Live In Freedom

Steady practice of superconscious meditation purifies the mental field and is practice for living free in the world. Freedom from mental conditioning is the goal, meditation is the means.
~Yogacharya Ellen Grace O'Brian

What does it mean to live free in the world? Why would we want that? Our mind, our mental field is full of impressions from past experiences, good and bad.  Often the previous bad experiences influence our reactions to current experiences. It is a common saying that an event or something someone said has "pushed our buttons". When that happens we may feel angry and/or upset. Those buttons are the impressions in our mind. Superconscious meditation smooths out those impressions in our mind and creates new positive impressions. This is what freedom is, to be free of the negative mental conditioning and live our lives from a place of positive thoughtful action rather than re-action.
