The 10 days retreat of Vipassana Meditation
It was 2014, and I found myself embarking on a journey of inner discovery through Vipassana meditation. The path ahead was a silent retreat, a place of stillness where words were hushed and distractions banished. Each day, I sat in meditation for 10 hours. It was on the fourth or fifth night, as I lay beneath the endless expanse of stars, that I felt a stirring in my soul. I gazed up at the celestial canopy above and, in a moment of pure clarity, I posed a question to the universe, "Oh enigma of the universe! How may your secrets be unraveled? Buddha himself could not comprehend thee, nor does the path of asceticism offer thee up. If austerity were the key, thy mysteries would be known by all, yet still, thy depths remain unfathomed. No matter the wisdom or knowledge of man, thou art not disclosed, for countless learned minds have tried in vain. And though many have sought thee through prolonged meditation, they too, have not unlocked thy secrets. So tell me, oh nature, how may thou finally be known?" And so, I gazed at the stars, lost in thought, seeking the answer that nature held within its vast embrace. But it was not words that came to me that night, as I lay beneath the open sky. Instead, a soft and mysterious voice whispered into my mind, offering to reveal the secret of the universe, but only if I swore never to share it with another soul. I considered the offer for a moment, then politely declined. I felt that the greatest reward in life was not to simply know the answer, but to embark on a journey of discovery, seeking it with all my heart and soul. For what would I do with a secret that I could never share? My purpose, I realized, was to uncover the truth, to unravel the mysteries of the world, and to share my findings with all who would listen. And so I set out on a journey, driven by a thirst for knowledge and the thrill of the unknown, determined to unlock the secrets of the universe, no matter where that journey may lead. I asked again, eager to uncover the truth, 'Can the enigmas of your being ever be deciphered, or are they destined to be forever concealed?' Nature simply grinned and drifted away, leaving the mystery unsolved.

Look within, for what's you're looking for is already within you. Take a moment, breathe, and listen to yourself. That’s where the real answers are .✨️

Meditation:The reality
Once we start meditating the first thing that we experience is the overflow of all the kinds of negative emotions. We only get to experience the true balance and blissfulness in our lives once all this negativity is erased by regular practice of meditation. When you are stepping on the path of... read more

Suzanne Giesemann suggests we ask spirit for a sign when engaging with higher consciousness. When I get them I still freak out in a good way. #psychic #spirituality #spirit #mediumship #tarot #meditation

A River is awake?
It would only occur to a river on a mountain that it would even want to flow down the bottom of a mountain. The clouds at the top of this mountain would never think this, they are too airy and high. The puddles in the valleys of a mountain would never think this they are too low and still. It... read more

Embody The Divine
All life on earth is a reflection of divinity. As humans, we have the opportunity to embody both the Divine Masculine and Feminine energies. When these two energies are balanced, magical things seem to happen in our lives. We can be strong, yet flexible. We can be soft, yet firm. We can grow,... read more

30 Seconds of Breathing
This breath helps line our spinal cords, and helps the energy in our body move and flow. Take two breaths in, one into the belly and then move it up into the heart. Then exhale with a smile, letting the breathe fall empty back to the belly. When you're ready, take a big breath in and hold. Relax... (edited) read more

Unpopular opinion: I don't care about meditation.
If you meditate or turn to spirituality to run away from reality, I don't find it useful. I believe in connecting with ourselves (and the universe) to meet reality where it is. If there's anything I learned this year, it's that the most beautiful souls I've met weren't the ones who were... read more
