Calm Abiding: The Path to Tranquility with Shamatha | Guided Meditation - 20 MIN - NO MUSIC

Welcome to this guided Shamatha meditation session, a practice I designed inspired by my favorite meditations out there, to introduce you to the art of calm abiding and profound inner peace. Originating from ancient Buddhist traditions, Shamatha meditation is one of the foundational techniques aimed at cultivating a focused, tranquil mind. The term "Shamatha" in Sanskrit means "calm abiding," aptly reflecting the practice's goal of steadying the mind and discovering serenity within.
This revered meditation practice stands as one of the two main styles of Buddhist meditation, alongside Vipassana. While Shamatha meditation focuses on developing focused attention and concentration, guiding the mind to rest in awareness and stability, Vipassana, or "insight meditation," centers on cultivating insight and open monitoring of sensations, thoughts, and emotions. Together, they offer a comprehensive path to enlightenment, with Shamatha building the necessary mental stability and clarity for Vipassana's deep insights into the nature of existence.
Since Shamatha meditation comes from buddhist practice, this version excludes frequencies or background music for those seeking a more traditional experience. Including music or frequencies might disrupt some meditators' observation of natural phenomena as they are. This approach aims to facilitate a connection with one's thoughts and sensations without the influence of external stimuli.

Please remove the advertisement during the session

[@awakeningnowwhat]

Thanks for letting me know this is happening! This is my first YT channel and since the channel is not monetized I thought no ads would ever be placed. I'll figure it out!

[@sulbhaladdha3700]

No meditation should be interrupted by an advt.

[@awakeningnowwhat]

I agree. This was not a setting under my control since my channel is too small to be monetized, but apparently they play ads on them anyways. I'll look into it.
