    INTEGRATED AMRITA MEDITATION TECHNIQUE

    IAM is a simple combination of yoga, pranayama and meditation that takes just 20

    minutes a day. It is a meditation technique for modern days. The technique is a

    synthesis of traditional, time-tested methods suited for the current mental conditions,

    time-constraints and needs of modern man.

    The Art of Mental Mastery

    Meditation is the art of mental mastery. The way we perceive the world around us

    completely depends upon our mind. In our search for happiness, we essentially havetwo optionsmodify the entire world so that everything turns out exactly the way we

    want it or modify our mind so that we are able to be happy, content and peaceful,

    regardless of what happens in the external world. The former is obviously impossible.

    We have very little control over our external world. The only hope for happiness lies in

    controlling the inner world. Meditation is a key element in this process.

    Take up the Remote Control of Your Mind

    Amma, the Spiritual Master who synthesized IAMIntegrated Amrita Meditation

    Technique, says, "The remote control of our mind should rest firmly in the palm of our

    hand." Imagine one with such mental control. Emotions, ideas and memories are at his

    beck and call. If anger comes, he can change the channel. The same with jealousy and

    greed. He can recall any past event, like reversing a DVD. If he wants ideas, he only need

    turn to the "idea channel" and a stream of creative ideas will flow forth. No more staring

    at the blank screen of writers block. Total and complete mental controlthis is what

    IAM (Meditation) offers.

    Daily Mental Maintenance

    The mind is like a machine. But it is completely up to us to maintain that machine

    properly. Only then will we be able to get the maximum potential out of it. We should

    also know how to turn the machine off. This, sadly, has become a lost art, and the very

    reason we see so many people around us "blowing fuses." IAM (Meditation) Technique

    is a daily mental maintenance system.

    "I was amazed by how little effort you have to put into the meditationand how much benefit you get out of it."

    "It is like a muscle training for your mind. It sharpens your concentration. At the sametime, the technique calms the mind down. So it also helps you relax."When I face difficult situations, I am more laid back now. If I have a problem withsomebody or if I am facing some strong emotions, I'm able to cope with them much better.IAM helps me to stand back and watch my emotions. I have gained the ability to respondintelligently rather than react emotionally."
