Thought Adjuster: “Some scientific minds among you have begun to study how meditation can affect your physical well-being. They have discovered how the practice of meditation can even activate genes that promote the development of antibodies, making you less susceptible to illness. Meditation is excellent for combating stress and effective in preparing your mind to face the challenges of daily life with greater strength and wisdom. With so many benefits that are just beginning to be discovered, it is helpful to clarify what is considered meditation.

Indeed, many benefits are gained when a person learns to master their own mind. The negative thoughts that arise daily in the minds of most people in this world have physical repercussions on your body. Your physical body does not distinguish between real or imagined stimuli, as the interpretation of every stimulus happens through the mind. This is why stress, which is so prevalent in modern society, is the same response and presents the same symptoms as the stress you would experience if you were fighting for survival in a primitive world. Your body reacts the same way whether your mind is gripped by fear of being attacked by a wild animal or by fear of not meeting your work goals and missing out on the year-end bonus.

When the human mind is trained in such a way that it can decide which thoughts are accepted, human life becomes easier. The challenges don’t disappear, but the way you face them, with a calmer and more alert mind, makes these problems lose their apparent importance. It is a valuable endeavor to dedicate time each day to find calm and become increasingly aware of the thoughts that enter your mind, to make the necessary adjustments, and begin to master this important resource for your existence: the human mind. As one of you once said, ‘the mind is the builder.’ It is in your mind that you create your own reality.

However, calming the mind and controlling thoughts is only part of the training necessary to achieve greater control over your life. The crucial step to achieving the greatest benefits—those that transcend mortal life—is establishing a connection with the source of all that is. When a human being manages to find the Heavenly Father who dwells within their own mind, that is when the greatest benefits for life are manifested. It is through this that priorities are reorganized to promote what results in spiritual growth. It is through this that the peace that surpasses all understanding becomes a palpable reality in life. It is through this that love spontaneously arises in the hearts of those who experience the love of the Father and gain an additional dimension in their vision of life and its purpose. Only when a human being connects with the God who lives within them—their Thought Adjuster—do ‘the gates of heaven open’ and ‘blessings pour out’ on those fortunate seekers.

So do not think of meditation as a simple formula. It is not simply about silencing your mind and quieting all your thoughts. It is not only about relaxing your body. This is just the mechanical aspect of meditation. What is more desirable is the connection, so that once your body and mind have calmed down a bit, you go to that inner space with the intention of speaking with your Father in heaven. It is simply your desire to hear the silent voice of God within you that will help you overcome all the distance and separation you may have imagined to exist between your Heavenly Father and you.

Thus, you will discover that some of your ideas about meditation are far from reality. Indeed, many sit alone in silence trying to relax their minds, but many others find the perfect balance that helps them establish their connection with the divinity within when they take a walk in nature, sit watching the sunset, watch their children play, or even write in their journal, trying to extract ideas from their higher mind. And yes, many achieve these benefits through prayer. There is no single formula that works for everyone, nor is there only one path to finding God. Each person may reach Him through their own resources and in their own individual way. The only requirement is the supreme desire to find the Father and then to strive to become more like Him.”
