Special Meditation Space for meditation
One of the important aid for meditation is to create a special meditation space in the house. Any area, room or corner of our house can act as an meditation space. Specially for beginners in meditation, it is important that they practice meditation in the same place and at the same time.
When we meditate regularly in the same place then that place gets charged with the meditative energy. Each time we sit for meditation in the same place, then the place gets more charged and tuned with out meditative energy. In long run the meditative energy of the place helps us in going deep in meditation. Every place has its own energy. e.g. In a temple the energy is more spiritual and conducive for spiritual practices.
It is best if we can use one room in our house only for meditation purpose. But if that is not possible then we can decide any area or corner of the room and should use them for meditation only. Once we decide any place for meditation purpose then ideally we should not use it for any other activity. Only in case of an emergency we should use meditation space for any other activity as it affects the quality of the energy.
As the time passes by, our meditation space gets more and more charged with meditative energy and each meditation session builds up more energy in the meditation room.
Energy in the meditation rooms has to be maintained with regular meditation. Some ways by which we can enhance the energy of meditation space or room are:
- Burning camphor and religious incense helps in maintaining the environment in the room sacred.
- We can place the statue of Buddha or a photograph of our spiritual guide in the meditation room.
- Using soft meditation music.
- Placing artificial waterfall in the room.
- Placing Crystals or using aura soma to enhance the energy of the meditation room.
- Keeping the room as much empty as possible, don't clutter it with unnecessary things.
- Have weekly or monthly gathering of friends for silent sitting or for group meditation.
- By planting trees near your house or keep potted plants in your house.
