Right now, you are reading the contents of this meditation site. Unfortunately, there are a growing number of meditators who are unable to do so. In the last two weeks, I have been contacted by readers of this site, who live in the States, and they cannot get access. When they try to access the site, they are blocked from doing so.</p>
<p>Text appears that says “You have tried to access a web page that is in violation of your Internet usage policy”. This meditation site has been blocked and labeled as ‘suspicious’ or ‘dangerous website’. This website, <a title="Meditation Under Attack" href="http://www.meditationgold.com" target="_blank">www.meditationgold.com</a> is apparently blocked because it is about the ‘Occult’.</p>
<p><strong>Now, I do not know who is responsible for this, but something is wrong.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">According to the dictionary, <em>occult means</em><br />
<em>1)‘of or pertaining to magic, astrology, or any system claiming use or knowledge of secret or supernatural powers or agencies</em><br />
<em>2) beyond the range of ordinary knowledge or understanding; mysterious.</em><br />
<em>3) secret; disclosed or communicated only to the initiated.</em><br />
<em>4) hidden from view..’</em></p>
<p><strong>This site is purely about meditation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Hundreds of millions of people around the world enjoy meditation. </strong></p>
<p><strong>If you meditate, please share this with other meditators and let them know that they may be next.</strong></p>
<p>But why would ‘someone’ try to block occult material anyway?  Is it that someone doesn’t want the general public to meditate, to become stronger and see more clearly what is going on?</p>
<p>It seems that many societies are set up to keep their people in a state of semi-comatose, subservient ignorance. This is done by ‘dumbing down’ all children and adults  by giving them a poor education, keeping them addicted to the garbage on TV, or to some sport, or soap opera, keeping them financially enslaved and probably physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted too.</p>
<p>Nationalism, sectarianism, tradition, duty, ceremony, royalty and religion, all add to the psychological enslavement of the average man, woman and child. And this is obviously deliberate; otherwise it would not be carried out to such perfection.</p>
<p>Maybe that is why when a web site comes along and offers the direct inner revelation of spiritual light and sound, without needing to believe in anything, without needing to bow down or pay homage to some guy in a robe, without needing to sit in a monastery for a lifetime, without needing an Honor from the Queen, or a Presidential Medal, then, they simply try to block it?</p>
<p>The Occult simply means something that is ‘hidden from view.</p>
<p>So, let us have another look at the ‘occult’ or ‘hidden’ aspects in our society.<br />
Almost all religions claim to represent God or spirituality. No problem, simply ask them to prove it. The problem is, they cannot prove anything. They make promises that you have got to have faith now, and will get your reward in the next life. Meaning they have got nothing, zero, to show you.</p>
<p><strong>Then I guess what religions offer must be ‘hidden’.<br />
It must be &#8216;occult</strong>&#8216;.</p>
<p>If I sold you something on that basis, on the streets of the UK, USA or anywhere else, I would be dragged off to the courts and prosecuted.  In the UK there is a Trade Description Act to protect citizens from con men, people who sell you a story and cannot deliver, but apparently it does not apply to religions.</p>
<p>And what does the word ‘Royal’ actually mean? Do you honestly think they are better than you or your children? Seriously?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>If Royalty are better than you or me, then I guess it must be hidden, because I can&#8217;t see it.<br />
It must be &#8216;occult&#8217;.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Do you think that one part of society should bow and scrape to another part of society? If so, why? Because, according the religious guys, (and it’s always the guys…), we are all equal in the eyes of God.</p>
<p>So either we all start bowing to each others magnificence, or to be practical, we stop all this nonsense, and we introduce a real program to boost the physical, mental and emotional health and well being of all our citizens. This would include philosophy, which would develop peoples ability to think for themselves, and to make intelligent decisions for themselves, rather than blindly accept what is spoon-fed to them, or in this case, what is blocked from them.</p>
<p>And for those who want to meditate, let them meditate, at home, in peace.</p>
<p><strong>And if they want to read more <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation/" target="_blank">about meditation</a> on the internet, let them read it.</strong></p>

<h1>What Is A Chakra?</h1>
<p>Did you know that there are almost 38 million pages about chakras on Google? Yet, over seventy thousand people a month are still typing into Google the search term ‘What Is A Chakra’. Well, what does that tell you?</p>
<p>Seriously, this information, which can be checked with Google, is telling you and I something very obvious. You see, when it comes to chakras, literally anything goes. You can make it up. Many thousands of meditators think that imagining a chakra is actually exploring or experiencing a chakra for real. It is not, it is wishful thinking and fantasy.</p>
