Philosophy of Direct Meditation

• We are all part of a larger, divine Universal Intelligence, and this divinity rests unrecognised within most people.
  
  
• The reality which we experience as our daily lives, is just part of what is available to us, constrained by the limitations of "normal" consciousness, and the physical bodies which sustain us.
  
  
• Every person is on a journey, the purpose of which is to move closer to achieving a sustained, conscious oneness with the Universal Intelligence.
  
  
• The experiences and challenges that characterise our lives, give us an unlimited number of opportunities to choose the paths that we will follow, and it is the choices we make every day in every way, which progress, or slow us on our journeys.
  
  
• Through deep meditation we are able to come closer to "knowing" the Universal Intelligence, and to receiving the inspiration and energy to make choices that are imbued with love and wisdom.
  
  
• Direct Meditation is a form of deep meditation that, for those who find themselves available to the experience, suggests profound changes in our perspective on life and reality, redefining the meaning and purpose of our personal journeys, and confirming our capacity to improve every situation upon which we bring focus.
  
  
• Direct Meditation helps practitioners to recognise and thank the blockages to our "knowing" the Universal Intelligence, and then to move beyond our usual consciousness to a place closer to the Divine Core

Principles of Direct Meditation

• Acknowledgment that all creation is part of a greater Universal Intelligence and whole - and that all mankind is created equal.
  
  
• A preparedness to accept that there are greater things beyond our normal material world - and current levels of consciousness.
  
  
• Direct Meditation is non-denominational; there is no ritual, rigour, faith, religion, dogma, teaching or creed.
  
  
• Direct Meditation is neither a sect, nor an esoteric spiritual movement.
  
  
• Direct Meditation will not be encumbered by unnecessary bureaucracy or infrastructure.
  
  
• All people who participate will not be judged and will treat all other participants as equal - as they would expect to be treated as equal themselves.
  
  
• All members will respect one another, avoid personally criticising each other, either directly or indirectly, except where such criticism is of a constructive nature and acceptable by the recipient.
  
  
• All members will aspire to be examples to others in terms of their behaviour, conduct, hospitality, goodwill and selflessness.
  
  
• All members will not push, coerce or persuade other people to practice the Direct Meditation technique.
  
  
• All other people’s views will be respected.
  
  
• All members will not be driven by false modesty, spiritual pride, ego nor a desire to ‘prove themselves’ - forever remaining aware that in the greater scheme of things, these very traits are of themselves inner blockages.
