The perfect combination - peaceful lake at sunset - cannot help but inspire a meditative stillness

Nature has inspired some of our great Seer Poets, artists and musicians. To be in touch with nature helps us be aware of the beauty, vastness and expanse of Mother Earth.

I WANDERED lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

- William Wordsworth ( I wandered lonely as a cloud)

Meditation is an inner process, but, if we can gain inspiration from our surroundings then it will be easier to dive deep within.

Secrets of Meditating in Nature.

• Find a place where you do not get disturbed by people, flies or extremes of temperature.
• Wear appropriate clothes to avoid
• Carry a lightweight seat or cushion to make it comfortable to meditate
• Early in the morning or around dusk make ideal times
• One can retreat to the most beautiful Himalayan peak, but, at the end of the day, it is the silence of the mind which will give us the meditation experience.
