Simple and powerful meditation

Learning to meditate is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this life. For it is only through meditation that you can undertake the journey to discover your true nature, and so find the stability and confidence you will need to live, and die, well.

You are meditation. You can not become what you are not. Problem is MIND. To give an example there is a gold coin at bottom of a pool, you can not see it because of waves/ thoughts (MIND). When there are no waves you can see the gold coin (True self).

Breath is the bridge between your body and life force. If you can watch your breath by witnessing it, your MIND will gradually become quiet.

Sit comfortably and watch your breath go IN and go OUT. If you find your Mind wandering you can COUNT 1-2-3-4 etc with inward and outward breath.

The time usually suggested for beginners is 10 minutes at Dawn or Dusk. Increase this duration to 20-30 minutes as you practice. The proof of a pudding lies in the eating, Your life should gradually change for the better and then you will know its worth. Then, slowly other DOORs will start opening or may be you will get your GURU.

Another property of MIND is it wants to always jump from One point to anther, if you can keep your MIND on ONE single object/thought for the whole day, MIND will eventually get tired and give up and you will experience True Self.

You must also practice self enquiry, ask yourself who AM I, ask HONESTLY and you will start to get the answer. Contemplate on this "WHO AM I"

Are you the BODY? then how you can see it, Are you MIND then how can you watch your thoughts?

Once you learn to direct ALL your senses and MIND inward, YOU will get in touch with your true SELF, you will then realise the nature and mechanisms of this WORLD. GOD will then become CENTRAL thing in your life and everything else will NOT affect you.

Meditation is NOT repression of MIND, Meditation will happen when you have seen ALL and realised the futility of all, at this stage meditation will be natural and happen easily. If you ask ONE word which is most important for success of meditation, it is WITNESSING

Meditation is the living of HERE and NOW; it is a tremendous experience with limitless power, which can change your life completely and can give a new course to your destiny. Meditation is a superior state of consciousness and therefore cannot be fully understood unless experienced.
"The equality and oneness of the Essential Self (Atman) and the Cosmic Self (Param atma) is called Samadhi, to describe which is beyond the power of speech, being known by self-experience alone."

Meditation in Short spell or a state all the time ?
Meditation in the midst of activity is immeasurably superior to the quietistic approach. This kind of meditation really produces significant inner transformation and enlightenment. Of course, meditating in the midst of distractions is initially much more difficult -- with fewer short-term rewards -- than sitting quietly alone. However, if you want to make the heightened awareness of meditation a part of your life, then you must meditate in daily life continuously, you must remain inwardly in meditation no matter what you do outwardly.
