HOW TO MEDITATE
Posted on Mon, 29 April 2013
(SRF Basic instructions, with an exercise in visualization)
INTRODUCTION

The soul, descending from God into flesh, manifests its consciousness and life force through seven chakras, or centres of light, in man's cerebrospinal axis. (These are the "seven stars" and "seven churches" spoken of by St. John in the little-understood book of Revelation in the Bible.) Encased in the bodily prison, the soul consciousness and life force become identified with the physical vehicle and its mortal limitations. Scientific meditation awakens the soul consciousness in the seven cerebrospinal centres. In a state of divine recollectedness, the soul intuitively realises its immortal nature and origin. The various progressive states of soul awakening are accompanied by an ever increasing accession of inner peace and joy. In the most...Read More

1. Regulate Mind.
This means to quiet the mind, to focus it. It is the practice of meditative awareness. We develop this through a number of methods, for example: “breath watching,” “counting breaths” or “listening inward.” You can also quiet the mind by meditating
on certain energy centres in the body, for example: the ‘Tan Tien’.
(This is the centre of gravity in your body: just below the navel and about one third the way in toward your spine.)
You can also concentrate on a picture of a saint or your guru; you can stare at a flame, or the moon, or any natural scene. You can also repeat a word, a phrase, or a healing mantra. And there are many other forms of meditation.
2. Regulate Body.
This basically means relaxing in to different poses and postures. It can also mean practicing certain movement s, such as those taught in “tai...Read More

During her journey home from school her friend had been pushed in front of a bus by 2 girls that they both know and at times friends with. Thankfully there was no physical harm however the girl was badly shaken and very emotional. As they were nearing home they saw 2 police officers walking by and laura decided that it was important to tell them, so they did and came to our home.
Later when i praised Laura for having the courage to do that her response was "its because of all that reiki stuff you do that i could do that, if you didnt do that i would have told you and asked you to tell them".The last time Laura had a hands on treatment was about 3 years ago and when offered she always refuses, today however is testament to the true power of reiki and its principles...Read More
