Confuring and Reconfiguring my Life The Power of Meditation (Part 2)
As seen in the part one of this article, men are wired up by the creator with the ability to reason and think through the issues of life. We saw that meditation means pondering on what a man has seen, read, or heard and thinking through them all for results. We also discussed the types of meditation and why meditation is necessary. Without meditation, a man may become a prey on this life journey and also the future belongs to those who can think deeply and fetch out results.
The Power of meditation
Significance has been given to the act of meditation across all spheres of life like the spiritual, science, legal, philosophy etc. Even science has proven that meditation has its own effect on the proper functioning of the brain. But today we will be discussing the power of meditation on your own personality (your entire being and your living in this life).
As seen in the Holy book Psalms 119: 97-99, meditation gives cause for the fulfilment of an existence and living within the centrality of God's will for men, so therefore the two major expositions of the power of meditation that have significant effect on men are:
Awareness and Harnessing
Awareness means being conscious, and it also means having knowledge of something. Meditation gives awareness/knowledge about:
*Self
Discovery of oneself lies in meditation. Meditation causes self awareness. Men who sit to reason have the greatest search light to fetch out that which is hidden in their being. Men have depth of treasures locked inside of them, but only meditation have the power to grant insight to your true state.
No matter the definition of yourself that men paint for you, they are not authentic as the one gotten through the act of meditation. Meditation helps you identify your true personality. You can't fetch out the real you in the midst of the noises of life but meditation does that for you. The best definition of yourself you get is not the definition within the crowd, but that of the secret place ( meditation), because your activities ( whether productive or not) will colourfully paint your personality as though you are doing well, but in the real sense you may not be doing well. Meditation fetches you self awareness.
*Men and their worth
Meditation is an opener for you to see that men are beyond what you see with your common eyes or sense. What is it about men?. Everyday men interact with one another, but it is as if some are leveraging on others to attain heights. Yes, life has leveraging factor, because your resources alone can't take you to where you belong or desire. Men are ladders by which you climb to attain heights. He who through meditation can discern the worth of men and how best to engage them is unstoppable. Men of old understood this because they engaged men in all they did no matter how little.
Note, meditating on a particular personality's worth and what he can offer you helps you fetch out the best in him.
*Resources
By default the creator have made everything around humans to be worthwhile ( potentials lies inside every of God's creatures). We see, touch, talk about, read, use different things daily, but how many times have you considered those things to be useful beyond the normal realm you know them to be?
Yes, people can be blessed with resources of all sorts, but I tell you that without the act of meditation, you can underutilize those resources. Awareness is good, but don't stop there, go further by harnessing them. There is more to everything you see and use daily, go for the more therein!!!.
*Future
He who is not aware of the future have no part to play not to talk of harnessing the true honey of it. As said earlier in part one of this article, he who can't think have no future!!!. The future belongs to those who are aware of it and can think through.
Meditation gives awareness that your personality and the resources you have is beyond the present. Meditation prepares you for featuring in the future, because on the altar of meditation you have been able to navigate through, devising and engaging the necessaries that will give you desired future.
Power/Boost/Strength
Talks don't give strength but drains;
Activities don't energize but sap;
Worries don't solve but add more;
Power is generated from secret.
You can't fully comprehend what meditation would do to you if you don't engage in it. Meditation gives power/strength beyond what you can imagine. Imagine that you are facing a particular problem and you need desperate solution because you have tried severally to profer solution but not yielding positive result. By the time you take your time to sit and think through about what exactly is the problem, the origin, tactics that you have employed but failed, things you failed to consider, etc, you will discover that in no time there will be a kind of strength that springs up from within telling you that you have the power to solve the problem and that you have all it takes.
Men who through their activities subdued territories and have their footprints on the sand of earth are men that sat and got their strategies for changing the world on the altar of powerful meditation.
The altar or let me say the act of meditation is a platform for drawing strength and boost for men who are passionate about harnessing and fulfilment their true personality.Even when it seems like all is crumbing, men of meditation know how to navigate their way out of the messes of life and come out victorious.
