Why Meditate

Meditation, properly and regularly practiced, leads to flow. Flow is a different term for a state in which one finds joy, clarity and fulfillment. People can use the flow state in all life situations to achieve their goals easier and with less effort. In extended states of consciousness, which are often experienced and evoked in meditations, we are able to develop our entire potential and, at the same time, to overcome egoic, limited perspectives. If you start to look deeper into your own mind you will encounter your true freedom and highest potential. Once you discover your true self and get rooted in your essence you will find the best qualities that make us human beings: compassion, tolerance, calmness, serenity, creativity, connectedness, wisdom and a deep sense of humor. The most important thing is, you dont believe your believes anymore. You break free from any belief system and discover non-referential joy. Thats happiness for no apparent reason.

When the mind is simply left to itself, it tends to think about problems. It sooner or later becomes a restless chicken. Fears, worries and burdens fill a large part of our inner dialogue every day, so we often miss the depth of the moment, the magic of the now. A recent Harvard study, conducted by Matthew Killingsworth and Daniel Gilbert, clearly shows that our normal way of thinking, in which 40,000 to 60,000 thoughts pass through our consciousness, is the main reason for unhappiness.

Meditation allows us to not be identified anymore with our troubled and wandering minds and not being lost in fears, worries and endless expectations. Through daily meditation practice, new neuronal pathways are constructed in the brain, which allow us to enjoy life much more, to be present in the here and the now, and to increase the flow-state. If meditation works find you start to forget yourself and to encounter a state of oneness with everything.

Life is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Whatever we think has the tendency to come to realization. The more we think of something, the more probable the thought becomes reality, until it finally manifests. Meditation teaches us to use the power of inner peace, of positive thoughts and intentions, and thus to create a reality that draws from the depth of our being and from the deeper connectedness with all living beings.

Our approach to meditation is integral and intercultural, and is based on longterm experience, transpersonal psychology and scientific studies. We are not part of any religious community, cult or spiritual group, but we respect all spiritual traditions and their techniques.
We believe that personal experience is more important than any belief system. For this reason, the offer the best techniques of many traditions in SilenceFinder, so that people can use our meditations free from dogma or belief systems.

Almost everyone can learn to meditate, since it is something very natural. Herbert Benson, a US cardiologist, found out that we have a built-in mechanism in the brain, the relaxation response that allows us to relax at any time. Some of us have trouble sitting still – even if it’s only a few minutes – because they are moving types. If you are a moving type, jogging, cycling or rowing can mean meditation for you. Every kind of regular, repetitive movement can put you in the meditative state. We recommend moving types to meditate after their workout for about 10-20 minutes. Be aware that it may be difficult at first to simply sit still, because your system is programmed for thinking, moving or having fun. At the beginning of the meditation you can encounter resistance because: Maybe nothing interesting happens, so your mind is bored. The body is used to movement and sends you moving impulses. Your emotional center is looking for fun and meditation is not particularly satisfying at the beginning. If you use Silence Finder for at least three weeks, you will feel the positive effects. After three weeks your brain responds by forming new, neuronal connections, which will make your medication easier in the long run.
