SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS -- 2

WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE OF STILLNESS

How to know God? By being still. How to be still? By practice of meditation. Meditation is the art of being still in body, in mind, in heart, in will, in the entire inner being, and enabling the higher Divine Consciousness in us to have direct, immediate perception of God. – Omkarananda

Most of us don’t realize how much we sleep even when we are not in bed, even when we seem to be very active. This is because our activity is often mindless, habitual, addictive, inattentive. Stillness leads us to a new style of awareness. We become aware of our greater reality.

Spirituality & Practice offers many ideas and resources on the practice of stillness
