3. “To study the Way is to study the self.
To study the self is to forget the self.
To forget the self is to be enlightened by
all things.
To be enlightened by all things is to remove
the barriers between one's self and others.”
(Dogen, 2002)
4. Tujuan meditasi adalah untuk
mengembangkan Self-awareness, self-
regulation, and self-transcendence (S-ART).
• Self awareness: kesadaran mengenai keberadaan
dirinya sendiri
• Self regulation : kemampuan untuk memodulasi
perilakunya secara efektif
• Self-transcendence: membuat hubungan yang
positif antara dirinya dengan orang lain dengan
tidak mementingkan dirinya sendiri melainkan
mendahulukan kepentingan orang lain (pro-sosial)
5. Meditasi adalah merupakan
pengembangan mental, dimana
praktisi membangun rasa
sejahtera dengan cara mengenal
dan mengembangkan dirinya
sendiri, pola perilakunya sendiri
maupun rasa sosial yang tinggi.
6. Meditasi berdasarkan atas loving-
kindness-compassion akan
menciptakan rasa sejahtera dan
membantu mencegah perasaan
marah atau teriritasi
7. pengulangan kalimat atau
“mantra”secara batin merupakan
kunci untuk mencapai keadaan
meditatif. Praktek lain yang
dikerjakan adalah dengan
memusatkan perhatian pada
pernafasan, saat menarik dan
membuang nafas.

9. Meditasi difokuskan pada:
• pengembangan kesadaran batin, dan
• membebaskan diri dari keinginan dan
perasaan tidak puas , suatu bentuk
equanimity atau diterjemahkan sebagai
“melihat sesuatu kejadian dengan gugahan
(arousal) yang seimbang tanpa
hyperexcitability .
Wawasan yang tidak terdistorsi ini disebut
juga persepsi tanpa interpretasi.
10. Self transendence adalah kesadaran
akan dirinya dan orang-orang di
sekitarnya, mengarah pada perilaku
etis.
Perilaku etis didasarkan pada konsep
cinta dan kasih sayang yang universal
pada semua mahluk hidup
11. Kesadaran adalah integrasi dari
otak dan interpretasi dari semua
informasi yang ada pada suatu
waktu tertentu. Saat tidak tidur,
informasi sensoris menerima
rangsang dari lingkungan .
12. Pengaruh meditasi pada otak
sustained
meditation leads to
something called
neuroplasticity, whi
ch is defined as the
brain's ability to
change, structurall
y and
functionally, on the
basis of
environmental
input.
13. It Increases Gray Matter
A 2005 study on
American men and
women who meditated a
mere 40 minutes a day
showed that they had
thicker cortical walls
than non-meditators.
What this meant is that
their brains were aging
at a slower rate. Cortical
thickness is also
associated with decision
making, attention and
memory.
14. Lobus frontalis
frontal lobes at the
front of the brain
modulate voluntary
movement; speech;
working memory;
planning of
complex, sequential
actions; emotions;
and self-reflection and
personality traits.
15. lobus temporalis
The temporal
lobes, along with the
limbic system
(hypothalamus, amyg
dala, hippocampus, ci
ngulate gyrus, orbito-
frontal cortex) are
involved
iemotion, motivation,
and memory
processing.
18. It Can Be Better
Than Sleeping
In a 2006
study, college
students were asked
to either
sleep, meditate or
watch TV. They were
then tested on their
alertness by being
asked to hit a button
every time a light
flashed on a screen.
The meditators

regularly for three
months, 40 of the

significant drops in
blood pressure
levels and were
able to reduce

21. Telomeres -- the protective
caps at the end of our
chromosomes -- are the
new frontier of anti-aging
science. Longer telomeres
mean that you're also
likely to live longer.
Research done by the
University of
California, Davis'
Shamatha Project has
shown that meditators
have significantly higher
telomerase activity that
non-meditators.
Telomerase is the enzyme
that helps build
telomeres, and greater
22. t Can Slow The Progression Of
HIV
A 2008 study on HIV positive
patients found that, after an
eight-week meditation
course, patients who'd
meditated showed no decline
in lymphocyte content
compared with non-
meditators who showed
significant reduction in
lymphocytes.
Lymphocytes or white blood
cells are the "brain" of the
body's immune system, and
are particularly important for
HIV positive people.
