“Every morning birds would sing
Do you remember
Those special times
They’ll just go on and on
In the back of my mind” –
“Remember the time’ by Michael Jackson

You are blessed today for all your good thoughts, words and actions of the past. The times you helped someone. The times you brought laughter into a sad room. And the times you were uniquely, you.

Think of a special time in your life. And express gratitude to the people and places that come up in your memory. They too have played a role in blessing you today.

How many of you have kept journals or diaries while growing up? Books that contained your most private of thoughts and most precious of words that reflected your inner self at its most authentic, pure and peaceful level.

How did you feel during writing? Peaceful, still inside, oblivious to the sounds and the chaos around you. And so relieved to just get the words out.

Your probably didn’t know it then, but you were meditating during the act of writing. Finding the little spot of peace within you. Finding answers. In a place or environment of stillness.

Meditative writing is a form of meditation where in you can either:

  1. Get into a meditative state before you pick up your pen or strike the key board and allow your subconscious mind to direct you.
  2.  Become one with your pen and keyboard and make the whole process one of peaceful expression

Benefits of Meditative Writing

  1. Greater clarity. When you write down your thoughts and see them on paper or on the screen. Meditative writing helps you to relax and see things clearly.
  2. One route on your journey to self discovery
  3. Slows down the mind and breath to the pace of the pen/kb giving space n expression to the subconscious mind.
  4. Allows you to stay in the present moment, builds greater self awareness.
  5. Great release for unexpressed/suppressed emotions like anger, resentment, sadness, grief
  6. Brings out challenges and helps you find your own solutions.
  7. Refreshing, its like rebooting your mind
  8. Powerful tool to stretch your mind, can be done anytime and anywhere
  9. Record of your own emotional/spiritual growth
  10. Healing tool, used successfully for those who have suffered a trauma or long term illness

How you can do Meditative Writing

To begin keeping a meditation journal, first pick out a nice notebook and a pen or pencil that suits your style. It is important for us to like the feel of the pen, and the look of the notebook and paper. These kinds of things may seem insignificant and unimportant, but they are like the subtle qualities in the food we prepare or the clothes we wear – they reflect who we are, and what our tastes are, so if we choose them carefully, we will be more inspired by them and inclined to write down our daily observations and insights.

Keep the journal nearby, and begin by always writing entries before and after meditation. Even if you just write a sentence, it is a good exercise to get you in the habit of putting some of your feelings and thoughts on the page. Later you can set aside time, just as you set aside meditation time, to write about your meditation practice in more detail. Or you may be satisfied to just write longer entries at the end of your meditation sessions.

The True Sound of Truth – Buddhist Parable

Buddhist Parable, Om Mane Padme Hum

An old story speaks about a similar problem. A devoted meditator, after years concentrating on a particular mantra, had attained enough insight to begin teaching. The student’s humility was far from perfect, but the teachers at the monastery were not worried. 

A few years of successful teaching left the meditator with no thoughts about learning from anyone; but upon hearing about a famous hermit living nearby, the opportunity was too exciting to be passed up. 

The hermit lived alone on an island at the middle of a lake, so the meditator hired a man with a boat to row across to the island. The meditator was very respectful of the old hermit. As they shared some tea made with herbs the meditator asked him about his spiritual practice. The old man said he had no spiritual practice, except for a mantra which he repeated all the time to himself. The meditator was pleased: the hermit was using the same mantra he used himself — but when the hermit spoke the mantra aloud, the meditator was horrified! 

“What’s wrong?” asked the hermit. 

“I don’t know what to say. I’m afraid you’ve wasted your whole life! You are pronouncing the mantra incorrectly!” 

“Oh, Dear! That is terrible. How should I say it?” 

The meditator gave the correct pronunciation, and the old hermit was very grateful, asking to be left alone so he could get started right away. On the way back across the lake the meditator, now confirmed as an accomplished teacher, was pondering the sad fate of the hermit. 

“It’s so fortunate that I came along. At least he will have a little time to practice correctly before he dies.” Just then, the meditator noticed that the boatman was looking quite shocked, and turned to see the hermit standing respectfully on the water, next to the boat. 

“Excuse me, please. I hate to bother you, but I’ve forgotten the correct pronunciation again. Would you please repeat it for me?” 

“You obviously don’t need it,” stammered the meditator; but the old man persisted in his polite request until the meditator relented and told him again the way he thought the mantra should be pronounced. 

mantra-om-mani-padme-hum-27490078The old hermit was saying the mantra very carefully, slowly, over and over, as he walked across the surface of the water back to the island.

Healing Me. Healing You.

who is a healer

Healers have no saintly haloes over their heads. No super powers either. They’re just people who’ve faced unimaginable depths of pain and have emerged knowing that NO ONE ELSE should have to face what they did alone. They make it their mission to help ease the suffering of others. Healers offer a hand in tough times. Endless tissues to wipe away the tears. And a heart that feels the pain sometimes too much. Healers learn that compassion and care doesnt mean absorbing what you’re going through it means genuinely caring for the suffering of another understanding fully well that the patient is in full charge of his or her own karma and in no way can the healer interfere with it. Its energy working at subtle levels yet respecting the boundary of the individual. – Mita Bhan “Excerpts from Meditation”

Space Clearing with Agarwood

space clearing with agarwood

agarwoodcleanse

You know it’s time for a space clearing session when people start falling sick too often, worrying needlessly and always feel tired even in their own bedrooms. Space clearing is the purification of the atmosperic energies. And unlike other alternative healing remedies which take time to deliver results, the results here almost instantaneous.

There are countless ways to purify your living space ranging from healing crystals, chants, havans, himalayan singing bowls, aromatherapy etc You may like to experiment with different forms of healing alone or in combination. Your best guide is your own intuition.

Personally I’ve found aromatherapy works very well as it purifies the scent of the air and unconsciously we breathe in all that healing goodness, cleansing us internally as well. A session lasts about 15 minutes and is best done early in the mornings after Meditation or during Dusk – a time which many ancients seers believed to be the time of maximum negativity on Earth.

My alltime favourite space cleanser is Agarwood. Also known as Oudh, it’s a beautiful wood bark that’s been hailed for centuries for its superlative healing powers and soothing fragrance.

An instant uplifter only a 2cm piece of the bark is needed. You can burn it in an aroma burner or place 4 pieces in the corners of your space. “Agarwood calms the nervous system, expels negative energies, brings alertness, relieves anxiety, invokes a sense of strength and peace and enhances cerebral functioning. It helps create harmony in your home.”

For those who’d like to use it with their meditation, nothing could be better than Agarwood. Buddhists use agarwood for transmutation of ignorance. Tibetan monks use it to bring energy to calm the mind and spirit. The Sufis and Japanese Shaman use agarwood oil in their esoteric ceremonies. It enhances mental clarity, opens the third eye and all of the upper charkas while calming the entire system

Almost char black in colour, agarwood delivers instant relief and within hours of burning, you may feel the whole atmosphere of the home changing for the better.
