[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Is there any specific posture?” tab_id=”1561120609242-f096f78d-1cb0″ el_class=”h6″][vc_column_text]Please sit in a comfortable posture, on a chair or cross-legged on the ground as per your convenience, in an upright, relaxed position. The body should not disturb your meditation. During meditation, you can change position if you need to. Do not lie flat on your back as it may put you to sleep.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What is the source of light in the heart upon which we meditate?” tab_id=”1561120610466-5d4e14be-6583″ el_class=”h6″][vc_column_text]Do not try to see light, such as a flame or candle. Instead, simply assume with conviction that the light is there radiating from within – light without luminosity. You need not go on repeating that thought. Instead, simply observe your inner being very lightly and gently, without forcing the mind to concentrate.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What do I do if my mind is racing with thoughts?” tab_id=”1561120611120-5975069f-5dfb” el_class=”h6″][vc_column_text]It is normal to have thoughts, as they are natural – it is the function of the mind to think. If your mind starts engaging with other thoughts, simply return your attention to the light in the heart. Over time, as a result of practicing meditation, the thoughts will no longer disturb you. They will pass like clouds in the sky. You will learn to dive deeper into the stillness of your mind. If for any reason the thoughts are too distracting, open your eyes for a few seconds and then continue meditation with eyes closed.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Does Heartfulness require strenuous effort, difficult techniques, a special diet, etc.?” tab_id=”1561120611792-80b22a50-9e64″ el_class=”h6″][vc_column_text]Heartfulness offers flexibility to go at your own pace, as per your own convenience. You can practice in the comfort of your home or even while in flight or in a bus. As you feel the benefit and as your interest grows, a normalization of effort and habits will set in naturally. As your mind is refined, so also will your thoughts and actions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Are there any fees or charges for practicing Heartfulness?” tab_id=”1561120612493-59745845-943e” el_class=”h6″][vc_column_text]Heartfulness practice, including sessions with trainers, is completely free of any cost or fees.