<p>There are 37 million pages on Google addressing chakras and a lot of it is conflicting and confusing information. I am using the word ‘information’ lightly here, because a lot of what is written is very poor, to say the least. It is no wonder that seventy thousand confused people are going back to the search engine and typing, what is a chakra?</p>
<p>So if I started to tell you what a chakra is, surely that would only add to the rubbish and confusion on the internet? (I mean if 37 million pages isn’t enough, then me answering the question, is not going to make any difference, is it?)</p>
<p>There are thousands of people on the internet saying that they can heal your chakras, take you on a chakra journey, etc, etc, etc.</p>
<p>As far as I know, only I am saying that I will open your third eye chakra and that you will be able to meditate every day of your life in the light of the crown chakra.</p>
<p>More importantly, only I am saying that if you can let go into the light and sound, that you will discover that part of yourself that is called spirit or soul. You will know what a chakra is for yourself. The real answer to the question lies withiFor you to really discover for yourself what a chakra is, I need to teach you the basics of meditation, which is quite simple really.</p>
<p>For this purpose, I have created a free video series that teaches breath, sound and mantra meditation, and I invite you to explore it at <a href="http://www.meditationclassathome.com" target="_blank">http://www.MeditationClassAtHome.com</a>. Then if you are still interested, I can share guidance with you in my personal meditation student membership site.</p>
<p>You cannot get any of this guidance anywhere else. I am inviting you not to believe me. I am inviting you not to believe any of the 37 million pages of chakra stuff out there either.<br />
Most of what it is written by meditation teachers is written to make you feel good about yourself. That way you will like them, and you will be far more likely to go back to them. But I ask you this. Go and find the old meditators. I mean people who have been meditating for forty or fifty years. You will find that there are very few, because the meditation techniques and dogma that they teach simply did not work. They have gone.</p>
<p>There is no religion here. No dogma. No fancy belief systems that try to understand and make sense of your life. You are simply being invited to stop believing in stuff and start exploring yourself, which includes your chakras.<br />
I will give you the opportunity that no one else is even saying is possible. To go through the<a href="http://meditationgold.com/crown-chakra-sadly-most-people-will-never-see-their-crown-chakra/" target="_blank"> crown chakra</a>, exploring that part of yourself that exists outside of the mind, outside of time, to discover your deepest nature. Then, you will realise for yourself the answer to the question, what is a chakra?</p>

<h1>Meditation Classes</h1>
<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-352" title="meditation classes" src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/imagesCA7G7VWY-124x150.jpg" alt="meditation classes" width="124" height="150" />.<br />
If you are looking for<strong> meditation classes</strong>, then there are lots to choose from. You only need to type meditation classes into Google to see there are literally thousands of meditation classes going on all over the world.</p>
<p>So, how do you decide which type of meditation class to attend? Well, it really would help you to decide which is best for you, if you asked yourself a few questions first. For instance;</p>
<p>A)    What am I looking for from a meditation class?<br />
B)    Do I want stress relief?<br />
C)    Do I want to get out of the house?<br />
D)    Is there a particular belief system that I want to follow?<br />
E)    Do I want to discover more about myself and life?<br />
F)    If so, how committed am I to discovering more about myself?<br />
G)    How much does the meditation class charge?<br />
H)    Is there a particular type of meditation class that I am interested in?</p>
<p>These questions may seem a little difficult at first, but by asking yourself these questions, you may save yourself a lot of time and disappointment in the long run.</p>
<p>The thing is, people who meditate tend to congregate together and share their meditation experiences. So, as they congregate, they also tend to share their beliefs in an attempt to understand their meditation, and understand life itself. This type of meditation sharing, and ideas sharing, tends to vary, depending on the type of meditation classes that you attend.</p>
<p>For instance, you may go to a yoga meditation class, where the emphasis is on yoga postures, with a bit of meditation practice added at the end. Yoga meditation classes tend not to be too pushy on ideas or religious stuff. Often you are allowed to enjoy your yoga postures then simply benefit from the peace of a meditation technique at the end of the class.</p>
<p>However, if you went to a Buddhist meditation class, you can enjoy their<a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation-techniques/" target="_blank"> meditation techniques</a> and practice, and then you are often invited to listen to a discourse on a Buddhist theme.  This theme could include karma, reincarnation, dharma or some other idea that is closely related to Buddhism.</p>
