In Oshada's Words: Musings about all things spiritual
- Details
When we meditate we open the door to a sacred realm that lives within us. We consciously remove ourselves from the world of circumstances and expectations. For a few moments we leave behind the physical sphere that demands us to participate in making a living, to-do lists, caring for others, as well as anxiety and pain.
In meditation we enter into the timeless dimension of our spiritual essence. Here we can come to know ourselves in a deeper and profound way. From this vantage point we are able to rest our wearied hearts. We can release and transform our troubles. We are able to look at our lives from a different vantage point and receive the spiritual help that we need.

In my New Year’s Blog I wrote about reviewing the previous year, and being able to let go of the past so we can have a brand new start in 2016. I received many comments on that article ranging from: “Amen to that!” “Blessed be.” “Well said!” to “Really, how?” and “Whatever happens, happens.” Some people wanted to know if love was on their horizon, or if they should stick with a personal relationship that was unfulfilling.
Most of you agreed that reviewing the past, holding onto love, and embracing what works, is a good approach to life. The problem comes in with releasing and blessing that which no longer works. I understand that letting go is easier said than done. When I am faced with a situation, a behavior or an attitude that is no longer working for me, my first reaction is often fear.
