Living

Your Meditation

There are infinite paths to meditation. Each of these paths, when

successful, brings us into a sense of inner peace, an awareness of our

oneness with all other beings, and a feeling of immense, unconditional

love.

But how often, as we head out into life after such blissful

meditation, do we find our peace, oneness, and love either slipping

away or instantly vanishing? Unfortunately, this is probably the norm

for most of us.

So how can we stay in our meditation as our lives unfold throughout

the day and evening?

Perhaps the biggest way is to make a radical inner decision that our

top priority today is to live our meditation as we go about our tasks

and encounter whatever situations or people arise in our path.

Notice how different this intention is versus diving into our daily

tasks and situations and hoping that we don't lose our meditative

peace. One approach puts meditation first. The other puts meditation last.

For example, here we go out into life after a wonderful morning

meditation. We completed our meditation with the intention to stay in

peace, oneness, and love during the day. Then we raise our intention

even higher. We decide to actively bring peace, oneness, and love into

whatever situation arises. This, in effect, is a decision not to end

the meditation but to extend it into our day and share it with others.

So then you look at your to-do list and a big one jumps out at you,

like meeting an important client that day. Does your meditation

dissolve? No, because you don't have to choose between the task and

the meditation. You can envelop the task or client in your meditation.

It's not about trying to convert anybody. It's about living at your

highest place of possibility – which is why we meditate to begin with.

And what client doesn't need to feel more peace, oneness, and love?

Living our meditation not only keeps us in peace, oneness, and love,

but invites others into this space. In fact, it's like creating a love

bubble which envelops anyone or any situation that comes your way.

For example, at lunch the other day, we asked our waitress her name,

as she was taking our order. And then we asked, directly from our

hearts, " What's the most significant thing going on in your life? " She

was a bit stunned, but felt the enormous strength of our love bubble

and she began sharing like a river that had just been undamed. She

said she had lost 117 pounds in the last year and had just returned

from meeting her birth father who she had never known for 39 years –

and he embraced her completely. There was so much excitement in her

soul. She told us that in all her years of being a waitress, no one

had ever asked her such a caring question.

This is an example of living our meditation. Yes, the two of us had

many things to discuss at lunch, but the oneness and love from our

meditation would not allow us to exclude the waitress from our peace.

So, you might accurately say, we had lunch with a new friend (our

waitress) in the middle of our meditation. This is a simple, small

example of living a meditation.

One of the top things that can ruin living your meditation is conflict

between yourself and others. When you see conflict coming – and often

you will see it not in the far off distance, but gaining speed within

your own thinking – you can make the decision to immediately envelop

this conflict with your meditation. It's really a life choice.

Conflict or peace? Separation or Oneness? Anger or love? Choosing

conflict, separation, and anger closes the path for unity and

happiness. Choosing peace, oneness, and love opens the path for unity

and happiness.

Is this easy? Well, no and yes.

No, it's not easy if you are accustomed to meditating and then leaving

your meditation to live life. That lets life catch us off guard.

And yes, it is much easier if you practice living your meditation

because then this becomes a habit. Rather than having the habit of

catching yourself after anger and recovering and then returning to

meditation, you develop the habit of actively enveloping every new

person and situation in your meditation and this develops the habit of

living in peace, oneness, and love. We're all somewhere on this path.

And who is the biggest winner from developing this life habit?

Everyone! We hope you feel enveloped in our meditation right now. And

we thank you for actively including us, and every person around you,

as you live your highest meditation today. Welcome to the heart of love!
