Add Meditation To Your Life Whether you are a student, a business person or a busy Mom , meditation will help you to deal with life’s challenges in a positive way. Meditation can lower your levels of stress and therefore have a positive effect on your body and mind. But the benefits of meditation go much deeper than relieving stress. Through the practice of meditation a person can overcome anxiety and depression and experience an actual inner spiritual fulfillment or happiness. The secret to gaining the benefits is to practice it regularly. By starting your day with 15 minutes of meditation, you will find that your whole day flows more smoothly. The timeless art of meditation has been practiced by saints and sages since ancient times to bring about the joyful state of self-realization. In this consciousness a person is free from temporary worries, anxieties and concerns and is immersed in a higher spiritual happiness and inner peacefulness. At the Sedona Mantra Meditation Center, ourFREE! meditation classes give you practical tools to add meditation to your life. We clearly explain how meditation works and give you the opportunity to experience the benefits yourself.

These are only a few of the sacred mantras and spiritual sound vibrations describing and glorifying the Supreme Spirit/God who has unlimited names, forms qualities and pastimes. Real religion means placing one’s mind, heart, and entire being upon the Supreme Spirit/God, not once a week, but 24 hours a day, every day. This can be accomplished by the constant hearing and repeating of God’s Holy Names. You can say or sing these mantras individually or in groups, with or without instruments, sitting, standing, lying down. There are no hard and fast rules.

“Our help is in the Name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.” (Psalms 124:8)

“There’s no difference between the Holy Name of the Lord and the Lord Himself. As such, the  Holy Name is as perfect as the Lord Himself in fullness, purity, and eternity. The Holy Name is no material sound vibration, nor has it any material contamination.” (Padma Purana)

“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Acts 2:21)

 “Chant the Holy Name, Chant the Holy Name, Chant the Holy Name. There is no other alternative … for God realization in this age of Kali (chaos).” (Srimad Bhagavatam)

The Supreme Spirit /God is not a Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Jew or Buddhist. Because He wants all of his children to be happy, He has given us this easy, practical, non-sectarian method of worship in these troubled chaotic times. If you practice this form of meditation—hearing and repeating of God’s Names—on a daily basis, you will awaken your dormant personal relationship with the Supreme Lord. You will become attached to Him and detached from this mundane world. You will actually experience real happiness and inner peace. As Lord Jesus Christ taught, we will be able to live in the world, but not be of the world.  A lotus rises above the water untouched by impurities. Similarly a person can live in this world untouched by anxieties…Haribol -“Chant the Names of God”.
