    2046: Lake Meditation - Connecting to Universal Consciousness (R)

    It's been a while since I have recorded a meditation strictly for Zen Commuter.  But the time has come.  The 16 minute meditation I created is to help practitioners connect to universal consciousness.  The recording starts with breath work, then transitions to body awareness and ultimately with a visualization.  Please head out to www.patreon.com/zencommuter to avail yourself to the MP3 file.  Enjoy.

    Rudy Daniel - Thought Leader and Creator of the Affirmate App

    Rudy Daniel - Thought Leader and Creator of the Affirmate App

    As Rudy puts it…
    My journey of self-exploration accelerated in my mid-thirties, a point in life where I questioned the deeper meaning of existence. At that juncture, I sensed a desire for more profound experiences, realizing that accumulating possessions and following the same patterns lacked depth and meaning. In this quest, I delved into the philosophies of Eastern traditions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Zen, Tao, and more, alongside exploring Western philosophy, science, and the arts. Engaging in extensive reading and embracing various mindfulness practices, I gradually uncovered a profound approach to living—a deeper connection with the universe that changed my perception of life.
