17 - Recapping thus far and pulling it all together

Let's pause for a moment and pull together what we have covered thus far.  So many meditate for years without much progress.  Usually this is because they do not have a clear vision of what they are doing and how to do it.  Clear seeing is very important.  Ramana used to say that before you figure "your" life out, know who "You" are.  Stopping to let everything settle out into clarity is called mediation.  Clear seeing gives direction and meditation brings that clarity to our life.In mediation we stop, relax, and watch everything that we are not melt away.  We are left with the pure us.....Happiness, Contentment, Love, and Peace. We relax into the Happiness that we always have been.These podcasts are meant to supplement your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. They are a compilation of what I have found to be the most helpful over the last 50 years on my path of awakening. I feel these podcasts are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last.  Though they, also, all stand on their own.  Since we are each a bit different, if anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy.  If psychotherapy is ever needed, please reach out to a psychotherapist.www.williamecooper.wordpress.com for more support.  You may, especially, enjoy the short contemplations and the resource page which gives you some supportive material.
