A man walking in a thick fog, he can only see one meter ahead on all sides. His senses reflect impressions to his mind, his mind is aware of the landscape within a one-meter radius. He carries his sphere of knowledge and the horizon of knowledge with him wherever he goes.
Speaking from Stillness - Opening your Wisdom Channel through Meditation
These are once in a month meditation and dialogue sessions with Rina and Vijay Shyam.
Through the practice of meditation and self enquiry you will be guided to reflect upon the nature of the mind, and observe the changing nature of thoughts, emotions, perception, and imagination.
Transcend the field of the human struggle and release your inborn peace and joy. With peace, you give yourself a chance to connect to a deeper wisdom and clarity that is your very own.
Stepping beyond the conditioned world view you hold, self enquiry guides you to unfold your truth by listening to your eternal wisdom voice.
Each session will have a guided meditation, spiritual reading and discussion.

What do I mean by Opening the Wisdom Channel and Speaking from Stillness?
Watching, speaking and acting from the place of wisdom will transform every situation you encounter.
Modern man has forgotten that we come into this world with an inborn wisdom channel. This channel is different from the busy mental channel only meant for learning the name and attributes of things, people and places.
Wisdom is beyond thought and language, judgment and opinion, beyond like and dislike, attachment and aversion. The Wisdom Channel we are connecting to, is not an external voice but something natural that already exists within us, which is not attained through outside influences.
We will examine how intellect is an individual tool for factual learning. By considering our personal patterns, we can learn to listen to the stillness beyond the individual mind-chatter. In that free space of awareness, we can discover the source of wisdom
When we come to grasp that eternal awareness is a universal power for accessing pure knowing, we will dare speak about that which we truly know with ease and confidence.
We will get to know with what wisdom we came into this world.

SoulStillness is a space for investigative stillness and open dialogue.
To observe the mind without engaging in its movements allows you to realize that you are infinitely vaster than your perceptions, experiences and history.
The stillness found in meditation is not the goal; it is the starting point of a deeper observation of the nature of existence and consciousness.
By using the powerful tool of observation, we approach the limits of mind, to understand the infinity of our nature.
