Meditations

Heal Your Life with Your Mind

Basically there are two kinds of meditation: Active and Contemplative.

Meditation that is “active” means that the meditator controls the thought process and gives it direction. Active meditation is used when the person using it has a specific goal in mind. This kind of meditation is demonstrated in our recordings of Universal Morning and Evening meditations.

Contemplation, by contrast, is “passive” meditation. It is a state of being, ideal when one doesn’t have a specific goal in mind – the meditator simply wants to be. Passive meditation is a great way to de-stress and recharge. It can also help find solutions to problems and provide clear ideas about future goals. Ho’oponopono is a great example of this kind of meditation.

Both forms of meditation are important and necessary in daily life. It is the meditator who must become sensitive to the urgings of his or her inner self to determine which type to use at any given time.

“Success: Full Living offers us a roadmap to inner peace and to a balance of inner and outer success.”

Gerald Jampolsky,M.D

“In Success: Full Relating, Justin Belitz, OFM, offers seven principles he has learned and lived— often through great struggle—about making relationships richer and more fulfilling.”

Barbara Stahura, Author and Certified Instructor, Journal to the Self®

“Jose Silva, the founder of the Silva Method, is a man I have admired for a long time. I have used the Silva Method of visualization for many years. It has helped me overcome illnesses, accidents and avoid surgery. I urge you to attend Silva’s training sessions.”

Wayne Dyer, Ph.D, Author and Certified Instructor, Journal to the Self®

“The field of personal improvement and inspirational writing is riddled with pseudo-technological claptrap very similar to the field of psychiatry. Fr. Justin’s writing is remarkably devoid of such; indeed, his messages are powerful truths about how to grow in life. He has crystallized his teaching with vigor, warmth, and love. This is some book!”