<p>Then there are the many other meditation classes that are associated with various groups or semi religious organisations. These invariably offer simple meditation techniques, then discuss how the meditation fits in with their beliefs.</p>
<p>In my experience, many people attend meditation classes for either a bit of stress relief, a bit of friendship, a sense of belonging or meaning to their lives, and sometimes,</p>
<p>My advice is for you to give yourself permission to consider all the possible reasons you may want to attend a meditation class. Find out which is the most important one for you, then go for that. For instance, if you fancy going to a yoga class, and nothing more, then choose the yoga class.</p>
<p>If you like the idea of going to Buddhist meditation classes, you may not even be sure why, then go to that. Sometimes it is only by exploring and finding out that you discover more about yourself and your deeper motives to meditate.</p>
<p>I personally offer online meditation classes however there are pros and cons to joining my class, and they are these;</p>
<p>1)    You will get access to the most powerful <a href="http://www.meditationclassathome.com" target="_blank">meditation techniques</a> available anywhere on the planet. This is either true or false, and it is very easy for you to find out. Those that join my meditation classes get full access to the most powerful library of online meditation classes available anywhere, but they also receive a new meditation class video from me personally, every single week.</p>
<p>2)    You will discover more about yourself than you ever could have dreamed of.<br />
3)    You will meet other meditators, both online and at my meditation workshops.<br />
4)    You will not get religious beliefs.<br />
5)    You will not get any yoga exercises, so if you need to keep fit, you could always do a bit of exercise each week before you receive the online meditation class video.</p>
<p>Whatever type of <em>meditation classes</em> you decide to attend, give it your best shot so that you may get the most out of it. I wish you well.</p>

<h1>Meditation Courses</h1>
<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-348" title="meditation courses" src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/imagesCAPL09AR-150x150.jpg" alt="meditation courses" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p>If you are looking for <strong>meditation courses</strong>, or a free meditation course, then there are a few things that you could think about, to make your choice an easier one to make. For instance, do you want an online free meditation course? If so, there are hundreds to choose from. Or maybe you want to get out of the house, if so, have a look online for your local meditation course. You are bound to find one not too far away from your home.</p>
<p>The problem is the types of meditation courses on offer vary tremendously, and they offer, or say they offer, so many different things. To help you decide what is the best choice of meditation course for you, I would suggest that you spend a little time asking yourself what you are looking for from a meditation course.</p>
<p>Here is a limited list of benefits that you may get from attending a meditation course in your locality:</p>
<p>1. Social company<br />
2. Meditation practice<br />
3 New friends<br />
4. Less stress and anxiety</p>
<p>If you want to learn from an online meditation course, be it a free meditation course or otherwise, you could experience the following benefits:</p>
<p>1. Watch meditation course anytime<br />
2. Learn meditation in comfort of your own home<br />
3. Make online friends<br />
4. Less stress and anxiety</p>
<p>These limited lists may help you decide, but my advice is this. Ask yourself, ‘If nothing was impossible, what would I really like to get out of learning meditation?’ For instance, many meditation teachers speak of developing an inner peace, or expanding your consciousness, some even speak of attaining the state of Enlightenment.</p>
<p>Whatever they offer, my advice is to ask them to prove to you as far as they can, that they can deliver what they are offering. For instance, if you were booking a vacation, you would like to see pictures of the destination, read testimonials from people who have actually been there, or watch a few videos on YouTube of your selected destination.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the world of meditation is pretty crowded with people who make all kinds of claims that sometimes cannot be substantiated. For instance, some say that by practicing their meditation course techniques you can lead a blissful life, full of tranquility and peace. Ask them to prove it. Rely on your common sense.</p>
<p>Other meditation courses invite you to belief in a spiritual journey, that will end in this life or some time in another lifetime.  Ask to speak to someone who has completed their spiritual journey. Have a list of no nonsense questions, and do not be afraid to ask them. If they cannot provide you with evidence, my advice is to keep looking for that elusive meditation course that is best for you.</p>
<p>I offer a free meditation course at<a href="http://www.meditationclassathome.com" target="_blank"> www.MeditationClassAtHome.com</a>. It consists of 5 free online meditation classes. I show you how to meditate, but more importantly, I show you how to select the meditation course which is suited to your own needs.</p>
