Meditation Candle : Useful accessories in meditation

Meditation Candles are very useful accessories in your meditation activities. If you have a separate meditation room, using candles while meditating can be an excellent idea.

Candles can help give you that great feeling of a little warmth and light in the room while you are meditating. Some specialized candles are perfume based and they will fill the room with a pleasing aroma producing a sense of relaxation and calm. In some specific meditation techniques such as ‘Trataka’(the third eye meditation) using a candle is often recommended by many masters. Gazing at the tip of the flame of the candle constantly is also one form of meditation, which helps in increasing concentration.

Even if you can’t have a separate meditation room, using candles while meditating can be very helpful. The light from the candles has a charm in it. Thousand of years ago when people started meditation, there was no electricity or any other modern invention. At that the only way to meditate at night was to produce some light by using fire. The use of candles and lamp is, therefore, very old and is a part of tradition in many meditation practices. Though not absolutely necessary, using meditation candles enhance your meditation experience.

Meditation candles can also be given as gifts to your meditation loving friends. They will love it for sure.
