Download or read book Meditation alone will not aid true spiritual development written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, William Q. Judge, Damodar K. Mavalankar, Godolphin Mitford, Clara M. Codd, Proclus Lycaeus and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2023-05-15 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature strives to contain Spirit and detain it here on earth, but Spirit ever strives to be freed from its earthly prison and return to its divine abode. The correct apprehension of Philosophy can help devotees to Duty and Truth to distinguish between Spiritual and Psychic wisdom. Only True philosophy, i.e., the Wisdom of Love, can help remove the weeds of dogma and correct the errors of human fancy. She is Penelope-Sophia, the loyal wife waiting for Odysseus-Christos’ return. Meditation proper is Spiritual Seership. It leads to conscious realisation of the Truths that underpin and sustain Cosmos and Man, Ideas and Forms. It bridges “the known” or phenomenon, with “the unknown” or noumenon, and instructs inwardly focused minds to identify with All, work with Nature, and live for All. Meditation is silent and unuttered prayer, the ardent turning of the soul towards the divine. It uplifts lower minds to higher realms of pure consciousness by catalepsy of the physical body. Then, by suspending the brain’s mechanical action, the Adept can see as clearly as Truth Itself. Such a deliberate withdrawal of consciousness is a magical skill that leads to the contemplation of celestial powers. Meditation is Theurgy or White Magic, Iamblichus’ Manteia, Apollonius’ and Plotinus’ Union to the Deity, Theosophy’s Raja-Yoga, the Ishvara of the ancient Yogin, the Samadhi of the modern. Psychic powers are far more subtle intoxicants than the gross physical energies. Despite of the name, clairvoyant vision is nothing but clear. Inactivity of the physical body does not indicate a condition of inactivity. For the uninitiated, “sitting for yoga” is invariably fatal. It encourages mental passivity which, in turn, aids the development of mediumistic states where one can readily fall prey to the caprice and malice of mischievous embryos of human beings. All yoga practices have disastrous results unless guided by a competent teacher. A Master of Wisdom advises concentration upon the Higher Self within the Heart: Place your love, trust, and confidence in your heart, and retire there when the battle grows fierce. Practise the habit of careful and constant concentration of mind upon every duty and act in life, and one day you might be able to kindle the Sacred Fire. But unless you are capable of unremitting devotion to truth and virtue, and of guarding Self against self, you are more likely to lose your way in the shadows than to see any real light or gain insight. Those who wallow in the mire of exotericism know not what it is to live in the world and yet be not of the world. Beware, O Lanoo! Read Nature’s Finer Forces. There are no extant works on effective and safe practice and those purporting to be are full of blinds. Which of the Two Paths wilt thou choose, O Lanoo?

Download or read book EFT for Meditation written by Charles B. Crenshaw, Jr. and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EFT for Meditation, by lifelong meditators and certified EFT practitioners Carol E. Crenshaw and Charles B. Crenshaw Jr., combines EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping with meditation for the enhancement of both modalities. Those who meditate know that many obstacles to calming the mind and relaxing the body arise during meditation. EFT can help clear those obstacles by releasing doubts, fears, and emotional disturbances, enabling the meditator to gain the full body-mind-spirit benefits of meditation. Likewise, meditation facilitates the EFT process by bringing the contents of the unconscious to the surface, exposing the limiting beliefs and disturbing memories that are hindering one’s living to one’s full potential. Identifying such obstacles to full potential is integral to EFT, and meditation can speed the process. EFT for Meditation, unique among books on meditation or on EFT, has equal value for advanced meditators, beginning meditators, those with advanced EFT skills, and those learning or new to EFT. Hundreds of studies show the healing benefits of meditation and EFT when practiced alone. Combining both produces a powerfully transformative effect.
