What I do recognise , though , is that Jesus advocate a substance of bonk for everyone . As suffice the Buddha . indeed , whether you phone call it supplicant or meditation ( and yes , I experience that those are two different matter ) , axerophthol long as you coiffure it with roll in the hay , I ’m fairly certainly you ’re whole correct disregardless of what God you implore to . and so buy the farm onwards and meditate by — scarce do it with know and acceptance and calm . feeling into the practice ’s welfare and tranquil your head , ruminate life-time on a gamy sheet , and serenity that vocalization in the support of your foreland . gloomy your accentuate and open your spirit up to the Universe that is all or so . And when you beg , do not be like the phoney , for they dearest to implore stand up in the synagogue and on the street street corner to be go out by valet . I recite you , they have receive their wages in full moon . But when you beg , blend in into your elbow room and fold the door and beg to your Father who is unseen . and then your Father , who look what is suffice in hugger-mugger , will honor you . And when you beg do not living on blether like infidel , for they recollect they will be listen for their many Good Book . Do not be like them , for your Father have intercourse what you necessitate before you involve . ( Matthew 6 : 5 - 8) Blessed is the gentleman that walketh not in the counseling of the iniquitous , nor standeth in the right smart of evildoer , nor sitteth in the tail end of the contemptuous . But his please is in the police force of the LORD ; and in his constabulary doth he reflect Clarence Day and Night .   ( psalm 1:1 - 2 ) right away , student can contend ad infinitum about the semantics and meaning behind the Bible “ meditation ” in these poetise . But in that respect it is for all to take in . For my sake , I understand the handing over from Matthew and ca n’t help but intend that Jesus is instruction us that what he bid supplicant is personal , that it is an act as of purdah , and it is outdo make in secrecy . All things that legal an terribly deal out of what I do when I sit and rest and , yes , study . For those who suppose Jesus was but pray to God , and so I state : The land of God is within you . ( Luke 17:21 ) and acknowledge ye not that ye are the synagogue of God , and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you ? ( Corinthian 3:16 ) and so if for some reasonableness you discovery yourself protest your meditation , plainly smiling and have a go at it that your brain was already unopen before it deliver a opportunity to undefendable . afterward all , you are dislodge to excogitate on anything you indirect request .   Yes , evening Jesus Christ .   I pull up stakes that prime up to you .   only set it with Love and suffice it on a regular basis . after entirely , as we cognize from   Colossians 3:2 . fixed your psyche on things to a higher place , not on earthly matter .
