Meditation

Worry, think or wonder about

From day to day my head is quite fully occupied. Thinking what to eat, mails, new projects, finish my to do list. Specially in this world of data there is always something more to check. There is hardly a moment of rest these days. Even on the toilet I watch Youtube. This ends up in a Monkeymind. To much random stuff that goes through my mind, i have no control at it. I just start to think about stuff and before I know it its one hour later.

I wanted to learn to control the mind. So I went in retreat with the buddhist monks in Thailand where they practise vipassana meditation. You can go here living with the monks and fully focus on meditation, nothing else. Its super boring but an amazing experience! It that really helps to get a clear mind and learn to control your thoughts. They learn you to not think about the past of worry about the future. Live in the now. Really taste the food you eat, feel the sun on your skin, the air you breathe. It makes you live in the present. Obviously I don’t master this amazing skill after 10 days, but definitely learned a lot from them!

The Ancient Art of Contemplation

“If I had to say in a single line what the Gene Keys are, I would say they are a universal language made up of 64 genetic archetypes. If I had to say what the Gene Keys do, I would say they allow you to completely re-envision yourself and recreate your life at a level limited only by your own imagination. The Gene Keys are also a transmission. In Buddhism there is a wonderful word known as ‘dharma’. It is one of those words pregnant with many dimensions of meaning. It points towards the existence of a higher truth or universal law pervading the universe. Because the realisation of the dharma is beyond words, its transmission can only be received through silence and deep meditative absorption. The Gene Keys are just such a transmission. As archetypes they each contain a fractal aspect of the same universal Truth. As genetic archetypes they allow you to resonate that Truth deep within each cell of your body.

This brings us to a very important point that you must know before you enter the living dharma-field of the Gene Keys. Because the Gene Keys are a transmission beyond words, they will not yield their secrets to an intellectual, grasping mind. The more you chase after them with your mind the more frustrated you may become. As archetypes, the Gene Keys are designed to be contemplated, and contemplation demands relaxation and patience. Contemplation is one of the greatest and least understood of the ancient mystical arts and paths.
