Meditation brought into corporate culture, on the surface, is a way to relax employees and get them to better focus on doing their job…and increase the bottom line of the organization. That’s the corporate intent. But the actual purpose of meditation is to connect one with Higher Consciousness. Whatever word we use for this. Source, […]
There is a Center-Point in all experiences. Through meditation, we tune our minds towards this Center-Point, allowing our apparent selves to be informed by the wisdom It expresses. Interestingly, the light that we need to illumine the Center-Point comes from the Center-Point itself, allowing transcendence to happen on its own, to the degree we’re clear […]
Whatever knots in your life… Whatever insults thrown your way… Whatever misunderstandings you shoulder… Whatever habits cast you away… Whenever world doesn’t see your value… Whenever sun doesn’t shine on your face… Whenever person doesn’t act with kindness… Whenever events compel you to chase… There is always solace, And that is… Student of MeditationRanjeeth Thunga
Certainly earlier in my journey I had an urge to teach people around me what wisdom and path they should take up. But as I mature, I’m less and less inclined to do so. As I more and more own the sheer amount of reactions, blindspots, questionable choices, fogs and limitations within my own life […]

Our breath is not just a way of calming the mind. It actually is a way of leading us through our lives. It shows us where to go, where to uncover, and where to let go. Breath can very well be equated with Higher Intelligence. When we realize that breath is more than just a […]
Many skills, on their own, seem to be temporary. They don’t last forever. They come and go as situations demand. They often get built, and get dropped. This applies to work skills we might have honed, knowledge we might have built, social graces we might have picked up, relationship skills we might have refined. I’ve […]
