The Real News

The Real News

The constant bombardment of news updates and social media rabbit holes can leave the head spinning. Not only can it sound like the same cycle of news over and over (the ever repeating known), it can be overwhelming trying to decipher what is a credible source of information and how much emphasis to place on this information. 

The truth is though, as the saying goes, “today’s news is tomorrow’s fish and chips paper”. Meaning, today’s news, which might be of great interest to us at the time, by tomorrow is no longer true or relevant. 

So, where does this leave us, in a world saturated with information? What do we make of all the news? How do we best access the real news with clarity, and without the overwhelm?

When we practice Vedic Meditation, our mind regularly settles down to its least excited state and we make contact with the unbounded field that is the source of all creative intelligence and natural expression. It is the source from which everything is manifesting. So, when continual contact is made with the unbounded state our fine level of feeling or intuition, begins to refine and merge with the qualities of the vast unbounded field of manifestation. We begin to experience and sense ‘the future in the making’.

It all comes down to awareness. News/information is everywhere, the question is, how perceptive of it are we? 

With refined sensory perception, a result of regular practice of Vedic Meditation, news begins to come to us. We no longer seek out the news to merely discover what is going on around us, we use the news as a way to validate whether it matches with our experience and our fine level of feeling; whether it matches with of what our inner consciousness state already sensed. 

When our inner experience, matches with our external experience, our ability to make good decisions and adapt to challenges increases. Life becomes more frictionless.