<p>I have found, in general, that most people have little or no idea what is possible to discover through the practice of meditation. I am claiming that it is possible for you to discover the answers to the deepest questions you may have about life, death, love, spirituality and the deepest nature of your own existence. I am saying to you that the state of Enlightenment actually exists, and that you can discover it for yourself. I can offer proof of these claims.</p>
<p>My meditation courses are for anyone who want to reduce the stress in their lives or discover their deepest nature. But, you would be unwise to believe me, as the world has plenty of others who make similar claims. So, my advice is to follow my online free meditation course. Then if you are still interested, join my <a href="http://meditationgold.com/category/online-meditation-course/" target="_blank">online meditation</a> membership site.</p>
<p>Ask questions, follow the advice given, and unless you are satisfied, unless you start to experience for yourself, within yourself, dimensions of yourself that you never knew even existed, unless a miracle starts to unfold within you, then walk away and find other <em>meditation courses</em>.</p>

<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OXnALdviz0s?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="480" height="360"></iframe><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-313" title="relaxation and meditation" src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Fotolia_26851081_XS-150x150.jpg" alt="relaxation and meditation" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p>I typed the words Relaxation and Meditation into Google and it said there were 22,700,000 results, that’s nearly 23 million pages on Relaxation and Meditation! So, in the presence of such competition, I am going to tell you the real truth about Relaxation and Meditation. Something that nobody else is telling you, but when you think about it, it is obvious.</p>
<p>First of all, is meditation good for helping you to relax? Yes, it is. In fact it has been proven in many studies around the world, that meditation helps you to physically, mentally and emotionally relax. It has helped people overcome health problems, improve concentration, improve focus and improve output in commercial activities.</p>
<p>Using most popular <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation-techniques/" target="_blank">meditation techniques</a>, such as breathing or mantras, you can definitely experience a drop in your stress levels and you can experience elevated levels of relaxation.<br />
So, what are they not telling you? Well, it would help me get my point across if I could use an analogy.</p>
<p>Imagine you are getting on an old fashioned steam train, you know the sort, swirling steam and blowing whistles. You pass the engine, and you see the bright shining brass nameplate, and you see that this train is called ‘Life’.</p>
<p>Apprehensively you sit down in your seat. It isn’t too comfortable, but it will do for now. You know, or at least you hope, that this is going to be a very long journey. Over time, you get to know many people very well, in fact you fall in love with a beautiful passenger who is sitting nearby. They are all you ever dreamed of in a partner. You pinch yourself, you are so happy!</p>
<p>One day you are chatting with your partner about how stressful the train journey can be at times. Sometimes it’s a bit scary, sometimes a bit boring and at other times its very hard work. So, hearing that a guy in one of the other carriages is teaching meditation, you learn to meditate. You soon feel so much better as meditation and relaxation becomes a part of your everyday life on the train.</p>
<p>As time goes on, and the train steams along, you and your partner have several beautiful children. You are so proud of them and everybody in the carriage says they are lovely kids.</p>
<p>One day you notice that a couple of passengers are missing, and after making a few inquiries, someone tells you that they have died and that you will never see them again. You ask about in the carriage, to see if anyone knows anything at all about death. The only thing that they can tell you is that everyone on the train, including you, your partner, and your beautiful children will all die on this train. No one is getting off any other way.</p>
<p>You sit back in your chair, watching the fields and trees go by. ‘Is this it?’ you ask yourself. The only reply is the constant, monotonous, ever-forward roar of the engine, taking you and everything you love to an ever nearer death.</p>
<p>You sit back and try to relax in your meditation, and it helps, but it doesn’t slow the train down. You meditate more and more but nothing is going to stop the train from taking everything you love from you. You look into the eyes of your sweet innocent children, your sweet, loyal and loving partner, your heart is filled with a helpless, painful and persistent despair. You consider discussing your thoughts about death with your partner, but not wishing to upset them, you stare out of the window, in a state of existential fear. And the train rolls on.</p>
<p>That is how most people live their lives, in a state of silent, existential fear. You can relax all you want on the train, but you know what is coming…</p>
<p>But what if it was possible for you to get off the train? Seriously, what if it was possible for you and your loved ones to get off the train and live forever. Would you be interested? The chances are you would, least that’s what most people would say.</p>
