On Meditation (From the writings of Eknath Aswaran)
When I talk about meditation, I mean only one thing: systematically training the mind to focus completely on a lofty ideal until that ideal absorbs our every faculty and passion.
The central principle of meditation is that we become what we meditate on. Over time, the transformation taking place in our character and consciousness is bound to show itself in our daily reflections. Part of this transformation is accomplished in meditation, but the rest is done during the day. Meditation generates power that needs to be put to constructive use, particularly in healing our relationships.
St Francis once said that we pray to partake of the peace of the Lord, but that the hours of the day are meant for spreading this peace in the places where people dwell.
When things go wrong at home, for instance, we need to try to remain patient and sympathetic. When someone at work is curt to us, we need to harness the strength found in meditation to move closer and show that person some special kindness.
Prayer for Protection
The light of God surrounds you,
The love of God enfolds you,
The power of God protects you,
And the presence of God watches over you.
Wherever you are, God is.
Amen.
Let There Be Peace On Earth
Let there be peace on Earth, and let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on Earth, the peace that was meant to be.
With God as Creator, united all are we.
Let us walk with each other in perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me—let this be the moment now.
With every breath I take, let this be my joyous vow:
To take each moment and live each moment in peace eternally.
Let there be peace on Earth and let it begin with me.
The Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love.
For it is in the giving that we receive;
It is in the pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in the dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
The light of God surrounds you,
The love of God enfolds you,
The power of God protects you,
And the presence of God watches over you.
Wherever you are, God is.
Amen.
