Native American spiritual Quote

I stumbled across this today and want to share it:

The first peace, which is most important, is that which comes within the souls of men when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its Powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wakan-Tanka, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us. This is the real Peace, and the others are but reflections of this. The second peace is that which is made between two individuals, and the third is that which is made between two nations. But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace which, as I have often said, is within the souls of men.

My husband is Native American, thus the deep interest in spiritual quotes from them.

Meditation

Meditation brings your mind into the alpha state. Thus you can concentrate on the subject without interruptions from other influences. The first few attempts to completely relax might not bring immediate results, but you will feel refreshed and better than before. Give yourself 10 to 20 minutes. Best not to lay down, but to sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes and imagine to be in your special, peaceful place. As you are imagining that place, wonder around in it and enjoy the scenery. Relax your head, body, shoulders, arms and legs and feel yourself going into a deep relaxed state of mind. Once you feel relaxed, concentrate on whatever it is you want to change or accomplish and visualize the change as it already being in effect.

Meditate daily, it will help you to reach a goal or show you the path to take to a blissful happy being.

Namaste.
