What is Meditation?Written by Robert Elias Najemy
Continued from page 1
Now object of your consciousness is what you are reading. And in-between lines it moves to life experiences, which are stimulated by associations brought forth by these words. Then past memories become your object of consciousness. Meditation is a process in which we let go of these disturbances and allow ourselves to sink into ourselves and experience center of our being, where there is a constant sense of peace and feelings of security and love for ourselves and all others. This becomes a source of energy, security, self-worth, freedom, strength and peace with which we can deal with our daily lives. We have so much to gain by dedicating 20 minutes at least once but better twice daily for this contact. We will obtain greater clarity, health, harmony, happiness, intuition, understanding, creativity and problem solving ability. The meditative process climaxes in transcendence of ego and mind itself, ending in a state of contact with higher levels of awareness or, eventually, pure consciousness without an object of perception. If we care for our bodies and minds and they will care for us.

Three different kinds of foods affect you differently. Stimulants (meats & spices) are addictive and can make you nervous, high strung, and hyper.
