Meditation is about mental transformation. Meditation is more than relaxation and feeling good. The questions we need to ask ourselves about our meditation are: Am I changing? Am I kind? Am I more compassionate and less judgmental?
It takes more than one morning or one sitting or one weekend to go into these questions and go within. When people say they don’t have time to meditate, are they really saying, “I don’t have time to listen to my heart?”
It’s a continuum of looking at our meditation practice and noticing what is changing for good in our life.
Is what I am meditating on for the benefit of all?
Am I being more loving, kind, compassionate, and joyful?
What am I willing to transform?
What is the focus for my meditation?
Am I willing to focus on peace?
Notice what happens when we abide in peace.
How are we more peaceful with ourselves and one another?
