"We are meant to be happy. That has always been something we strive for in this life. In fact, if we look at the motivations behind our thoughts and action conscious and unconscious they are all to get us closer to the feeling, or at least the idea, of happiness. Some of us have long asked why we cannot hold on to happiness. For all of the scholarship and human insights across the centuries, nobody has found a complete and enduring answer. Perhaps because it has been too close to see… The ans …

The form of meditation that I teach is based on Tibetan Buddhist meditation, using both mindfullness and single pointed meditation, along with breathing, chakra work, and movement.  Since I am fascinated with consciousness and the brain, I try to demystify some of how we operate mentally through what I have learned about neuroscience, I have been a meditation student for …

Evan Rock on Youtube Meditation is a journey into absolute aloneness, or all-oneness. There is no relationship with the external or internal world to define reality. When attachment to thoughts cease, one sees that inner silence is not scary and dark but rather tremendously peaceful. This is the meaning of the word nirvana. It is not utter happiness, but rather an utter cessation of our attachment to the imaginary; a blowing out of the flame. Out of this silence, joy may arise. Unlike happiness, …

On Wednesday evenings we meet for guided meditation as well as words of affirmation and truth. In the quiet atmosphere of our chapel we move into a place of quiet reflection while soft meditative music plays. We use meditation to relax and get centered, and then use guided imagery to “imagine.” Some meditations are structured for specific purposes, others allow for us to truly “let go” and move into whatever place we need to experience. Through meditation we can come to new understandings about …
