If you’re at all familiar with meditation then you know that the types of meditation available today are endless (and the benefits are endless too!) and you might even be familiar with Public Displays of Meditation.
Let me refresh your memory with some of the more common types of meditation:
* Transcendental Meditation (otherwise known as TM)
* Buddhist Meditation
* Chakra Meditation
* Healing Meditation
* Guided Meditation
* Osho Meditation
* Vippassana Meditation
* Mindfulness Meditation
Does PDM ring a bell?
“PD What?” You’re asking yourself?
PDM = Public Display of Meditation
Max Simon, a meditation guru and entrepreneur based out of L.A., has started the movement of Public Displays of Meditation. A public display of meditation is exactly what it sounds like…meditating in a public location. Max gathers groups of people and heads out onto the streets of whatever city he’s in. They find the busiest location possible, sit down and start meditating when Max gives them the sign.
You’re probably wondering what the point of meditating in a busy place is? And don’t people usually meditate in quiet , private places?
When you meditate in public you’ll experience more distractions to begin with. But the cool thing is that having more outside distractions often encourages people to go deeper into their meditation practice. Public displays of meditation make it easy to tune into your inner world, block out the distractions and reach a heightened level of self-awareness. And of course you’ll still reap all the benefits of meditation when you engage in Public Displays of Meditation.
I took part in a PDM held by Max Simon in December 2009 when he was visiting Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There was a group of 15 us and we visited a busy mall and found the busiest place we could to meditate. I remember I was excited and nervous to try this out because I didn’t believe I’d be able to meditate in a public place. The results were shocking and I’m pleased to report that I had my deepest meditation experience ever! A public display of meditation is an exihilerating experience and I recommend you try it with a group of people at least once
