[Jitendra Hydonus]

i live in a rather remote area of Michigan at this time so we do not have meditation groups here. Although i am considering starting one. Over the years i have found that meditation in nature works best for me. When i am with other friends in nature it is even better. i remember their being group meditations at other sites. However i never participated... i meditate rather erratically at different times of day and nite. Depending on the weather and whether the mosquitoes and gnats are out. So since i am quite often, if not most often, outside during meditation i am not near the internet. The internet works poorly outdoors where i live and i do not carry a phone everywhere i go in nature.

i bring friends into my meditations already. Both u (Brock) and mccoy have often been in my prayers after meditation. At this time in my life i leave myself open to many ideas and people. If something seems to work for myself and others i will try it. However since my friends r already in my meditations i am not sure about the added possibility of virtual group meditation at such distances. There r vibrations that occur in a room between people and when we raise our consciousness in a room or in a place outdoors those vibrations affect those around us. Parmahansa Yogananda even talked about people sleeping during meditation and how those sleep vibrations bring down the vibrations of all those present; so it is best to tap someone if they fall asleep. However i have also heard of a Master talking about the vibrations of meditating at a distance when it comes to bringing the help of high souls into our meditation. Yogananda also talked of connecting with other souls at a telepathic level.
