Does it matter where I sit for my heartfulness meditation practice?
As far as possible,
We keep a separate place reserved for each different type of work and activity whether at home or at work.
Hence it is natural that when we are in a particular place,
We start having thoughts related to the nature of that place.
Let us say we happen to walk into our study or sit down at our work desk.
What do we start thinking of?
Well,
Most probably about our work,
Study or things related to that.
Each specific place becomes associated with a certain activity in our minds and due to this association,
A specific environment is created in that place.
The power of thought is a very potent energy.
The Buddha is supposed to have once said,
With our thoughts,
We make the world.
When we resolve to do something,
The connecting link between that thought and what we want to do intensifies.
Depending on the intensity,
We are able to apply our will and focus on that intention.
So when we have a special place for our meditation practice,
We find that just being there,
Revives a meditative state in our heart.
We begin to feel motivated and supported by the atmosphere there.
And this makes it easier and faster to go into deep meditation.
Of course,
We may go ahead and sit wherever we want for meditation,
But it helps greatly if we sit at the same place at the same time in a steady posture day after day.
God Bless!
