The Art of Meditation Course : Sahaj Samadhi Meditation

Deep Rest with Sahaj Samadhi Meditation

Connect to the Source

The Art of Meditation (AOM) is a powerful yet effortless technique that allows the conscious mind to experience the silent depths of its own nature. AOM is also known as Sahaj Samadhi. Sahaj, in Sanskrit, means effortless and Samadhi is the silent yet lively state of awareness that lies at the source of thought – a state beyond waking, sleeping and dreaming that is an unlimited reservoir of energy, intelligence and creative power and a place of infinite peace and tranquility.

During your AOM practice the mind effortlessly experiences this state of Samadhi. Upon finishing your meditation you will find that you feel infused with these qualities of energy, clarity, creativity and perhaps most importantly, deep inner peace.

Easy to Learn

AOM is a simple mental practice that can be easily learned by anyone who can think a thought. With only two 20-minute daily sessions AOM brings profound transformation to your life. If you’re thinking: “But I don’t have 20 minutes twice a day!”  No need to worry. The improved clarity of mind AOM brings will augment your efficiency manifold resulting in increased productivity and accomplishment with much less wasted effort.

Personalized Instruction

Although AOM is easy to learn it requires personalized instruction from a qualified teacher. It is not something that can be learned from a book. All AOM teachers have been personally trained and qualified by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in a rigorous course of study so that they can teach you this effortless technique in a precise, systematic way for maximum results. In fact, it is taught in the exact same way that it has been taught for thousands of years through a long tradition of Masters out of India.

Please contact your local teacher to find out when the AOM courses are scheduled.

The Youth Empowerment Seminar has helped me immensely. I have been dependent on drugs for a while. I never thought I had the stamina to live without them. Amazingly, I am more calm and happy now. I have discovered a new energy in myself.

Anirudh Singh

I had always heard and seen people meditating, but never quite understood what "happens" or what one "does" for meditation ; until 24th Feb 2009 - when I was initiated into the ART OF LIVING Family; with my Part-1 Basic Course. And then - the flight began! I have since then been practicing Meditation everyday! And it has been a truly enriching and transforming experience for me - since every day's meditation brings is different from the previous days! It brings in newer insights, and more depth! I have become more observant of my inner thoughts, and my awareness has increased. Not only that - it has helped me become calmer and centered more focused and also my Intuitive skills have sharpened a lot ever since I started meditating. And the Sahaj Samadhi Meditation is like Instant Coffee - in almost no time you're transported to a different realm! Such is the power of the Guru Mantra in Sahaj! Meditation is going to be 1 habit I am going to keep for all time to come! It truly is the art of doing NOTHING!

Frank Schmidt, Business Analyst

When I was 16 years, I wanted to do meditation, and started trying it out through books and trial and error. I had one good experience and failed to achieve it later. So I gave up on meditation. Later when I started learning Sahaj, I could relate directly when the teacher said, 'It's not about the experience, but the benefits to your mind and body.' This was such an Aha!-experience, and by proper guidance it has made all the difference in my life.
