I find that writing is one of the best ways for me to study what I'm interested in.
When I teach, I can often see when people have questions or don't follow what I"m saying. I ask for questions and then try to clear things up. However, it isn't possible for me to be there with readers, so I have to make sure that what I'm writing is really crystal clear. (less)

“One common analogy used for meditation is that when the water of a lake is agitated by waves, it is difficult to see what is really there. But when the water is still, you can see clearly. The same is true of your mind - when it is calm you can see and experience inner peace.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

“Chakra meditations are most helpful when you reinforce them with rgular asana practice, self analysis and positive activities throughout the day.”
Swami Saradananda, Essential Guide to Chakras

“Meditation is a state of mind in which you are fully focused on the experience of being in the eternal 'now'.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

“Regular meditation makes you more aware of the uniqueness of each moment, enabling you to live more fully in the presenting, without needless longing for the past or worrying about the future.”
Swami Saradananda

“Meditation is a state of mind in which you are fully focused on the experience of being in the eternal 'now'.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

“One common analogy used for meditation is that when the water of a lake is agitated by waves, it is difficult to see what is really there. But when the water is still, you can see clearly. The same is true of your mind - when it is calm you can see and experience inner peace.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

“Meditation is not contrary to prospering or to following your dreams. In fact, it can enable you to be more effective in obtaining more of what you want out of life/ Meditation empowers you to work from a place of inner peace, rather than from a state of restless anxiety. A useful analogy might be that stretched and relaxed tend to run better than ones knotted with stress.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

“If you build a good rhythm for your meditation, you will find that it soon becomes a deeply ingrained habit.”
Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation
