Way Of Spiritual Journey (Meditation) and Benefits of Meditation

         Way Of Spiritual Journey

People have made a union with the world through nine (9) doors. All day long their attention, the outer expression of their soul, is going out into the world through their five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. Dasam door is closed, but the path of Lord house starts from here. Through Shabd Surat Yog, we can collect our attention at the third eye and come in contact with the Light and Sound of God which is within each and every one of us. Through this divine connection, we can embark on the spiritual Journey.

Benefits of Meditation

People have been practicing meditation for centuries. Today we see a surge in its popularity as new benefits continue to be discovered. Meditation has been proven to benefit both our bodies and minds. Many are now realizing an additional advantage — the tremendous benefits spiritual meditation has an additional advantage — the tremendous benefits spiritual meditation has for our soul.

Benefits of Meditation For The Body

Medical doctors have documented the harmful effects of stress on our physical health. During meditation our body is relaxed and our stress and tensions are relieved. Studies show that in meditation brain waves function at a frequency of 4—10 hertz, giving us a sensation of peace and total relaxation. These states have been proven to help the body in many ways, including improved sleep patterns, lower blood pressure, enhanced immune and digestive systems, and a reduced sensation of pain. When we practice Jyoti and Shabd meditation (Surat Shabd Yog), these benefits come as a natural by- product.

Benefits of Meditation For The Mind

During the day our mind is filled with thoughts. When we sit for meditation and focus our attention at the seat of the soul, the third eye, we begin to quiet the mind. We become at peace with ourselves and are not bothered by the problems around us. By meditating regularly, we develop sustained concentration. This increase in concentration coupled with reduced stress and tension, renewed energy, and improved relationships, helps us achieve success in our worldly activities. We become more efficient and productive and are better equipped to deal with life’s challenges.

Benefits of Meditation For The Soul

Jyoti and Shabd meditation (Surat Shabd Yog) practices are unique. They benefit not only the body and mind, but the soul as well. Our soul, a part of God, has been separated from God, its divine Source. Through Shabd meditation we can return to our true Home. As we connect with the powerful current of Light and Sound within us, it empowers our soul and we rise into dimensions of higher consciousness. The empowered soul is our true nature and a tremendous source of wisdom, love, and power. This is a purely spiritual experience. Ishwar Putra Arun encourages the people to meditate regularly. He knows that by focusing our attention within we are able to experience the inner realms and connect with God, fulfilling the true purpose of our existence.

Benefits of Meditation for World Peace

With regular meditation practice, we come to see each living thing as a part of God. This is a profound realization that brings about a fundamental change in the way we live. We begin to love all people equally and consider them part of our own family. A great transformation takes place in us, and we radiate love and compassion. If each person attains inner peace through meditation and develops love for all, it will not be long before peace prevails on our planet. We will live in unity and harmony with each other. In this way, our personal attainment of peace and happiness will contribute to a golden age of peace and happiness on earth.
