Meditate During Tough Times

by Michael Borokhovsky

Meditation is a practice of awareness or concentration on a specific object to achieve stillness of the mind. Stillness is not an end goal. Just as a calm lake allows us to see its bottom, a still mind enables us to register activities within our inner world and hear our Higher Self’s whisper.

In the Meditation on Twin Hearts, the objects of focus are our Heart and Crown, the energy centers for human and divine love. This meditation is easy to use.

The first part of the meditation is the prayer of St. Francis of Assisi. We pray for and bless the world with peace, joy, forgiveness, hope and healing. As we serve as a channel for blessings to Mother Earth, it allows practitioners to quickly “flush” their negative thoughts and pent-up stress, calming the mind.

One doesn’t have to be a religious person to pray. For all of us, there are moments when we project our thoughts into the Universe and ask for help and guidance. We reach out to the forces beyond our comprehension, hoping they are listening and willing to give us strength and wisdom. Even in moments of disbelief and frustration, deep down, we know that there is a better life, a higher form of existence, an abundant source of Light and Inspiration. We seek Higher Beings and great teachers; we seek God. They may need us, too, to rely on someone down there that will carry the work of the Great Ones on the physical plane, willing to serve as a channel of light.

In the second part of the meditation, one chants the mantra “OM”, then pause to do nothing and be aware. It is in that pause that the blessings come down.

This meditation is essential to Pranic Healing, offering significant benefits, especially during tough times. Years ago, I led this meditation at a homeless shelter in Philadelphia. After eight sessions, participants experienced dramatic improvements in their lives, with new opportunities opening up. Within a year, all practitioners left the shelter, some enrolling in training programs, others finding jobs and a few receiving support from family and friends to escape poverty.

That’s what the Meditation on Twin Hearts is. It heals the individual practitioner and improves the world around us. For those that like to pray, it’s a powerful healing prayer. For those that want to meditate, it’s an enlightening meditation. For those born to serve, it’s a channel of service. For those going through hardships, it’s a path out of trouble.

In gratitude to my spiritual teacher, Master Choa Kok Sui.

Anyone can say or write anything. I suggest looking for Meditation on Twin Hearts, also known as Planetary Meditation for Peace, on Amazon and put it to the test. Experiment and make one’s own conclusions.
