I have a question related to meditation. I am a firm meditator from the past 4 years and I enjoy doing that daily. My health has improved and I can work without any stress levels. I even feel bliss when I do meditation.
My question is that from the first day I started meditation, it seems most of the people I meet are also meditators.
This has happened with almost 10 people so far. Why do you think I am regularly meeting meditators?
Deepak's Response:
When you make contact with the universe and you want something how long does it take to get what you are asking for?
Deepak's Response:
I would like to know how do I keep my meditation going when I have a million things to do a day? I have had some trouble in the past with keeping up with my meditation, but I’m trying some new techniques. I would also like to know how do I keep my practice thriving even through the rough patches?
Deepak's Response:
How do we know what a good apple tastes like if we haven’t had a bad apple to compare it to. Do we need bad experiences to give birth to new desires? I recognize we are going back to our source but do we have to suffer to be reborn again? If we are constantly expanding consciousness do we ever contract? If we fulfill all our desires do we just want to suffer again. Seems pointless.
Deepak's Response:
Your meditation on realizing one’s deepest desires may lead to the recognition that one desires deeply and passionately things of the body. Intellectually one knows these are temporal desires and one ‘should’ desire and strive for God and God alone. But the truth remains, confusion results.
Deepak's Response:
I can’t control my desire to eat, I always prone to eat until my stomach hurts. I can’t stop indulging myself of tasting food and chewing, it seems like nothing will ever enough. What should I do?
Deepak's Response:
At times before I sleep or on waking up my mind seems to conjure up personifications of people. I can see every detail, color and characterization. I have at times tried to silently ask what is the purpose of their visit, but somehow I find it very difficult to keep focus to be able to get any results. How do I go about it?
Deepak's Response:
I am 24 years old. I'm engaged with a guy for the last 1 year and we are planning to get married. We are also physically engaged for a while. My parents are not very happy with this relation but they have accepted him for my sake. Now for the last month he has changed completely, it’s not he is calling off the marriage but he is treating me in a strange manner. Whenever I ask anything related to him and his work he gets irritated. Before this he was very loving and caring. My career is not yet settled. I am very upset with this. Shall I go further will this relation or not? I really love him and don’t want to lose him. Please guide.
