An interesting teaching on why we meditate
I found this teaching rather interesting; so, I thought I would share it. The teaching begins with a question from a student their teacher.
"Why is it advisable for a person to meditate each day and what are the benefits of meditation?"
"The benefits of meditation have been discussed many, many times. Without discipline, there is no control of the wanderings of the mind and its multitude of thoughts, which, in turn, create so many forms. The true benefit of meditation, we speak forth once again: to rise the soul consciousness to realms supernal of peace and beauty while still expressing through the forms of creation.
As the soul enters these realms supernal in the here and the now, there is a great peace that enters and transforms the vehicles through which the soul is expressing. The effects of this transformation are known as perfect peace and perfect harmony and perfect health. A disturbed soul is disturbed by the vehicles of form through which it is expressing. The disturbance is a revelation, revealing to all people that the vehicle through which the soul is expressing has become the superior authority over the eternal soul that the vehicles, the mind and the body, have become the king rulers and there is no peace or joy left at that time."
