There are 3 Golden Rules to follow in Meditation: achah, aprayatna, and akinchan: I want nothing, I do nothing, I am nothing.
~ Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji
A beautiful and profound guidance from Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji!
He shares three golden rules to deepen your meditation practice:
1. Achah (I want nothing): Let go of desires, expectations, and attachments. Come to meditation with an open and receptive mind, free from wants and demands.
2. Aprayatna (I do nothing): Don’t try to control or manipulate your mind or meditation. Simply observe your thoughts, emotions, and breath without interference or effort.
3. Akinchan (I am nothing): Surrender your ego, identity, and limitations. Embrace the present moment, and merge with the universal consciousness, becoming one with all existence.
By embracing these three golden rules, you can:
– Quiet the mind and dive deeper into meditation
– Experience inner peace, calmness, and clarity
– Connect with your true self and the universe
– Find freedom from attachments, desires, and limitations
May Gurudev’s wisdom guide you on your meditation journey, leading you to a deeper understanding of yourself and the world.
