The Benefits Of Meditation

There is one day that I can never forget

There is one day that I can never forget. The Rodney King trial and the Los Angeles race riots that soon followed. I can still see the image of Channel Six News helicopters scurrying the area, taking shots of a city in peril. Thousands of people were running around in the streets, buildings were set on fire, businesses were looted, and police officers worked to try and restore order and peace. Of course, it was absolute chaos. But chaos is only a temporary state of disorder so that consciousness can arrange itself into a higher level of existence.

Very few people understand that progress is really about change. People fail to understand that without interference we will keep repeating the same patterns of behavior without any progress. Every time we start to doubt our perception of reality, we give ourselves a chance to undergo a paradigm shift that will turn the tables for all of humanity. Our external state is merely a reflection of our internal state. Because we don't have a proper handle or understanding of our internal states, that chaos that resides within us boils over into the physical world.

If we don't work to overcome our weaknesses, our weaknesses will overcome us. This happens because we are all on a constant cycle of chaos. However, chaos starts to destroy us when we fail to take the necessary steps to change. I mentioned before that everything in the world operates using some kind of energy system, our digestive system, our endocrine system, even our metabolism. Sickness is a form of chaos. Certain cells in our bodies, or certain elements of the soul are revolting. They are rising up and looting (stealing energy from other parts of the body). Setting things on fire (destroying positive cells or elements of the human soul that are needed to combat disease).

It is through the art of meditation that we can began to understand the workings of our internal state. Chaos destroys a lot of people because they try to remedy their problems from the physical world. However, attacking our problems from within, in the subtle world, is ten times more powerful. We have direct contact with spirit through meditation. And we are not restricted to the laws of the physical world such as time, space and limitations. Chaos destroys us when our internal systems are mismanaged. It is through meditation that we are able to take charge, put out fires, and manage tension before it escalates out of control. Learning the art of meditation is paramount to spiritual development.
