Meditate in a Holy Place

                                   

As part of pilgrimage, tour or by special chance we get an opportunity to visit holy places, prayer halls, meditation halls and sanctum sanctorum. Those are the sacred places to meditate and enter into a sublime state of mind. I remember my first experience of sanctity was at the ‘Temple of Consciousness’ at Aliyar near Pollachi in Coimbatore. The meditation hall was opened for all. As I entered the sanctum something extraordinary happens in me. The total silence changes the thought level and a feeling of positivity brightens me up.

The atmosphere in a meditation hall is filled with good vibrations and the divine energy elucidates bliss and ecstasy. The fights in our mind will get a sudden break down and our mind will get tuned to the point where we want to be. The positive energy awakes the divine energy within us and leads to a meditative state within seconds. Some other places where I experienced positive vibrations were Swami Vivekananda rock in Kanyakumari, Rishikesh, Haridwar, Varanasi, Lotus Temple, N. Delhi, Buddhist Bliss Culture Mission, Perth and Bahayi Temple, Chicago. The silence leads to the feel of oneness and enables to experience the calm and peace. Don’t miss an opportunity you get in a holy place to meditate, it measures more than what you think.

Sit down comfortably in the space provided and feel relaxed. Close the eyes. Take a few normal breathes to get in tune with the environment. While inhaling, draw the divine energy into your mind; spread it throughout your body passing through the life centres. While exhaling, send out the energy along with your energy of consciousness. Do the meditation at least for 10 minutes. The more you are able to meditate the more you can experience the divine energy of both the celestial and terrestrial passing through your body to experience with yourself and the love for the universe. The combined energy coming out from you from this meditation returns to you connecting with the power of the ‘Holy Place’. Slowly open your eyes and conclude meditation with gratitude to the Almighty.
