Title: Pattie Boyd ; TM and meditation Post by: Jitendra Hydonus on Jul 16, 2023 06:43 pm Patty Boyd describes meditation in her book; Wonderful Tonight TM is an ancient Indian practice that was brought to the west in the 1950s by Maharishi Mahesh yogi as a means of ultimately achieving enlightenment. It is a simple technique. You are given a mantra, a single word, which you keep secret to say over and over again to yourself. The idea is that in repeating the mantra you clear your mind so you can give it and your body a brief rest from the stress of modern life. You sit with your eyes closed, completely relax for 20 minutes, repeating your mantra, to make yourself feel calmer, more creative, focused, and more successful. The benefits are cumulative day by day. Life is supposed to get better and better. I love meditating and I found the effects remarkable. I really did feel more alert and energetic. It did what it said on the bottle-It was life-changing I couldn’t wait to tell George. ~ Patty Boyd (chapter six ‘ A New Direction ‘) |
