Welcome to the Art and Practice of Meditation or Contemplation
Made Relatively Easy for the Many
For Beginners to Advanced
Meditation can be of great benefit to our lives, including the healing of our bodies, and far more. Meditation goes by many names, such as, contemplation, reflection or introspection.
The kingdom of God is within us. (The Bible) The consciousness of God is within us. The mysteries of God are within us. Let us go within (more) and find (more of) this kingdom, this consciousness, and these mysteries; and go within and find a greater rest, relaxation, peace, joy, and enlightenment.
The word "introspection means "to look within" , so meditation is "looking within," or "turning within" and "listening within."
Prayer and meditation may compliment each other, so it is good to use them together, along with mantras and affirmations.
In meditation we practice the stilling of our intellectual mind or mental body so the higher mind, the mind of Christ or Buddha, or the mind of God may come through. Stillness -- can help stop our illness and bring us to have a greater health, happiness, and higher consciousness. Meditation can help us to develop the gifts of the Holy Spirit: especially, the gifts of knowledge, wisdom, and discernment (of spirits).
In meditation we may receive progressive inspiration or revelation, and that is primarily how this website is being built. I, William Star, desire to be the heart, head and hand of the ascended masters or the great saints of heaven, and my "continual question" to them is: What do you want on this website? I strive to make a "good attunement", get some revelation or inspiration, and then you see this website, including this page on meditation. I can assure you that I do not get one great revelation, but small revelations or inspiration that gradually add up to what you see on this page and this website. Furthermore, I am continually revising and improving what I get.
Meditation should be natural and easy . Let go, let it flow and enjoy it. Practice makes perfect. Practice brings progress.
The following list is an outline of the topics that will be presented on this page on meditation. We may use these topics to learn to meditate, or to improve our meditation practice. An explanation or greater explanation of these topics will be given as time permits.

My Personal Testimonial About Meditation or Contemplation
I, William Star, have been practicing meditation or contemplation for many years, and I can tell you truly, that the way that this website has been built, including this section on meditation, is by "daily meditation or contemplation." Moreover, I often receive inspiration as I go about daily duties, and then I often put this inspiration in my notes, then I put in on my desktop, and then I am gradually putting the inspiration or information on the website.
I wish you good fortune in your meditation practice, for truly – Things go better with meditation!
We Become What We Meditate On.
God Bless You, I Love You and God Loves You,
William Star
Always Victory and Always Love!

A Home of the 'I AM' Race
If we rearrange the letters of America -- we can get "I am race".
A Nation of the Four Sacred Freedoms --
Freedom of Press, Freedom of Speech, Freedom to Assemble or Gather Together, and Freedom of Religion.
Note: At times the leaders and the people of America have done things that are not right, as the leaders and peoples of all nations have done, so I ask forgiveness for anything that the leaders or peoples of America have done that has not been right, but, in general, America is and has been a Great Land of Freedom and Love to the Earth, and I am grateful for such a God-Given Land. And, I might add that every nation should be a "God-Given Land," and all nations should form a "Family of Nations" or S.U.N., a Spiritual United Nations, under the One God -- called by many names. And all people should form "One Family of God" under Heaven. And I hope and pray that we can all say: "In God: We Trust!"
I AM the Victory of Love, and I AM the Love of Victory!
As above, I AM that Magic Presence of Love,
So below, I AM that Magic Love everywhere I go,
And as I AM that Magic Love everywhere I go,
I will reap that Magic Love that I sow.
