How do you meditate?

Answer 1

There are a lot of different meditations that you can do. It depends on what your goals are and what works for you.

Working in the garden can be a meditation, lying quietly on your back and simlpy trying to clear your mind, or sitting in a comfortable position and trying to keep just one thought in your mind are all simple meditations that I enjoy, but there are many more.

This is what Gods Word/Bible says:Only in the Lord can you find the true Peace, Love, and Joy one is looking for in their heart & soul.

Joshua 1:8
Do not let this Book of the Law(bible) depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

Psalm 1:2
But his delight is in the law of the LORD(bible), and on his law he meditates day and night.

Psalm 119:97
Oh, how I love your law(bible)! I meditate on it all day long.

Phil 4:8
[ Meditate on These Things ] Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

Dear QT on Y! Answers,

I guess it depends on what you mean by meditation.

Meditation in Eastern religions is often associated with clearing your mind, etc. There is value in getting away, clearing your mind, and in some cases it helps relieve stress etc. However, i don't think it really helps you connect with God (unless you take that time to pray, fast, or read God's word).

For Christians meditation involves thinking about God's word, and asking the Holy Spirit to help you apply the word specifically for your life.

Hope that helps. Kindly,

Nickster

The Greek word used is "meletao" which means "to take care of" or "resolve in your mind" to do these things. This verse is 1 Timothy 4:15: "Meditate upon these things (preceding verses): give thyself wholly to them;..." Paul clarifies the words "save thyself...and others" in verse 16. "Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee." Taking heed unto the Word of God (doctrine), you will not be "giving heed...to doctrines of devils" (verse 1). This seems to be the contextual meaning of "save thyself." The hearers also will be saved from "giving heed to seducing spirits."



As you can see, then, true Christian meditation is an active thought (thinking, resolving) process whereby one gives himself to study of the Word, praying over it, asking God to give you understanding by the Spirit, putting it into practice in daily life, and allowing it (the Scriptures) become the rule for life and practice as you go about your daily activities. This causes spiritual growth and maturing in the things of God as taught you by His Holy Spirit indwelling you as a believer.