<p>I am suggesting to you that it is possible for you – and anyone else – to leave the train forever. Not in some suicide pact or some other crazy idea, but by using a very powerful meditation technique. Using this technique, you can you realise, you can know for a fact, that you never got on the train in the first place.</p>
<p>Do not take my word for it, you would be silly to. To find out more about these relaxation and meditation techniques please go to <a href="http://www.meditationclassathome.com" target="_blank">www.meditationclassathome.com</a>. You can watch 5 free meditation videos and decide for yourself.</p>

<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pa8sngC-AhM?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="480" height="360"></iframe></p>
<h1>Self Discovery And You</h1>
<p>Many people today use the words ‘<strong>Self Discovery</strong>’, but what are they actually talking about? If you ask them, they will say they have discovered one or more, or even all of the following qualities within themselves;</p>
<p>1)    Courage<br />
2)    Bravery<br />
3)    Kindness<br />
4)    Love<br />
5)    Gentleness<br />
6)    A personal talent<br />
7)    Spirituality<br />
8)    A meaning to their life<br />
9)    A purpose to their life<br />
10)    Etc..</p>
<p>So as far as this article is concerned, I am going to define Self Discovery, as the discovery of your very deepest nature. The reason I am doing this is because, say you discovered that you were a brilliant portrait artist and you decided to devote the rest of your life to painting portraits. Great.</p>
<p>Except one day, you fell over, broke your hands, and you were never able to hold a paintbrush again. In your despair, you turned to many things to help you get through this tough time, including drink and drugs.  But they just didn’t fulfill you, so you decided to try meditation.  In the process of learning meditation, you embarked on an inner journey, to discover whatever there is to discover within yourself.</p>
<p>As time went by you discovered many things. Yes, you are great painter, but you are more than that.  Then you discover aspects or dimensions of yourself that you never even knew existed. Ultimately, you discover your deepest nature, that which is beyond all limits of the body, mind, emotions and talents.</p>
<p>A journey of self-discovery can be made by anyone, young or old, male or female.  As you let go into your meditation, with the right help and guidance, you can discover aspects of yourself and life that you never ever even dreamed possible.  This journey of self-discovery is very, very real.</p>
<p>It is not reliant on visualising anything, <img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-307" title="self discovery" src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Fotolia_9300718_XS-150x150.jpg" alt="self discovery" width="150" height="150" />, indeed it is not reliant on anything except your willingness to let go in meditation, and meditating on a certain type of meditation energy.</p>
<p>I created a membership site at <a href="http://www.meditationclassathome.com" target="_blank">http://www.MeditationClassAtHome.com</a> for the purpose of teaching self discovery.  Anyone can join, and I give away the first month for only $1.00, so that you can see for yourself if what I am teaching is right for you.  If not, that is O.K. but at lest you have the opportunity to explore.</p>
<p>I am sometimes asked by people who are inquiring about self-discovery, ‘Why do I need a special form of meditation energy to complete a journey of self-discovery?’  I answer this question much more in depth on my meditation membership site.  However, for the sake of this article, my answer is this.</p>
<p>If you wanted to become a great writer, you would probably be best advised to employ someone to teach you how to take your writing to the level you desire. If you employed a reporter from your local free newspaper, the chances are they would improve your writing, but they would not be able to take you to the level you desire. So, there are many so called experts in the field of <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation/" target="_blank">meditation</a>. Many of them will help you on your journey of <em>self discovery</em>, but there are very few who can help you finish the journey.</p>

<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wXdcwmyVXpM?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="480" height="360"></iframe></p>
<p>About 3 million people a month type the word Meditation into the Google. Fair enough. But did you know that only 2400 people a month, in the whole world, type in the words <strong>Meditation and Consciousness</strong> into the search engines? This is pretty surprising when you consider that meditation has a direct, proven and positive impact on your consciousness.</p>
<h1>So What Is Meditation And Consciousness</h1>
<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-300" title="Meditation and Consciousness" src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Fotolia_16400697_XS-150x150.jpg" alt="Meditation and Consciousness" width="150" height="150" /><br />
For the purpose of this article, we need to define just what is ‘meditation’ and what is ‘consciousness’.</p>
