I have the impression sometimes a little enjoyable invitation, an opening door, an initial point could be helpful for others to give meditation a try.
Meditation in general is mostly missinterpreted as an act of concentration or commonly pictured as to sit naked in a cave with flies around the head. And an intelligent reply understandably is: No thanks, nothing for me.
I also came across many many people talking all kind of nonsense when it comes to meditation.
The biggest portion goes to that cosmic mumbo jumbo, home-brewed romantic nirvana light show, self-knitted supernatural transcendental wish-wash picked up by some books, tv shows, so called teachers and other resources. And an intelligent reply again understandably is: No thanks, nothing for me.
Now, thus simply reflects obstacles and reasons, amongst others, why we don`t have a practical, direct access to meditation and is filled with buckets full of clichès, stereotypes amd missleadings.
So to open you a simple and doable entry into meditation with an enjoyable addition of music,
I created
Music for Vipassana Meditation
including a complemental manual in html format, with all details needed to start and give it a go right from the scratch.
The manual also suggests variations of sitting and dealing with the meditation and suggests to give it a try for at least 21 days.
`Music for Vipassana Meditation` sounds a bit paradox because Vipassana, once brought to us by Buddha, is a silent meditation, sitting and watching the breath ...
What I have created is a supporting frame to practice Vipassana either alone or in a group.
It can be done anywhere,anytime ... indoor,outdoor,at home,while traveling and so on.
`Music for Vipassana Meditation` provides you an enjoyable session start with music of Omkar to help you to slowly calm down and to become at ease with the silent sitting, followed by silence and a signal of a gong sound to mark the end.
Supported and time managed is a Vipassana session of 40 minutes in total which is known as to be most convenient sitting time both for beginners and advanced.
So aside the music helping to dive into silence in a comfortable way it is a time management as well for the complete session without the daily need of thinking about having prepaired something like a clock radio to end a session.
The digital age today with formats like MP3 and MP3 players even allows you to practice in public, like when traveling via train, airplane etc.
Summarized, `Music for Vipassana Meditation` gives you the frame to practice alone, in a group, at home, in public, when traveling and in any situations allowing a 40 minutes run.
Further informations and internet links refering to Vipassana to be found on the manual.
To keep the costs at a reasonable price, the `Music for Vipassana Meditation` can be downloaded exclusively at the new paypal shop corner of omkarmusic.com with the intention to save shipping costs and intermediary trade.
Please understand it as an invitation to make your own experience and don`t consider it a teaching.
I am not a follower of Buddhism, Neo-Buddhism or similar. I simply offer you a frame for a jewel of a meditation technique Buddha once has given us with my digital addition not invented yet when Buddha was alive.
