Sri Chinmoy’s Path of Meditation<\/h4>\n

Sri Chinmoy’s path of meditation shares many similarities with other types of meditation. In particular Sri Chinmoy teaches the benefit of meditating in the spiritual heart. Sri Chinmoy feels if people could leave the mind and enter into the heart, then it is much easier to quell the restless thoughts which usually disturb our mind.<\/p>\n

“You must<\/span> direct<\/span> your full, int<\/span>ense concent<\/span>rat<\/span>ion on t<\/span>he heart<\/span>. You must<\/span> feel t<\/span>hat<\/span> you are not<\/span> t<\/span>he mind. You have t<\/span>o feel t<\/span>hat<\/span> you are growing int<\/span>o t<\/span>he heart<\/span>. You are only t<\/span>he heart<\/span> and not<\/span>hing else.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
