Let’s Explore the Heartfulness Way - Mode of Meditation
When was the last time you listened to your heart? Heartfulness
Way is all about listening to your heart in a meditative way. It is a simple
yet expressible practice, where your heart is the center of focus. And things
seem so much easier when it is done from your heart.
As we maneuver the many demands of relationships, career,
property and health, we often sense a void, a feeling of alienation from our
true selves. Is it possible for one planet to orbit so many suns? We have many
centres in our lives, yet where is the true centre, the deepest centre that
lies at the core of every heart?
Ensconced in India’s ageless oral tradition, Kamlesh D. Patel
- widely known as Daaji, the fourth guru in the Heartfulness lineage - traces a
seeker’s journey as he examines the nature of spiritual search. Through a
series of illuminating conversations between a teacher and a student, Daaji
reveals the core principles of the Heartfulness practice and philosophy to
Joshua Pollock, a Heartfulness practitioner and trainer.
Kamlesh D.
Patel as known as Daaji wrote two books on Heartfulness meditation. First is “The Heartfulness Way” & second is “Designing Destiny” both the books are co-authored by Joshua Pollock who has been practicing Heartfulness
meditation from last 18 years. Designing Destiny recently launched in Mumbai.
From reflecting on the essence of prayer and yogic
transmission to demystifying the act of meditation through practical tips, this
book will enable us to live beyond the filters of our sensory limitations and
discover unity within ourselves. To practise Heartfulness is to seek the
essence beyond the form, the reality behind the ritual. It is to centre oneself
at the core of one’s heart and find true meaning and contentment there.
What is Heartfulness Meditation?
Heartfulness is a Raja Yoga system of meditation, which
is also known as ‘Sahaj Marg’, or the ‘Natural Path’. It originated at the turn
of the twentieth century and was formalized with the founding of the Shri Ram
Chandra Mission in 1945 in India. With over a million practitioners worldwide,
Heartfulness meditation (www.heartfulness.org) is a set of practices for self-development that help us
find inner calm and stillness in our fast-paced world. The easily adopted practices
are appropriate for people from all walks of life, cultures, religious beliefs
and economic status, over the age of fifteen. Ongoing Heartfulness meditation
training can be found at thousands of schools and colleges, and over 100,000
professionals are meditating in corporations, non-governmental and government
bodies worldwide. More than 5000 Heartfulness Centres, known as HeartSpots, are
supported by many thousands of certified volunteer trainers in 130 countries.
