The Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2 Verse 8

अविनाशि तु तद्विद्धि येन सर्वमिदं ततम्‌।
विनाशमव्ययस्यास्य न कश्चित्कर्तुमर्हति॥

Understand that which pervades the entire body is indestructible. No one is able to destroy the imperishable soul.

Meaning (Hindi):
इसे तू जान कि जो इस शरीर में व्याप्त है, वह अविनाशी है। इस अविनाशी आत्मा का नाश करने का कोई कर्ता नहीं हो सकता॥



Meaning (in English): 

 In this verse, Lord Krishna gives the knowledge of the eternal nature of the soul (Atman). He explains that the soul that exists in the body is indestructible and immortal. It cannot be destroyed by any external force or action. 



  Lord Krishna emphasizes that the soul is imperishable and exists outside the physical body. It is eternal and unaffected by  changes  in the material world. The soul transcends birth and death and remains constant and unchanging.  

 


 By understanding the indestructible nature of the soul, one can gain a broader perspective on life. This knowledge helps people to overcome fear, attachment and the temporary nature of worldly things. Recognizing the eternal nature within allows for spiritual growth and fosters a deeper connection with the divine.  

 Lord Krishna reminds Arjuna and all seekers of truth to focus on the eternal soul and not be swayed by temporary circumstances. This understanding enables people to face challenges with courage, detachment and  unwavering faith in the eternal nature of the soul.

Christian Meditation Methods for Mindfulness and Inner Calm

Christian meditation is a deep practice in Christianity, which aims at creating a personal connection with God, inner peace, and growing spiritually. Most meditations make an effort to empty the mind while Christian meditation stresses filling the mind and heart with God’s presence and the truth found in scripture. This has been practiced since the early days of Christian monasticism to this day as an integral part of Christian spirituality. In this all-inclusive survey, we are going to analyze Christian meditation including; its nature; biblical foundations; techniques; benefits; and ways one can incorporate it into his or her life.       Christian Meditation:

Meaning as well as IntentionChristian meditation is a type of prayer where people concentrate on God’s Word and His presence for intimacy purposes. It involves thinking about what is written in the Bible, meditating on who God is, or looking for ways to think, want, or act like Him. The reason why Christians meditate can be expressed in two ways: to achieve inner peace by being still in the presence of God and to aid spiritual growth through renewing minds (Romans 12:2) and hearts with scripture truths.

Christian meditation was born out of the early monastic traditions in the Christian Church. Meditative prayer was practiced by the Desert Fathers and Mothers, who were some of the earliest Christian monks and hermits as a means of withdrawing from worldly distractions to grow closer to God. Many times, they would meditate on and recite biblical psalms among other passages to allow themselves to be filled with God’s word.

Biblical Foundations of Christian Meditation

Old Testament FoundationsThe Old Testament has some of its roots deep in meditation. The Hebrew term for “meditate,” Hagar appears several times, almost always contextually associated with reflecting upon God’s law. Psalm 1:2 states that “his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.” This verse emphasizes continuously musing on God’s Word as a cause for gladness as well as direction.

Another crucial verse is Joshua 1:8 which teaches: “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success.” Consequently, meditation becomes an avenue through which one can internalize God’s commandments and lead a life that pleases Him.
