We are the creators of Open Source Meditation, a non-profit, open exploration of all meditation techniques Australia, styles and traditions without any of the obligations or hidden agendas.
Open Source Meditation is open, rational and logical. It says real meditation is not exclusive to one religion or one meditation technique or science or even one sport or one field of art or creative expression. Meditation is free and open to all just as open source software is free and open.
Meditation put simply, is the new common sense. It should not be encumbered by the fundamentalism of one group, religion or even science. Secularists and atheists can meditate just as effectively as meditators that are religious, whether that be Mindfulness meditation, or Buddhist meditation, transcendental meditation, Christian meditation, Zen meditation, chakra meditation or Islamic styles of meditation.
Nearly all popular meditation groups Australia are tied to a specific style or religion. Some, for example, advocate just one meditation technique, mantra meditation, and to be financially committed to their group.
Most religious meditation groups similarly focus on their religion and usually focus on one meditation technique, for example, mindfulness meditation. Open Source Meditation is no different to Open Source software, multiple contributors develop and evolve the functionality for the benefit of all. more
There is nothing so incongruous to humanity as war. All combatants are scarred deeply for ever and ever. No one ever truly wins in battle.
Many of us feel anxious, sad and even depressed, it cycles endlessly around and around in our thoughts and feelings.
Of the many wars and resistance movements across the globe, the war in Ukraine is particularly gruesome, unfair and bloody. It also is receiving the most media exposure and having the largest effect emotionally and mentally.
I spent four decades teaching the path to an "Almighty" God. Today, I invite you to join a "Divine Community"
For 45 years, I wrote and taught within the traditions of a monotheistic, autocratic deity. But through the lived experience of my own body—navigating the tremors of Parkinson’s and the stillness of meditation—I realized that God is not a distant ruler.
God is a Community. God is the living web that connects the trillions of suns in our multiverse to the very cells within us. In this space, we move away from the hierarchy of "The One" and into the resonance of "The We." Whether you are seeking relief from physical pain or a deeper sense of belonging, you are invited to join our small circles as we learn to vibrate with the heart of the Whole.
