I have realised recently through personal practise that why most of us are not able to sit in meditation. Many people run away when they hear the word meditation.
The main reason for such a reaction is 'fear'. I have recently left a good paying job and have started training myself as a trainer. The main objective to leave the job was to 'connect with myself' again. But i observe daily that i am so afraid of the 'future' events that I lose my connect over the present. I always remain in perpetual anxiety of "What will happen?"
It is good that because of practise of being present in 'moment' I am able to 'see' this OR be aware of this. The main reason of this is our upbringing where all fears are installed in us.
....If you do not study, there will be no job
....If you do not behave, we will not love you
....If you err, you are alone to solve the problem. We will not be with you
...IF you do not have a child after 2 years of marraige, we will not be with you.
And all the other things. IF we raise our children without fear, without conditions attached, they will be very good individuals and better citizens.
I am indebted for life to Charityfocus, Innernet and ijourney for my progression in spiritual area.
