How to meditate on a bench

http://www.joyiswithinyou.com/ Meditate in Comfort! Deep meditation requires a comfortable and relaxed body. Joy is your true nature! Seek it in the silence within.

"The highest perceptions are possible only when the functions of the mind have been stilled, and the heart is free and purified of desires."
(Paramhansa Yogananda)


Try to enter your mediation free of all desires except to know God or your own higher self. It's necessary to cast away all of your desires and worries even if it's only for your meditation time. Don't worry about them because they will be there for you when you return! Chanting or some other activity can help you forget about these things before your practice. Experiment and practice with Joy!

As you learn to live more in calmness, and make good use of little opportunities for stillness you, will find more Joy in life.

I LOVE MY BENCH. I am not exaggerating. Not only is the functionality of the bench absolutely perfect,the energy that it holds, compels one to meditate. I can go deeper and have much sweeter meditation with my "three hour meditation bench." Being Blessed to know Turiya I am aware of how much care he puts into the inspirations and method of making the benchs, from purchasing the materials, to chanting mantras while putting the benches together. These benches are amazing, you have to try it!

I must say, that it is very inspiring to see not only the clear instruction but the fact that you are happy and Blissful. This is what I aspire to have in my life.

I have one of these benches made by Turiya. Everything said in the video is true, I love my bench. If you meditate, I highly recommend trying this bench. I would be surprised if you did not enjoy it.
