Meditation is like a love affair with your innermost self. At
times it can be ecstatic and entrancing, other times simple and
still and sometimes you might not even feel its profound effects
until later.
Now with "Meditation for the Love of It, " Sally Kempton shares
practical secrets to help us turn meditation into an unconditional
embrace of the fullness of our experience on and off the meditation
cushion. With the gentle wisdom and compassion of one who
understands the nuances of practice, she opens us to the joy of
exploring the deep and mysterious inner landscape of the heart,
mind, and body.
Drawing on her 40 years as a teacher and a fellow meditator,
Sally teaches us how we can connect to our inner longings and
creative shakti energy to allow the transformative gifts and
blessings of meditation to unfold. With playfulness and devotion
two key attitudes in sustaining a daily practice she shares
indispensable guidance for this voyage of self-discovery,
including:
How to tune in to your own meditation channel, a bandwidth of
tranquillity, energy, and joy
Why you don t need a quiet mind to meditate
How the force known as Kundalini can fuel your practice
Connecting to your ever-present Inner Beloved to let go of
conditioned ideas about yourself and make space for the True Self
to come forth
Ripening your practice beyond technique into the sweet
mysterious expanse of spontaneous meditation
More than 20 practices for bringing the peace and insight of
meditation into your daily life
Remember: what you seek in meditation is your own Beloved, your
own inner intelligence, your own Awareness, and your own Truth,
teaches Sally. "Meditation for the Love of It" points us back to
our own intimate heart of hearts, our own deepest experience, and
the bliss of existence itself.
