"...there is a law of love in the universe, and...if you disobey it you'll suffer the consequences."

The ancient practice of meditation, proven to have remarkable physical and psychological benefits, is a recommended activity for those committed to the wholesale and unrelenting practice of Agape. Meditation counters stress, assists in centering, and can facilitate deep calm. Such equanimity is necessary not just for good general emotional and physical health, but for arriving at proper judgments regarding the handling of conflict. In Star Wars Episode V, Master Yoda instructs Luke Skywalker in the knowledge and insight regarding good and bad that can flow from a calm and relaxed state of mind: LUKE: ...Is the dark side stronger? YODA: No...no...no. Quicker, easier, more seductive. LUKE: But how am I to know the good side from the bad? YODA: You will know. When you are calm, at peace. Passive. In fact, the practice of meditation is presently under intensive and continuing study, and the procession of such enquiry steadily reveals one powerful and amazing characteristic after another. For example, according to Dr. Doris Taylor, meditation yields the largest increase in stem cell creation she's ever seen. Suggested Links |
