There are million types of reflection on the planet, yet assuming you circumvented the world taking photos of individuals pondering large numbers of them would look very comparable. Why? Since there are a few essential components of the contemplation act that are utilized across the globe to quiet the psyche and adjust the body.
Seven-Point Meditation Posture
I come from a Tibetan Buddhist foundation, so the system I ordinarily utilize is the seven marks of Vairocana. The Buddha Vairocana is in many cases addressed sitting in this stance at the focal point of a mandala of the five rule Buddhas. He is the master of the buddha family, all white addressing the insight of widely inclusive space, as well as it's precise inverse, the very obliviousness that is the main thrust behind our pattern of misery. He addresses, to a limited extent, the possibility that our obliviousness can be changed into immense openness, which can oblige everything. Not a terrible good example, isn't that so?
First Point of Posture: Sitting Down
For we who are familiar with sitting in a seat, you may be a piece scared by the thought of sitting on the ground in a leg over leg style. This is a great chance to check it out. On the off chance that you observe that it is troublesome, you can expect one of the less difficult with folded legs stances I notice beneath.
There are a couple of minor departure from sitting with folded legs on the ground, however every one of them are best upheld by having a conventional contemplation pad. I'm inclined toward those sold at Samadhi Pads as their seats are very much made and firm. It merits the speculation to buy a pad in the event that you will send off a reliable reflection practice. What's more, on the off chance that you will utilize cushions from your lounge chair or bed that is OK, however it takes a ton of change in accordance with get you sitting sufficiently high so that it's not excruciating. All things considered, to get a few strong pads and sit on those to get rolling, take the plunge.
Six Methods for sitting for Reflection
1. The Quarter Lotus
Here you can sit on your contemplation seat with your legs inexactly crossed and the two feet resting underneath the contrary thigh or knee. I suggest this technique.
2. The Half Lotus
This is a minor departure from the abovementioned. Your legs are crossed with one foot laying on the contrary thigh. The other foot can overlap under the top leg and rest beneath the knee or thigh.
3. The Full Lotus
Your legs are crossed with the two feet laying on top of your contrary thighs in Padmasana (Lotus Posture).
4. The Burmese Position
In the event that you can't sit with your legs crossed, that is fine. Simply sit with the two feet laying on the floor in this casual position, also known as Sukhasana (Simple Posture).
5. Seiza
Rather than sitting with your legs crossed you can likewise bow and spot a pad or yoga props between your legs. This customary contemplation act is basically a set up Virasana (Legend Posture) or Vajrasana (Thunderclap Posture).
6. Chair
At long last, indeed, you can utilize a seat on the off chance that you really want to. No disgrace in it. Simply make certain to sit away from the rear of the seat and put your feet immovably on the floor, lined up with your hips and knees.
At times individuals inquire as to whether they can think resting. You can, yet you're bound to nod off. In the event that you will do that you could put your feet on the ground with your knees up to keep a feeling of attentiveness.
Second Place of Stance: Prolong the Spine
Having laid out this solid groundwork lifting yourself up through your spine is significant. Conventional similarities say that your spine ought to resemble a bolt or a heap of coins, one on top of the other. Maybe a bar could go through the highest point of your head and down through your base. You need to feel inspired when you plunk down to contemplate.
Third Purpose in Stance: Resting Your Hands
The easiest thing to do with your hands is to lay them on your lap. You can drop your hands at your sides and get them at the elbow then, at that point, drop them palms down on your thighs. This is a characteristic hub guide on which toward rest them, offering better help for your upstanding spine. In his new book The Casual Psyche, Kilung Rinpoche specifies that sitting with your palms down will in general loosen up the progression of energy all through your body.