<p>Meditation is the practice of becoming physically, mentally and emotionally stiller. This increasing stillness has the effect on the meditator of them becoming more ‘aware’ or ‘conscious’ of themselves. This is also, usually accompanied by an increasing feeling of peace and tranquility.</p>
<p>Your ‘consciousness’, is literally all that you are aware of. So, through the practice of meditation, you can become increasingly aware of more and more of your ‘self’. The degree to how much more you become aware of depends on a few things.<br />
is the type of meditation technique you are using. For instance, most <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation-techniques/" target="_blank">meditation techniques</a> have a calming effect, but they will only expand your consciousness so far. They are incapable of expanding your consciousness beyond certain limits within creation. These limits are invariably found within the mind.</p>
<p>The mind is a reactive prison in which all human mental activity exists. The mind is in a constant state of reactive movement, though this movement can be ‘slowed down’ by practicing meditation. Because the mind is in a state of constant movement, often moving from one negative state to another, there can be no ultimate peace for the meditator who meditates within the mind.</p>
<p>I only know of one form of meditation that can take the meditator beyond the limits of the mind. This involves meditating on the inner light and sound that can be revealed to the consciousness of the meditator, by opening their third eye chakra. This process is sometimes called Initiation.</p>
<p>If you are serious about exploring meditation and consciousness, it is really important that you challenge your currently held beliefs on what is possible and what is not possible. To the vast majority of meditators, even those who have spent a lifetime practicing meditation, the very idea of existing outside of the normal consciousness of the mind may sound far-fetched.</p>
<p>Also, consider this. It is thoughts, and the spaces between thoughts, that give you the impression of a time continuum. To exist outside of the mind, in an uninterrupted state is possible. So is the idea of existing outside of the realms of time is something that cannot be experienced whilst still trapped in your mind. However, once you do exist outside of the consciousness of your mind, you realise for yourself the simplicity and beauty of this state.</p>
<p>So, the most important factor affecting meditation and consciousness is the form of meditation. The second most important factor in affecting meditation and consciousness is the expert guidance that is needed by the meditator. Just as you would not attempt to climb Mount Everest on your own, no matter how well equipped you were, to attempt to go beyond the mind without guidance, would be a futile exercise.  At least that is my experience.</p>
<p>There are many who teach meditation and hail the benefits of expanding your consciousness or awareness.  But consider this. The mind is a prison. It contains your consciousness.  You can use various <a href="http://meditationgold.com/category/meditation-techniques-2/transcendental-meditation/" target="_blank">meditation techniques</a> to induce a sense of peace and tranquility into your daily life, but you will still be trapped. I only know of one meditation technique that will expand your awareness beyond the limits of the mind.</p>

<p><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-259" title="spirituality for men " src="http://meditationgold.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Fotolia_16598627_XS-150x150.jpg" alt="spirituality for men" width="150" height="150" />There are a group of ‘special’ men,<br />
who for the last few thousand years, at least, have had direct knowledge of what God wants on this earth.</p>
<p>You must do exactly what these men want, or you will be punished in this life and in the next.<br />
Your children must also be trained  by these men to follow Gods rules, otherwise you will be deemed to have failed your children.</p>
<p>You will also be deemed to have failed by your fellow man.<br />
But most of all, you will be deemed to have failed by God.</p>
<p>You will recognize these men, by any one or more of the following attributes:</p>
<p>1) They will wear clothing or headgear indicating that they know something that you don’t.</p>
<p>2) They will manipulate you by offering you symbolism, tradition, hope and stories that do not make any sense at all.<br />
If you question their stories, they will tell you even more stories, with a slight inflection that maybe there is something wrong with you..?</p>
<p>3) If you continue to question these men, or simply ask for proof, then the ultimate weapon is brought out.</p>
<p>Your ‘faith’ is brought into question. After all, they have taught you that there is nothing worse than someone with no faith.</p>
<p>If you are a woman, do not despair, for you can be a servant of these men.<br />
You could do the jobs they do not want to do.<br />
Or you could even sign up to be a pretend man.</p>
<p>This means you dress like one of them, but everyone knows you have no power and are not really one of them. But at least you are not like the &#8216;normal&#8217; women.</p>
<p>And maybe then you will be a bit closer to God. (Even though it is impossible to be closer to something that is everywhere.)</p>
<p>4) These men are special, so many do not go to work. However, they do work one day a week, and would like to see you then, for them to share more stories with you. And you can share your money with them.</p>
