"Meditation is emptying self of all that hinders from the creative forces rising along the natural channels of the physical man" ~ Edgar Cayce Do you believe mediation is beneficial to creativity? Do you practice mediation?

Contemplation on Mediation

Do I believe meditation is beneficial to creativity? Yes! Meditation has, at least, three benefits. First, it helps our concentration. Second, it assists in giving access to a person's subconscious mind. Third, it opens the energy conduit to the human soul. In addition, I believe meditation is most effective when it is practiced in conjunction with prayer and reading the sacred writings of the individual's chosen spiritual path.

Do I practice mediation? Yes! In addition to mediation I also chant, pray, and read the sacred scriptures. Right now, I'm reading The Tablets of the Lord of Hosts, which contains some of the sacred writings revealed by Baha'u'llah. I believe that daily prayer and mediation feeds the soul just as eating a good meal feeds the body.
