Discover Effortless, Enjoyable and Effective Meditation

" In Samadhi, that very deep state of meditation,
you are given energy and long-lasting bliss. It carries you higher and higher until your very presence radiates love."

Unlike guided meditation, Sahaj Samadhi does not require accessories, nor any guidance once learned. This meditation can be done anywhere: on a plane, in a waiting room, at the office – any place you can sit with your eyes closed you can experience the silence of Samadhi. 

And generally, it takes you to a much quieter and deeper place as well.

Sahaj Samadhi actually means "effortless meditation". It does not require controlling the mind like concentration meditations, nor does it require vigilant observation of thoughts and emotions like mindfulness meditation. Thus, it has been found to be easier and quicker to learn than Mindfulness or concentration which require mental effort and take a longer time to master.

How Is It Different from Mindfulness, Concentration or Guided Meditation?

DISCOVER THE SECRET OF

EFFORTLESS MEDITATION

The Sahaj Samadhi Meditation Course trains your conscious mind to experience the silent depths of its own nature.

Sahaj, in Sanskrit, means effortless. Samadhi is meditation - a natural state beyond waking, sleeping and dreaming that is an unlimited reservoir of energy, intelligence and creative power and a place of infinite peace and tranquility.

The practice of Sahaj Samadhi brings these qualities into our daily experience, resulting in increased energy, clarity, joy and deep inner peace.

"I am enjoying the calmness and the peace that comes with Sahaj Samadhi Meditation." 
- Dr Julia Lewis

"Sahaj Samadhi allows me to tap into a reservoir of energy, which leaves me rejuvenated and revitalized, like a new person."
