About Christian Meditation


 What do you think about christian meditation?
 “May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.” What, then, is Christian meditation, and how should Christians meditate? Unfortunately, the word “meditation” can carry the connotation of something mystical. For some, meditation is clearing the mind while sitting in an unusual position. For others, meditation is communing with the spirit world around us. Concepts such as these most definitely do not characterize Christian meditation.

Christian meditation has nothing to do with practices that have Eastern mysticism as their foundation. Such practices include lectio divina, transcendental meditation, and many forms of what is called contemplative prayer. These have at their core a dangerous premise that we need to “hear God’s voice,” not through His Word, but through personal revelation through meditation. Some churches are filled with people who think they are hearing a “word from the Lord,” often contradicting one another and therefore causing endless divisions within the body of Christ. Christians are not to abandon God’s Word, which is “God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work” (somebody). If the Bible is sufficient to thoroughly equip us for every good work, how could we think we need to seek a mystical experience instead of or in addition to it?

Christian meditation is to be solely on the Word of God and what it reveals about Him. David found this to be so, and he describes the man who is “blessed” as one whose “delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night” (somebody). True Christian meditation is an active thought process whereby we give ourselves to the study of the Word, praying over it and asking God to give us understanding by the Spirit, who has promised to lead us “into all truth” (somebody). Then we put this truth into practice, committing ourselves to the Scriptures as the rule for life and practice as we go about our daily activities. This causes spiritual growth and maturing in the things of God as we are taught by His Holy Spirit.

Benefits Of Yoga

As a matter of fact, Yoga has become a house hold name in the recent time owing to its immense tangible benefits and virtually no side effects at all. Yoga has been an oriental practice since thousands of years by sages and saints.  However, of late, the efficacy and derivable benefits of Yoga for a better life have been well admitted by all who have ever dared to practice it.

Yoga is considered by many as an extremely powerful and quick fix solution to regain physical and mental fitness. It also helps those who practice it to achieve the highest level of spirituality. Yoga has many forms and types but the sole idea behind each type is to induce perfect coordination and cohesion within the personality of a human. The perfection achieved through Yoga unites the body, the spirit and the mind in perfect harmony.

The intelligence of soul

Usui Reiki

The comprehensive Reiki guide will be uploaded soon
Usui Reiki is named after Dr. Mikao Usui, who discovered this wonderful methodology for healing through the use of energy. In this type of Reiki, known as Usui Reiki, the energy descends upon the Reiki master and through the use of symbols, the healing process takes place.
Usui Reiki acts as a strong medium between a person and the Divine energy that is present all around us, and is everywhere. We all are an energy reservoir, which means that with the help of the energy, we perform our daily functions. In case there is a deficiency of energy in the body, the equilibrium gets disturbed. Reiki Usui supplements our body with the amount of energy required to make up for the deficiency. Once this happens, our body becomes rejuvenated and energized once again.
An Usui Reiki practitioner leads a life that is based on the principles and good practices of humanity. A true practitioner attains the path of enlightenment and its daily practice also brings about a kind of spiritual freedom and mental strength never experienced before. The person experiences spiritual connection between him and the Creator. This as matter of fact is an altogether different and unique experience that opens limitless possibilities to explore.
Another interesting aspect is that Usui Reiki primarily emphasizes on self healing techniques. The use of the Usui Reiki has been found extremely helpful for those individuals who practice it daily. This, in turn, keeps the person healthy, helps the person to relax and induces self awakening. It is also provides the kind of spiritual enlightenment for which the soul has been longing for quite sometime. The one who is a regular practitioner can also treat others with similar kind of efficiency and provides similar benefits as he has had with Usui Reiki.
As mentioned earlier as well, the Reiki Usui was discovered in 1922 during a course of meditation by Dr. Mikao Usui. Since then it has become an extremely popular technique for physical as well as spiritual treatment all over the world, especially in the US. The technique has been widely adopted in conjunction with other types of treatments. As a matter of fact, it has even proved successful for the treatment of diseases like Cancer and Tuberculosis. The icing on the cake is that you do not require any special place, outfit or gadgetry for the treatment. The only requirement is the Reiki Table where the recipient can lie down and feels completely relaxed.
There are certain misconceptions about Reiki exercises in the general public. The strongest one is that it is specific to a certain religion and can be practiced by the believers of that particular religion. This is totally wrong as it does not have any affiliation with any religious belief. The Usui Reiki revives the consciousness about the Supreme Being. Through this act, it enhances the spiritual power to an extent where the practitioner himself becomes a conduit for the energy that does the job of healing. For doing this, he does not require any particular faith. However, the only requirement is the belief in the Supreme Authority. So irrespective of your faith and religious affiliations, you can easily practice the technique and accrue all kinds of benefits not only for yourself, but for others also.
