[...] March 14, 2011 · Filed under Meditation, Stress School gymnasiums can invoke a whole spectrum of emotions. But a new set seemed to emerge from the children at Freedom High School in Tampa, Florida as they sat down for a few minutes to meditate. After a few minutes of Sahaja Meditation instructions imparted by the program conductors, they began to calm down into a state of bliss and awareness. [...]

Mel,
Meditating on your own is a good thing anyway. BUt I wish you to be able to join a bigger company one day – the impact will be tremendous!

You are meditating with a collective via the online meditations, which is quite different from meditating on your own. I am also far away from a collective like you and rely on the online collective for, well, collectivity. When there are not others around to correct and guide and help you, I really think there’s an extra measure of grace that helps you get where you need to be. You are looked after, regardless of geographic location. Do not worry about where you are headed or how quickly if your attention is pure. Keep trekking. If you have the chance to meet with a (real live) collective, go for it if you can; I just did for the first time and it was wonderful. A long ways away but worth it. Now it’s back to online and on my own, but I am certain we are looked after as much as any yogi who lives in a city with a large collective.

Hi Mel,

I’m not in the same situation as you, as I live in a large city (Vancouver) and where I have been meditating at home and with others for a long time.

I am sure that you can definitely grow and enjoy deeper experiences, even being farther away.

The online meditations are an extremely viable way to benefit from group meditations, even if you are physically far apart. There is no doubt that meditating in small groups is indeed a strong experience and beneficial, although with that said, the journey of meditation is one that takes place inside you.

There are also regular events, meditation classes and sometimes seminars that take place all around the world. I hope you will get a chance to make it out to one one day.

Unfortunately I am not able to meditate collectively, as I live a fair distance away, from the nearest yogi’s. I meditate twice a day, also I do the online mon night and tue. Will I still be able to eventually get to wear we all want to be without the group work? Anyone out there in the same situation.
