Yoga Meditation Offers the Spiritual Food We All Need

Most of us have experienced feeling deep inside that something is missing in our life. We may try to fill up our emptiness in various ways—travelling, shopping, eating, keeping busy, etc. But no matter what we do in life, without spiritual food/sustenance, we will remain empty inside, looking for something more.

But what is that spiritual food? What is it that can actually give you the spiritual peace and happiness that you need? The conclusion of yoga scriptures and bonafide spiritual masters is that we can experience inner peace, freedom from fear and anxiety, and deep happiness through the practice of yoga meditation.

Experience Deep Happiness from Yoga Meditation

When we speak of the happiness derived from yoga meditation, we are not referring to the opposite of sadness. Rather, we are speaking about a happiness which is so deep and constant that it is present regardless of whether you are in a condition of “unhappiness/distress” or “happiness.”

Everyone experiences both the sadness and happiness which results from ever-changing circumstances in life. There is fortune, there is misfortune. There is wealth; there is poverty. There is beauty; there is ugliness. There is good health; there is sickness and so on. However, whether we are experiencing temporary happiness or sadness, we can possess a deeper happiness and well-being which has no opposite. This is why such happiness is called transcendental happiness—it transcends the constant changes of material life.

Meditation is for Everyone

No matter what your age, occupation or status in life is, whether you’re a student, parent, business person or retired, everyone needs a sanctuary from the demands of modern living, stress, anxieties, loneliness, emptiness, and personal problems.

In the same way that we can all enjoy a beautiful sunset, regardless of our age, income, profession, or anything else, similarly, we can all practice and reap the fruits of yoga meditation.

By adding yoga meditation to your life, you can experience ever-deepening inner peace and happiness, ever-increasing insights, realization of your real self-worth, and come to appreciate the deep and valuable purpose of your existence.

Learn meditation from Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda, a self realized yoga master and find that place of sanctuary for yourself.
