deacon
and the chair the Deacons you know but but this is not a religious
it's a spiritual to me spiritual experience because I am
I'm dealing with the spirit in me that thing that's bigger than me
and dealing with that but it's not I don't have to
there's no Creed is no anything its religious
there's no doctrine there's no buddy here
tell you what to believe a and
it's really a method to process more than it is
and ideology everybody is in a different wavelength everybody's moving
in another direction that's right for them
in their culture you are by
going inward actually going outward seeing the connection
feeling the connection with the whole universe in that sense it's something
like
buddhist above kinda like the Buddhist idea
you know were all interconnected and if I
you know blown a butterfly here it may affect
another butterfly around the rest of the world
to drop the religious trappings I think would make it much more
available to people it doesn't need to have that
because that's not what it is it doesn't have anything to do with got
you know it has to do with us
are
closely I thing we become more tolerant
because we're not thinking with ego like Bihar
I mean p.m. feelings for every girl
so there when we am feeling in those
healing not dominated by
I'm bigger than you perhaps to her the
then thing every sound or
quickly and more true
meditation is hard we don't live in a society
where sitting still is really on you know it's not a good thing to do said
still were supposed to get out and
me you know do something you know whenever we try to play someone else
we are not feeling comfortable with inner self
so meditation surprises shedding all the space if
and putting our true self ball the man leading arduous
selfish I'm the movie
as only it can do
when we come ourselves we make decisions spontaneously
and decisions are correct decisions
am
annotation improves your everyday life
improves every minute that living whether we're at work or at play
or even its some things that
meditation can help you with or home emotional distress
bomb physical distress bomb
psychological which is the other half a promotional
I was a trial lawyer and so I was used to going to court
arguing with people all the time at talking all the time
for a living and a meditation was a way
learning to shut up and listen to my inner self
rather than focusing so much on the outside
I started meditation actually
while incarcerated and and program the farm errant
about meditation I wasn't actually in a drug treatment program in prison
now sheik imagine doing yoga meditation
behind bars you know what a difference it makes a difference added to the
energies and personalities
but I give it a try and they gave me a thin film
of of peace and K conserve energy
connectedness part and allow me to connect my higher power
begin my spiritual journey wells across red some other reasons
why people meditate is for stress reduction
for high blood pressure there's physical reasons
their spiritual reasons some are in search
%uh their higher power others have
physical ailments that's all reduce the amount of stress
I feel when are I'm in those work situations were normally I would feel
stressed because the amount of work or
the peso worker timelines are deadlines
we live so much of our lives in the external we have our jobs we have
are families where moving moving moving as stressed as
is the television there's ads everything the newspapers
bad things happening all the time in the world
so this it gives me a chance to Jess
cool and and get rid of that just
forget and just try to find
that river inside me and float
under either for a little while
it's more about finding yourself
you're in finding someplace within you that
that you can live in a little bit more easily the new best word to describe it
as
is joy and love and happiness in this awesome
awesome film naked and I'll each experience a comment is different
usually when I when I get to that particular Steve
saw some film and once I walk out Phil
the more focus I'll able to concentrate
more mindful I'll I'll things going on
concentrate better and use that to sleep better assault
sounded the bretton that simple
school that we carry within
when we dream that by Gration them element I'll
style actually enlivens brain cells that are not in use
we become more away will become the more
alerts now my yes you using
that would be helpful business when have so many it so much competition
so many ish well at be helpful in like
it's helpful every ok I have what what they call monkey mind we all do it
buddhist term on he and head
and I would like to see more clearly and to understand
more clearly and instead admit reading my mind go from this to this to this
in meditation I have learned to tame my mind if you want it to
hope you clear your money it's a great thing for them if you want to help you
get more focus wonderful know if you want to just two
hope you calm down that's what it was if you want to be more outgoing it could
probably do that much
but I set my two entire schedule
of my life now that I retired around this meditation
everything else come second if someone told me that I could not do this anymore
not have I'm I'm I'm gonna do it the mind controls the body the man
really if we wanna win who are
whole-cell in advance our own self
into this fast pace and humanity and meditation
is the answer everyone
as their own
trajectory and they need to chase follow it and listen to what that is
be brave and the new and do what is right for them
the mall meditation is based on
ok being attentive
on the spot user within the body or without
but
everyone being the different characteristics
I'll some meditations are more comfortable than
others so it remains to each individual
to find the process that take me that he's comfortable with and that works
for him
what meditation did for me is it karma and my wife
I use to be stress from the time I woke up till the time I went to bed
it was go go go go push push push push push
never happy just always
just caught in the rat race all day every day
it's helped me in so many different ways that you know they're very subtle so it
gets hard to
to think about them and express them
with with the water clarity but I know I feel
that there's been a Venice and thats
probably is important as anything else I think it various with each individual
than that the
the change in how media is and how how
much progression there is that I am
0 I just keep thinking that I'm on the path and every
time I com I feel a little bit different
about it you know a little bit more connected to my
inner self the changes
that we see from the people that come to meditate
can be instantaneous unlike
systems where there's belief in bomb
this is a mechanical process and it's now only if you do
this the results are this as a key became more comfortable with that I
started noticing
huge changes things that used to drive me
absolutely crazy didn't matter anymore they just rolled off my back
I didn't get upset at the little things that I used
my blood pressure
dropped dramatic the bottom line
is it gives you whatever it is you need to get out a bit
the No
it's a disk
it's not something that you just do and
all the benefits just come it's a discipline that you
you have you work at it's the most car
pleasing peaceful work you ever do in your whole life
them connect with my my higher power and Internet themself
you know site at times will spur do this
a few minutes a day the man we are transformed we still have the world the
deal with %uh
but we're a little bit stronger our vision is a little bit more
clear and this is why
people from all over the world showing and meditating
in various ways up
we live in this culture reverie he's running around trying to make money
choir choir choir have have have
and this is really about being you're being
just getting in touch with something that has no
media practical purpose
but over time to realize it means a lot more than making money
and having not so fancy stop
so it it really ok you too throw up some of those
ok those shackles up
meditation makes us realize what's important
we all have goals in like and sometimes the goals are not avail
I mean a person might think so much
of its business or up
livelihood that money becomes that brings dominant
thonk and then one day realizing
it without help
nothing else
home soul we begin to realize
wetzel as
those mom balance is the key
the first thing you do when you're bored stick graph
the last thing you do when you pass this epic scale
everything else happens in between if we can come down that space
in between we can change our lives exponential
