meditation and mindfulness
"Meditation gives space in the mind; it gives us the space to experience. Normally, our lives are so cluttered that we don't even have breathing space. But meditation gives us the breathing space so that things can arise, so that understanding and experience can come up. Normally, we are so busy that they can't surface, because there is no room ... meditation is about coming back to our silent inner spaciousness"

Meditation is a state of thoughtless awareness. It is when the mind is calm and silent yet fully alert. A state of complete peace.
In a meditative state you remain fully awake. You train your mind to block out the external world and events taking place around you. The aim is for the mind to be relaxed, clear and inwardly focused.
Meditation is non-denominational. It has been practiced since prehistory by cultures across the world. It is now considered a science, which means that the process of meditation follows a particular order, has definite principles, and produces results that can be verified.
When you train in meditation it teaches you to reach the inner state, the state that is still and focused, where the mind becomes silent. When the mind is silent and you are able to ignore distractions, meditation deepens. Meditation can teach you to see and experience the world with a new found perspective. You can learn what is truly happening around you and within you. It is a process of self discovery. It will make your life richer and more enjoyable.
Meditations goal is to go beyond the mind, our "Ego", and allow us to experience our essence - peace and happiness. Our Ego is the greatest hurdle to overcome during meditation - what stands between us and awareness. Meditation teaches us to once again discipline our minds and to reach the stillness where we are able to experience genuine, deep meditation.
