“From our childhood, we were taught many things. However, has anyonetaught us how to deal with our emotions, how to calm our own mind?

Sometimes you feel sadness and sometimes other feelings may also come up,but they just pass by. An event created an emotion inside you and the emotionagain creates a similar type of atmosphere around you and this cycle goes on.The only way to break the cycle is to observe the sensation as a sensation, de-link it from emotions. It is simple. If you meditate just for a while, you will

understand that. Meditation is an art of doing nothing”.

~ The art of Living

If you can look at theworld with the eyes of achild, you do not need

any answer.Iggy

Going deep down into meditation is the MOSTbeautiful trip ever. It's our primordial yearning. Soeasy, so natural. You simply sit, relax and leteverything happen... surrendering.

But you require an environment that is nurturing,rich in inner stimulus. You deserve to be immersedin an environment which takes care of your uniquebeing from the day you arrive, and works with youto ensure that you enjoy lifelong spiritual grownthrough a creative and joyful journey.

We hope that the pages that follow give you an idea of what it’s like to be part of the London College of Meditation.

“When we are mindful,deeply in touch with thepresent moment, ourunderstanding of whatis going on deepens, andwe begin to be flledwith acceptance, joy,peace and love.”~ Thích Nhất Hạnh

Love Heals

When you work with people, you can work as a duty or you can work with them as a love. There is a lot of diference between these two. Duty is lukewarm, love is passionate. Duty can help, but love can transform. Duty can touch only the surface of the other person because it comes from your head. Love can transform because it comes from your heart. Whenever you are working with people, remember that each person is unique. Youwill never fnd such a person again; it happens only once. Each person is historic because he will never be repeated again. So each moment of contact will also be historical because it is unrepeatable; it is tremendously valuable. So whenever you are helping, help out of love. Flow, and forget helping. Start caring – that is the diference. If you help, you will be at the most a nurse. If you care, you become a mother. Help is a quantitative thing. Care is qualitative, and it shows an intensity; it is a fame.So be deeply in passion. Each individual is representative of the divine. Love him, worship him, respect him, and whatsoever you do, do in deep humbleness. Then you will be helped more than you are helping. Then you will grow more than the person can grow through your help. And there is no other way in the world to learn something than to become a teacher. But take it as a very very sacred and holy afair. Be really sincere and authentic about it. I’m not saying be serious. I’m saying be sincere, because once you become serious you cannot help. Be sincere but non-serious, playful. Take it as a fun – but don’t forget the sacredness of it. When fun and sacredness meet, therearises a quality in you that can help. This is the alchemy of help:fun and sacredness meeting in you.

Meditate regularlyIt would be very helpful to make meditation a regular part of your routine.

Sometimes it was permissible to miss a meal – could even be benefcial – but to missmeditation meant to undo months of work. It is very delicate work. In months someenergy is created, and within days it can disappear – unless you have come to a pointwhich is known as the point of no return. It comes one day. It is exactly the same aswhen you heat water to ninety degrees. It is still water; then to ninety-fve degrees –it is still water. At ninety-nine degrees it is still water and if you stop heating it, it

will cool down; the heat will be dissipated. You will have to reheat it again. But if itcomes to one hundred degrees, then it jumps; it evaporates. It has come to a point

from where a very radical change has happened. The same happens with meditation.You go on accumulating it; it is cumulative. You do it every day – you go on

accumulating a subtle energy in your being. It comes higher and higher and higher:ninety degrees, ninety-nine degrees. If you stop even then, it will disappear. It will be

dissipated, because the whole life is non-meditative and it is easily destroyed. Thewhole world is non-meditative. The people you will be meeting, working with,

talking to, are all non-meditative. When you carry a high energy, people who are notthat high simply suck you – unknowingly. It is just as if there is water – it will startfowing downwards. All energies move downward. People are just like valleys. It is

natural that your energy starts fowing towards them. Their level is lower than yours.Hence regularity is very very signifcant. Otherwise you create something and if you

think ’Now I have created enough; I am feeling very good’, for a few days you will feelgood, but then again the energy will be lost. If you continue regularly, by and by your

level goes higher and higher and higher. One day it suddenly happens that youevaporate. Then meditation is just a natural thing. Whether you do it or not does not

matter. Non-doing, you are still in it. WaLking, you are in it; eating, you are in it;working, you are in it; sleeping, you are in it. Then meditation becomes your whole

life. Before that happens, regularity has to be maintained.

Bon Voyage

The journey is long and the path is pathless –

and one has to be alone. There is no map and no one to guide.

But there is no alternative One cannot escape it, one cannot evade it.

One has to go on the journey. The goal seems impossible

but the urge to go on it is intrinsic. THE NEED IS DEEP IN THE SOUL.

Really, you are the urge, you are the need -and consciousness cannot be otherwise

because of this challenge and because of this adventure. So do not waste time – begin.

Do not calculate – begin.Do not hesitate – begin.

Do not look back – begin. And always remember old Lao Tze’s words:

A tree that takes both arms to encircle grows from a tiny rootlet. A many-storied pagoda

is built by placing one brick upon another brick. A journey of three thousand miles

is begun by a single step.
