"Meditation is a mental discipline that enables us to do one thing at a time." (Max Picard) There is no "right way" to meditate.  We all are busy people and most of us have 10,000 thoughts running through heads.  We forget to take a moment of our time and to focus on ourselves. When we are in this spot we can pull back from it all and allow ourselves to focus on one simple thought by focusing on a sound, an image like the sunset, the feeling of our own breathing. At first I could only keep my fo …

I started the Maharmitta Meditation group at The Center in Tenley-town for the past 2 years to teach "Maharmitta Meditation - deep breathing and meditation" (see www.maharmitta.com). It helps one to relax, reduce stress, increase lung capacity (help asthma sufferers manage their conditions). Since last year, I started to teach "Maharmitta Relaxation - A slow movement and stretching" to the residents at the Mary's House (Assisted Living) in Rockville, Maryland, and to the monks and lay persons at …

… The myth has to do with making the droning sound and performing something we call circular breathing which creates the illusion of either playing for a very long time without taking an inbreath or simultaneously breathing in and out, a clear impossibility. Playing the didgeridoo well is a creative, intuitive or right brained activity, However before achieving the ability to function at this level, it is necessary to learn certain basic left brained techniques. I have carefully analyzed and diss …

… With the help of conscious breathing - breathing and knowing we are breathing - we are able to touch and be nourished by the peace and joy that are available within and around us, in the here and now. With continued practice, we shall touch and understand the roots of the pain that lie deep within us, such as fear, anger, despair, thus making transformation and healing possible. The practice of mindfulness is the practice of love. Mindfulness relieves suffering because it is filled with understa …

The initiate’s personal energy is charged with an iota of the rejuvenating eternal energy of the Mahavatar Babaji. Consequently, the initiate’s progress is accelerated. This progress cannot be achieved merely through knowledge acquired from books or the internet. Mikao Usui (1865-1926) rediscovered an ancient yet …