<p>5) These men live in big houses and do not have mortgages. This is OK because they are doing God’s work.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The stunts that these men pull in the name of God, is breathtaking. You have to admire their sheer cheek. Least you would, were it not for the hundreds of millions of people who are kept in spiritual poverty, and often financial poverty, in the name of God.</p>
<p>Billions of people give their personal power and dignity away to these parasites.</p>
<p>You can believe these men if you wish, or you can find out the truth about yourself, within yourself, through being gentle, kind, loving, and accepting of yourself, through<a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation/" target="_blank"> meditation</a>.</p>
<p>Enjoy Your Meditation</p>
<p>In stillness, there are no men, no women. There is no left and no right, just an amazing beautiful truth.</p>

<p>You may have heard the term Transcendental Meditation before, but what does it actually mean? Well, depending on who you ask, depends on the answer you get. Plus, the answers you get are so vague, that you have to wonder if even the people who practice Transcendental Meditation know what it is.</p>
<p>But for the record, according to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendental_Meditation" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>, Transcendental Meditation is; <em>Transcendental Meditation (TM) refers to the Transcendental Meditation technique, a specific form of mantra meditation, and to the Transcendental Meditation movement, a spiritual movement. The TM technique and TM movement were introduced in India in the mid-1950s by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (1914–2008) and had reached global proportions by the 1960s.</em></p>
<p>Basically, some bloke called Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, did very well teaching this form of meditation to over six million people. Fair enough, but what is it? What is transcended? And possibly most important of all, is it of any use to you? To answer these questions, we need to use a bit of philosophy, but we can do it together.</p>
<p>I have a question for you, but first of all I would like you to sit still and breath meditate for a few minutes at your brow centre. Go on, close your eyes and do it now. Please do not read on. Then after a few minutes open your eyes, then read on…</p>
<p>Ok, now, being as still as you can, look at your hands, or your arms or legs or any part of your body. Now, do your arms have any knowledge of the ‘you’ that is looking at them? No, they do not.</p>
<p>Because your consciousness already transcends the physical plane. You are already a transcendental being. Also your emotions have no direct knowledge of your mind or body, and vice versa.</p>
<p>This is to say, that you are a collection of ‘centres’ that appear to be constantly moving, at varying speeds, across the physical, mental and emotional planes. Because you are in a state of continual movement, there is no peace. Because you cannot escape this continual movement, there is no freedom. And because you are using these centres as your very ‘identity’, you cannot know yourself, you cannot ‘find’ yourself, just as an eye cannot see itself.</p>
<p>This is not to say that Transcendental Meditation is no good. It has been proven to lower blood pressure, reduce stress, aid school children achieve excellent results and much more. Plus it was one of the first meditation techniques that I tried in the seventies.</p>
<p>I very quickly came to the end of my mantra. The TM organisation then offered me a siddhi program, which I didn’t bother with as I had already seen past their simple mantras, and seen through their very poor thinking and philosophy. And their willingness to be believe in any old stuff as long as it wasn’t Christian, Jewish or anything mainstream.</p>
<p>I wanted to discover who I was, what I was, where I was going to and basically, what’s the point of it all. They were unable to answer a single one of these questions. So I went to their UK headquarters, called The Age Of Enlightenment, based in Skelmersdale, UK, and asked to ,speak to somebody who was Enlightened, as I wanted to discover Enlightenment for myself. They said that there was nobody who was Enlightened there. That only the Guru was Enlightened and he lived in the States. I looked at this man’s blind acceptance of yet another man’s fairy story, I thanked him, and left.</p>
<p>You are already a transcendent being, but you are trapped in a physical, mental and emotional cage. Any thoughts of spirit, are just that, thoughts. They are not spirit. In the same way, you cannot think of money, then pay your rent with the money you just thought about, it just doesn’t work.</p>
<p>To discover spirit, you must discover spirit, through direct revelation at your brow centre. This is called Initiation. (Which I discovered, and is now available, if you are interested). There are several dimensions other than the gross physical, mental and emotional bodies. Experiences of these other dimensions are often called ‘spiritual’. It would be more accurate to call them astral or etheric experiences.</p>
<p>Spirit is infinite and has no edges. Because it has no edges you cannot feel it, experience it, or think about it. It is only possible to experience an edge.</p>
