The meditation techniques offered by the Peace Within initiative draw inspiration from Sahaja Meditation, a method developed by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. A key element of this approach is the attainment of 'thoughtless awareness,' a state of mental stillness where the constant stream of thoughts subsides, allowing for a deeper sense of peace and silence. The Peace Within Initiative focuses on the universal aspects of these techniques, presenting them in a way that is accessible and relevant to individuals of all backgrounds, without specific religious or spiritual frameworks, to promote a more centered and harmonious life and enhance inner peace and well-being.
