SoulTrends - MBPT Program Experience

I have attended the Meditation based Personal Development (MBPT) program on 2-Mar-2019 and 3-Mar-2019 at SoulTrends, HSR Layout, Bangalore. Dr.Sai Sagar who was working as a Vice President at CTS was our faculty for the program. 

During the two days program the importance and impact of meditation was taught. During the program, Buddha’s Anapanasati meditation, watching our own breath is taught.

How much time to meditate ?

One minute per year of your age. Suppose, if a person’s age is 27 years, he need to meditate for 27 minutes per day.

What is the best time to meditate ?

Anytime. Anyplace. Anywhere. When you are awake and doesn't involve your conscious attention. 

How long to meditate ?

Till thought free state is achieved and maintained.

I have got two important leanings from this program which I would like to present it in the below article.

Lesson-1: When we get stressed, survival mode will be activated in the brain, it induces adrenaline in our body. Since we are not running daily, as in olden days for survival, the unused adrenaline, hardens the muscles and creates pain typically shoulder pain, neck and back pain etc. However meditation reduces anxiety and stress and hence there will be no excess adrenaline secretion in our body.

Lesson-2: All human beings are born with five important abilities namely Innate intelligence, Creativity, Concentration, Self-confidence and Contentment / Gratitude.Our education system, instead of honing these abilities, focuses mainly on money making knowledge and skills. It is the right time to unlearn those knowledge which we have learnt for profession. Consistent meditation would help to enhance our five default abilities. 

What is PREMA ? 

1. Positive emotion & Health

2. Relationship

3. Engagement

4. Meaning or purpose

5. Accomplishment

What shapes our thoughts ( Five things) ? 

1. Expectation

    - from yourself

    - from others

    - from situations and

    - from things

2. Attachment / Involvement

 - to people, things

 - to thoughts, ideologies

 - love with ownership

 - to right and wrong

3. Complex (Inferior / Superior)

 - comparison

 - judgement

 - non acceptance

 - lack of skill, confidence etc

4. Agitation

 - worries about future

 - regret about past

 - fear of injury, death

 - thinking for others

5. Outside-in thinking

 - will be happy

 - will be secured

 - will be fulfilled

 - will be peaceful

 - will be better

 - will be OK... When I Get.

Meditation - Me with my Mind

I meditate so that my mind cannot complicate my life - Sri Chinmoy

We can sit for long hours with our smartphone or Television. However, it is very difficult for us to sit with our own mind, even for one minute. It is when we sit in Meditation all the records ( Good / Bad) that are stored in our subconscious mind will run like a movie in our mind and disturbs us. It is the reason, why many people give up meditation as they don't want to play their past bad history in their mind. 

I have heard of many incidents, who have exited from the 10 days Vipassana Meditation Program within two to three days as they cannot sit in solitude with their own mind. 

However it is during this Meditation process, all the past bad memories are deleted from our subconscious mind. However, we need to be patient and allow all the bad records to be deleted from our subconscious mind. 

Our subconscious mind have record of all the incidents (Good / Bad) from our early childhood. You might have seen in movies how a hypnotists, gets a detailed information (Including the color of the dress) which have happened before 30 Years. 

Once all the bad memory records are deleted from your subconscious mind by Meditation, you become more peaceful and happier. It is the reason all our Saints / Yogis / Rishi's / Siddhar's are happy as their mind is pure and clean. It is during this state, that they get information from Akashic records (It is a Etheric plane, which contains information about Past, Present and Future). 

Edgar Cayce, the American Clairovanynt who have lived in the last century, claims to have power to read information from Akashic records. It is believed that most of his predictions are correct and baffles the scientific world. 

Next time, when you sit in Meditation, if you get a negative thought or incident allow it to flow like a river, with consciousness that it is being deleted from your memory. Happy Meditating Folks. 

3B's Meditation - Instant Meditation

Your Outer world is simply a reflection of your Inner world - Dr.Deepak Chopra 

Whenever I ask my friends, about the reason for not meditating, most of them give me the same answer "Sorry, No time", "Where is the time Bro ?", "Hello, do you know how busy I Am?". Everyone is so busy cutting the tree's, while no time to sharp the AXE. Time is a lame excuse, which I don't agree as everyone have time for WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
