How wonderful that you intuitively understood meditation and also taught your sons the art of doing nothing. Thanks for sharing your experience and taking the time to write.

HI !

I just find so intriguing, truly bizarre the fact that I have on my own, years ago, found out about the art of “doing nothing”…and even used to teach my sons the same… People might have thought something was wrong with me, but I did it so because both boys were great achievers at school…and I supervised them anyway (by the way, I was NOT too strict as a mother!)… They were great as students, did well in both music and sports…and so, I thought they should also be taught about doing… NOTHING !
And this is why when I found your article I just had to read it… and tell everyone I know about it !
I had no idea I was indeed on the right path…but it just felt great, it felt right to take that precious time out. I have since learnt TM, and continue to explore further into all to do within myself…Transcending in TM is something I cannot find words to describe…
So, thank you for sharing your knowledge…

Dear Dr. Luthar – Namaskar!

Your article on meditation was deeply satisfying. As a long-time meditator, I resonate with the idea that even highly-evolved and purified beings will suffer to a degree while here on this relative plane. Awareness enables us to suffer less, however.

My greatest peace comes from being. This being surfaces and spills over throughout my day and life. Less mind enables more being, it seems.

Thanks so much for your lovely blog and your contribution to humanity’s happiness and evolution. I look forward to reading more, and for perhaps more with respect to your ruminations on ‘what love is.’

Many Blessings – Ken LaDeroute

Dear Harsh,

I just discovered your blog and read your article about meditation – May many people read it who “force” themselves to meditate even when they don’t like to be still – or enjoy the states of not doing anything… thank you, I appreciate all your words

Greetings to you from Assisi
Ingrid

[...] Luthar.com says: Some people equate repeating a mantra with meditation. Others say that if you focus on the in-going and out-going breath, that is meditation. There are people who believe that you must be able to sit cross-legged in the lotus position with a straight spine in order to meditate effectively. [...]