<p>If or when you get Initiated, your first ‘experience’ will be your current sense of self, seeing the inner light and hearing the inner sound of spirit.  In time, you will let go of the edges that define you, and you will dissolve into the one love that is everything.</p>
<p>Now, that sounds a bit more achievable, appealing and in fact, utterly glorious than transcendental meditation doesn’t it?</p>
<p>I have to thank Transcendental Meditation in a way.  It got me started on the road to meditation. It showed me the limits of certain meditation techniques, it showed me the sad desperation that people will cling to in order to make sense and give meaning to this life we have to live.</p>
<p>It also gave me a reflection, a mirror, an opportunity for me to step up and admit that I did not have the answers, that I may never find the answers, that I wasn’t going to accept someone else’s hopes and dreams as the benchmark for truth in my life. So I kept on looking.</p>
<p>I found a form of <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation-techniques/" target="_blank">meditation</a> that transcended the physical body, the emotional body, the mental body, the etheric body, the astral body, the atmic and the buddhic till I was final free – forever.  There are no more questions about the nature of myself, the nature of the universe or indeed, the nature of love.</p>
<p>Only one question remains, and that is to the nature of the ferryman, who took me from the confines of what I was, to the infinity that I now know I have always been.  My sincere love and gratitude goes out to the Spiritual Master which made this journey possible.</p>

<p>There is so much misunderstanding about kundalini and <a href="http://meditationgold.com/meditation-techniques/" target="_blank">kundalini meditation</a>.<br />
I read the following in Wikipedia:</p>
<p>Kundalini is described as a sleeping, dormant potential force in the human organism. It is one of the components of an esoteric description of the &#8216;subtle body&#8217;, which consists of nadis (energy channels), chakras (psychic centres), prana (subtle energy), and bindu (drops of essence). Kundalini is described as being coiled up at the base of the spine, usually within muladhara chakra. The image given is that of a serpent coiled three and a half times around a smokey grey lingam. Each coil is said to represent one of the three gunas, with the half coil signifying transcendence. Through kundalini meditation, and various esoteric practices, such as kundalini yoga, laya-yoga, and kriya yoga, the kundalini is awakened, and can rise up through the central nadi, called sushumna, that rises up inside or alongside the spine. The progress of kundalini through the different chakras leads to different levels of awakening and mystical experience, until the kundalini finally reaches the top of the head, <a href="http://meditationgold.com/crown-chakra-sadly-most-people-will-never-see-their-crown-chakra/" target="_blank">Sahasrara chakra</a>, producing an extremely profound mystical experience.</p>
<p>This is my personal view on <strong>kundalini meditation</strong>.</p>
<p>Kundalini  is the organising intelligence which allows you to physically live and breathe, and connects<br />
your body with your aura, for the whole of your life.</p>
<p>In India, Kundalini is generally what people seek, and it has a whole mythology and &#8220;ritualistic ignorance&#8221; accompanying it, and this can be seen in symbols and images, of snakes being worn on the body of Gods. There is a whole iconography of alchemy being displayed, all over the religious texts accompanying Kundalini meditation, and its journey from the base of the spine to the head.</p>
<p>When kundalini is raised, it can stimulate the pineal gland and the pituitary gland into activity, stimulating the intellectual process&#8217;s and psychic process&#8217;s in the individual if they are able to raise it.</p>
<p>Kundalini meditation is not , but it is a million miles more ‘spiritual’ than religions, so people all over the world crave access to Kundalini. Some institutes in California have been set up to try and find kundalini in the body,  as science now believes it is what organizes the entire body-mind relationship.</p>
<p>Kundalini meditation is a massive subject, and people can have access to an energy system which millions in the world want to have raised within them.  There are many books on kundalini which have been written by different spiritual teachers. Some of these show a profound understanding of the body mind relationship.</p>
<p>Some Kundalini meditation courses in India cost about ten thousand dollars, which last for<br />
several weeks.  But people do not get the actual energy raised at all, just breathing and dancing and chanting. Raising the kundalini through Kundalini meditation is very rare, that is why millions of Indians try for decades making sacrifices to raise this energy within them. Some, even starve themselves almost to death, hoping Lord Shiva will take pity on them and raise the energy, which from my perspective is sad, as there is a great deal of nonsense written about the energy by people who have never raised it.</p>
<p>There are a great many archetypes in the subconscious mind of the average person, which hold them back, and this creates low self-esteem, and Kundalini will help move this attitude away, so that is why raising the kundalini can help some people.</p>
<p>If you wish to attend a kundalini workshop, please get in touch with me.</p>
