Soul Sustenance

Principles for the Body To Make Early Morning Meditation Successful (cont.)

. Freshen the self before morning meditation, with a shower or a hot drink. Avoid speaking before the meditation.

. Sit with an upright posture, away from the walls or comfortable chairs. If the body is ill, awaken but sit comfortably, and do not force the self.

. Have a good circulation of fresh air.

. Subtle lighting creates an atmosphere of meditation. If it is too dark it will lead to sleepiness; if it is too light there will be eye-strain.

. Burn incense sticks ("agarbattis"), only if it doesn't irritate your and others' eyes and throats.
