Meditation and Emotional Freedom
by Evie Lanitis
In
the mind of the public, meditation and relaxation are closely related.
To some, meditation is ‘just relaxation’. The Clairvision approach is
radically different. For sure, meditation achieves many of the health
benefits obtained through relaxation: decreased blood pressure, reduced
stress etc…
There is however one fundamental difference between the two – meditation
has a dynamic component of awakening. Meditation is about discovering
the mysteries of who one is beyond the ordinary mind – the inner peace
and joy that comes from a sustained meditation practice. One becomes so
much more.
Silencing the mind naturally brings thoughts, emotions and fears to the surface. Everyday distractions bubble up and we become restless. The nature of our mind blocks us. This dilemma is one that students of meditation have struggled with since the beginning.
The Clairvision school
has developed a two-pronged path for today’s fast and increasing chaotic
world. This includes a cultivation of subtle energies and inner silence
through meditation. It also includes deconstruction – undoing unconscious
emotional, mental and spiritual patterns. Without addressing core emotional
charges any relaxation, depth or clarity will be short lived.
The ISIS technique
of deconstruction and regression is based on 3 main principles:
Inner Space Using
the inner space accessed through the third eye meditation
Interaction Working with another student or a practitioner
Sourcing To look for the causes of emotions, belief attitudes, thoughts
– in consciousness.
Through deconstruction, thought processes become fluid, and speed up.
The heart flourishes. Suddenly, life has meaning. A completely new world
opens up in front of us.
What is the Clairvision
School of Meditation? Let me start by explaining the word ‘Clairvision’.
Clairvision does not refer to psychic clairvoyance, but a state of spontaneous
awakening: clarity and vision.
Clair-vision implies taking a different standpoint of consciousness, away
from the chatter of the mind. It is a vision of the heart as much as a
vision of the eye.
Founded in 1987 in
Sydney, Australia by Dr Samuel Sagan,a french medical doctor, the school
has grown into an international school with centres in the USA and Australia.
Courses have been run in the UK and Europe for the last 10 years.
The school is designed for people who live in the world – people with
jobs, families, university students etc… The techniques taught do not
require one to withdraw from daily life – rather they enable us to use
our awareness to interact with the world in a different way.
Essentially experiential
we learn to ‘see for yourself, know for yourself’.
The teachings of the school have the central purpose of leading us to
experiences of consciousness so that we can fathom these mysteries for
ourselves.
