    Meditation

    Hi

    i here the feeling that one achieves through meditation is amazing, i my self have never truly experienced it, but i would very much like to, i think the closest feeling i have gotten to meditation is when i saw and touched the western wall in Jerusalem(any one know what i am talking about).....

    to those of you who meditate what form do you use... the budas way, japanies sufie chinies etc or just your own tell me

    i am especially interested to here from those of you who use the Sufi way
    of using music and poetry to meditate

    unfurtently i don't think Judaism has a meditation that is of its own
    i think many times it is other meditation forms that they have mixed in most likely india or zartosht or sufi so it is isnt the essence or the core and that what i need to fined the core i might just go to india who knows

    any one meditate here


    G-d determines who walks into your life....It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.

    Mike, what are you trying to accomplish. There are as many meditation style as there are people..lol
    I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
    I would be pure, for there are those who care;
    I would be strong, for there is much to suffer;
    I would be brave, for there is much to dare.
    I would be friend of all—the foe—the friendless;
    I would be giving and forget the gift;
    I would be humble, for I know my weakness;
    I would look up and laugh—and love—and lift.

        Because the most yoga classes they have here (West) is not really Yogic related.

          prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them.

            Why Meditate

            It is interesting to me how meditation has become so popular these days while 20 years ago it used to be some sort of a taboo. Humans are quite ignorant beings. They follow whatever the trend is. But back to your question regarding meditation. From personal experience, be very careful as you are talking about a subject which requires someone who knows what to do. And that person you can't just go find in any corner. Meditation in it's truest sense is a way to get closer to God. So, if that is your only intention ask for help from the source and you will be guided and you will find a teacher who will teach you the methods. But things are much easier said than done and I will not elaborate.
