Relaxing Meditation Music with Ocean Views, 2 ½ Hours of Tranquility

CHRISTIAN MEDITATION Quote, September, 2015

“Contemplation is a grace, it’s a gift. There is no technique that can twist God’s arm to give us contemplation, but we have to be prepared. We have to be ready for that. So the meditation is our way of just being there, being ready, like in the parables of the Kingdom where Jesus says, you know, you have to stay awake for you do not know what hour the master’s going to come back. Staying awake, staying alert, keeping your lamps trimmed – so that’s what saying the word is.”

CHRISTIAN MEDITATION Quote, October, 2015

“Sometimes when you are meditating you can come to a very quiet and clear place in yourself. It is what the Buddhists would call ‘clear mind’, where the mind seems to be like the sky that has no clouds. You say to yourself perhaps: This is a good place to be. My mind is clear, my mind is open; I’m feeling peaceful. I feel the presence of God. And you may say to yourself: “I have no thoughts”. But the thought “I have no thoughts” is a thought. So, as long as you are thinking like that, you keep saying the word….

The deeper you go, of course, the more God can flood your lives with this love. It is just a question of whether we want to go deeper or not. So, you don’t have to evaluate your meditation. You don’t say was it a good or bad meditation? Just be faithful to it and you will see the fruits appearing.”
