the TRUE MEANING OF MEDITATION"When you pray to your Father,enter your secret chamber and pray in secret and your Father willsee you and reward you openly." So,how do we pray in secret when we all go to church and pray openly?So maybe it isn't the way. The Bible teaches us not to pray loudly,like the heathen or the hypocrites do. So the secret lies in thissecret chamber. That is why when we go to church, we pray a lot,out loud, and everyone hears it except God! So, most of the time,our wishes aren't fulfilled. It is because we do not follow whatthe Bible says. If we believe in it, then we should study it morecarefully.
Now it isn't that we must sit there and thinkabout God all the time. We just have to merge with God, and becomeone with God, and always be in His consciousness. That is whatis meant by the Kingdom of God. If you go to the church once ina while, on Sunday, it is also a way to seek the Kingdom of God,but probably not a very fruitful way. Because Jesus said to usthat the Kingdom of God comes not through observation, but itis within us. If it is so, what shall we do? Still, we must meditate,even though, it is said that the Kingdom of God doesn't come throughobservation, meaning not through meditation even. But it makesus more aware of it. The Kingdom of God isn't made by meditation,but by meditating we become aware of our Kingdom, which is alreadyexisting within ourselves.
..... Ourmeditation, we believe, is the original plan from God, that weshould get in touch with the God power and with the Word of God.In the Bible it is said,
In the beginning there was the Word,and the Word was God and the Word was with God. So we meditate on that Word, which is the vibrationwithin, the Word which indicates the frequency, the God Power.Because we are the temple of God, and God speaks to us in sucha way. He appears to us in the form of light and speaks to usin the form of sounds. Seeing the light, we see many other things.Hearing the Word we hear many other things. We hear the teachingsdirectly from God. So this is what we are meditating on. But whenwe have a powerful teacher, you may pray inside to Him or Her,if you have difficulty in meditation, or if you are too far fromGod, then you might need an intermediary. So you are still a littleweak like a baby that needs his parents to hold him, so he canwalk. But later you walk alone. You must know that your goal iswalking alone, and growing up, and not to rely on parents forever.
