In this video Vladimir Volrab, WCCM National Coordinator for the Czech Republic explores the role of meditation in times of crisis starting off with his personal experience of the crisis.
Vladimir reflects upon our outer and our inner world: “Our outside world is all of sudden limited, we find ourselves constrained and cannot travel or do our regular hobbies.” For many of us, our outer world is reduced to a garden, our home or perhaps our work. Naturally, that makes us more alone with ourselves and the first reaction may be to find other stimuli, filling our days seeking information.
“Yet our inner world is infinitely richer than the outer world. And the key to the inner world is attention and patience” says Vladimir.
“It can take courage to take the first step towards what the tradition calls the most important journey of our lives, a journey into our own hearts.” continues on Vladimir.
“It may be a cliche but the restrictions we’re experiencing in the outer world can lead to the expansion of our inner world. A chance to awaken a thirst that’s inside us. It’s the chance we have as our outer world collapses. “
