We are pleased that Tulku will give be giving another teaching on this Labour Day, 01/05/08.

Introduction on Meditation and the Proper Posture
The first step in meditation is correct physical posture. This is commonly describe as the seven aspects of Vairocana. Vairocana means "what illuminates, what makes clear." So Vairocana is the physical posture of sitting that helps one develop a meditative state and makes the mind stable and clear. 

Body and mind are related. At the subtle level, the body consists of the outer and inner forms. The outer form is our physical body, and the inner form is the channels and prana. It is said that if the body is straight, the channels are straight; and if the channels are straight, then the wind-prana flows straight. When the channels and prana are straight, the mind becomes balanced, calm and clear.  So having a correct and upright posture causes one's mind naturally to come to rest in a state of tranquility or peace.
