Reflections series: Meditation - the Breath of life

Panna Patel for many years felt attracted to meditation but that her time and energy was pulled between many other competing priorities on a daily basis. After a profound experience she had a deep realization about how to live a meditative life while in action and to create time for the things that really matter.

Panna coordinates the activities of the Brahma Kumaris Centre in Canberra and has been serving the community there for over 20 years. An environmental engineer by profession, she works for the Australian Government as an environmental assessor to protect matters of national environmental significance.
