Meditation & Spiritual Unfoldment
When faced with problems, whether health, stress or just unhappiness, our first reaction in life is to seek a remedy from an external source; in contrast, the solution lies in changing our direction from constantly seeking outwards to consciously seeking inwards. Spiritual Unfoldment is an unveiling of the patternings of the mind. By diving deep within ourselves, the force emitted through this process infuses itself in the patterned areas of our mind, dissolving away all the burdens and unnecessary conditionings and attachments that cause us to lose sight of or experience our true Divine Nature - our Real Self. Through meditation, that inward journey begins.
Individually Prescribed Practices
The Foundation for International Spiritual Unfoldment functions uniquely whereby Meditation and Spiritual practices are individually prescribed for each meditator, based on that individual's unique vibration. With personally prescribed meditation techniques, we can reach more profound levels of ourselves and draw on the more supporting life-giving energies that reside there. The theory that everything is within us is supported herein that the practices given reflect us in all aspects; therefore, they harmonise and put us in direct contact with our essence - the core of our being.
Meditation Benefits your Health
The benefits of meditation are endless. You gain physically from the deep relaxation experienced by the body. Your ability to think clearly will improve as the techniques calm the mind, naturally alleviating stress and helping you to become more positive, precise and alert - a more concentrated person without having to concentrate. The calming of the whole nervous system will benefit the bodily functions that generally absorb the stresses of life.
Meditation increases Perception and Awareness beyond Mindfulness.
In that quietness, you draw from the infinite supply source, energies to heal you mentally, physically and emotionally as you spiritually unfold. In the unfolding process, you gather greater inner strength whilst perception and awareness increase, which will help you face life's adversities as you become more aware of the opportunities inherent in them. Coupled with conscious effort and self-help, you begin to accept yourself, discriminate, and be responsible for your own life. Overall, your life will be transformed and uplifted as you start to draw on and shine that inner light that will reflect on all those around you. Your relationship with other people will improve as you become more open and loving.
Our techniques and practices embrace Mindfulness but are designed to take us beyond the mind - beyond the conscious and subconscious levels of the mind to be centred in the Super-conscious level of ourselves.

Should techniques only deal with the mind and body and not touch the Heart or essential part of ourselves, we would be dominated by the ego or emotions. By going beyond the limitations of the mind through personally prescribed meditation, we begin to unfold the Heart, whose energy becomes the guiding force in life. Therefore, we have a system where the Unfoldment of the Heart accompanies the expansion of the mind and body. Through meditation, we combine and harmonise all three aspects of Man - Body, Mind and Spirit, as we are led from fragmentation to integration.

"I try to inspire humanity to realise and reach within themselves to find the joy that some of us have found. This is the mission and purpose of life - where life is not lived for oneself only but to share with the world. One benefits most from sharing. You can only share if you have something - and in that sharing, an expansion takes place.
The Heart and the mind expand in greater awareness, and everything around us assumes a form that we would never have dreamt of before. Everything becomes Divine and beautiful. In this beauty, we melt away into another world or dimension. We then bring the power and the force of that dimension back with us into this dimension"..............Avatar - Gururaj Ananda Yogi
