San Jose Meditation – I Finally Found God and Heaven Within Me
Adam Hunter / Computer Programmer / Mountain View, California
I have been attending church my whole life. My family is very religious and I started to go to church when I was 6 years old.
After graduating from college, I started feeling pain in my chest all the time. I worried about what was going on with my body and went to see the doctor. They checked my body with x-rays and MRIs but said that there was nothing wrong. At that time, I realized that I needed to do something for my mind. But, honestly as a Christian, I didn’t want to believe in meditation. I thought that only going to church would help me go through my issues in my life. Yet, many nights, I couldn’t sleep because of my chest pains. I knew it was all from stress and just tried to endure it.
Then one day, I went to a restaurant for lunch and found a flier for this meditation. And at that time, I took it as a sign from God, and I decided to try it out for at least 1 month. When I started to attend the meditation sessions, I really liked it because it doesn’t belong to any religion, and anyone, whether religious or not can enjoy the meditation program. While practicing this meditation, I realized one huge thing that I had missed throughout my entire life. I had insisted that I was such a faithful person, but I didn’t pay much attention to what had been going on inside my mind. I didn’t even know how to take care of it and nobody had taught me how.
Just as I clean my room, this meditation enabled me to cleanse all of the stress and anxieties within me. The method is very simple and easy so that anyone can follow and I didn’t have to feel any conflict about my religious background. As I passed more levels of this meditation, my conviction of God became clearer and deeper and my chest pains had completely disappeared.
Before, whenever I read the Bible, I could see this phrase so many times, “God is in me” or “The Kingdom of Heaven is within me,” but it was hard for me to say that those phrases applied to me, and I continued to have agonies and stress in my mind. However, since clearing out all the false mind through this meditation practice, I am now able to feel God within me, and I feel nothing but peace and joy. I finally found God and Heaven within me. And this feeling did not last only for a moment. It is everlasting since getting rid of my false minds. I really do want to recommend this meditation to every Christian and anyone else who wants to have a closer relationship with God and be able to understand the Bible so much better.
We have to understand the fact that in order to have strong faith in Him, we must look within ourselves and learn how to clear our ego and attachments. This meditation is perfect for that. I am so grateful to this meditation and those who founded it. Thank you so much and hope you can try this meditation, too.
