How Meditation Changed My Life: Eclipsing Innocence

How Meditation Changed My Life: Eclipsing Innocence

by Pepper Bobadilla, Phillipines

I heard about meditation for the first time from my aunt. She might have suggested it because it seemed necessary. During those times, I certainly needed guidance but at the same time, I didn’t know I needed it.

Meditation: Chore or Privilege?

by Kalidas Hansen, Ananda Village

So many things call for my attention, including daily priorities of family life, longer-term goals, creative projects, and of course, spontaneous desires. It has been almost impossible to keep still long enough to go deeper in meditation.

Keep Calling Him

Ananda Music

"Remain persistent, undepressed,
Through dark and seeming silence.
If in the midst of life, disease and death
You play the dancer,
Yet keep calling Him,
You will receive His answer!"
