Life a Meditation Santosh Nambiar

You may have experienced intense peace and stillness when sitting in a quiet room meditating. However for most of us this peace is shattered the minute we step out of that quiet room and are confronted with jealousy, anger, fear, and an ego-filled violent society. My question to you is: if you are unable to bring peace into the whole of your life - whether this be in your chaotic workplace dealing with angry and egoistic workmates, or at home dealing with adolescent children, does the peace that you experience when meditating have limited application in your life? If your answer, like mine, is 'yes', the question then becomes - how can you bring peace into your daily life so that you are able to live in this world free from fear, anger, jealousy, stress and anxiety? How can you exist in modern society as presence, space, peace, when you are surrounded by anger, fear, hatred and violence? How can you exist as a 'space of peace' moment to moment without getting dragged into the madness? How can you make Life a Meditation rather than your meditation being a 30 minute or one hour daily affair? Putting into practice any of the pointers mentioned in this book will help you become or be this 'space of peace'. And in the process, you might discover that there is no need to sit in a room and meditate. You can be this 'space of peace' wherever you are - at a busy work place, a board meeting, at home cooking dinner, rushing to pick up your children, arriving late to the office, or even when you are taking a stroll in a park. You can be this moving 'space of peace' wherever you go.
