How Often And Why Do I Need To Meditate ?
We regularly and quite easily slip into four main negative habits. So meditation is not only sitting in a quiet corner, and connecting with the self and the Supreme, at a couple of fixed times⏲ during the day, but it is also the way to gently remember and remind ourselves, many times in a day, that we as well as others, are souls or spiritual beings not physical beings, by detaching ourselves from actions and also while being involved in actions. These reminders given to the self over a period of time become natural and prevent us from succumbing to these four habits. Given below is a basic meditation, which you could use to remind yourself regularly during the day:
-I have a body but this body is not me…✅
-I have thoughts but these thoughts are not me …✅
-I have feelings but these feelings are not me …✅
-I have attitudes but these attitudes are not me …✅
-I have emotions but these emotions are not me …✅
-I have beliefs but these beliefs are not me …✅
-I perform many actions through my sense organs, but these sense organs are not me…✅
-I play many roles but I am not my roles…✅
-I experience joy or sorrow through my sense organs, but these experiences are not me …✅
-I am a soul-a being of energy, which is neither created nor can be destroyed, and my original and true nature is one of peace, love, joy and power✅

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
