The Way of Experience
Experience is the source from which real knowledge begins.
We learn a lot from many sources like scriptures, spiritual lectures and modern books on spirituality. But as the lecture ends or we finish reading the book, we remain the same as before. Experience is the gold that backs the currency of knowledge. Without experience, all knowledge stays abstract and hollow. It is not yet ours.
Heartfulness is a path of experiencing our inner Self. It teaches us to dive deep into our heart, and be in a natural state of love, peace, and calmness. When practiced regularly, meditation helps us become in tune with our heart and develop the capacity to remain poised and balanced at all times.
Heartfulness meditation is a practical technique that can be used in parallel with any other spiritual approach.

Try Heartfulness on your own
Deepen your experience and appreciation of life through this simple daily practice of Heartfulness.
Create the environment
Find a place where you won’t be disturbed. Turn off your phones, televisions, radios and any other sources of distraction. If you need to, tell your room-mates or family members that you will not be available for 30 minutes.
It is recommended that the Heartfulness practice is followed for at least seven days to feel the effects of meditation in a tangible way.
Relax
Sit comfortably and follow the Heartfulness relaxation. This can be done by people of all ages.
Meditate
Gently close your eyes and suppose that a Divine Light is illuminating your heart from within. Rather than trying to visualize it, simply tune in to your heart and be open to any experience that you may have. Do this for 30 minutes. If your mind wanders, gently bring your attention back to your heart. This can be done by anyone who has completed the age of 15.
Once you feel yourself coming out of the meditation naturally, spend a few minutes to write down what you observed in a journal. Keeping a journal of your observations is highly recommended. It provides a practical record of the changes brought about by this meditation over time.
