Are you just after physical
relaxation, a little inner peace, or do you want to gain real peace of
mind? Maybe your aim is the attainment of enlightenment.
There are techniques that instruct you to concentrate on the tip of
your nose, on your breathing or on your movements. Others tell you to
think on a sentence, quote or prayer, while other methods tell you to
repeat a mantra. In all of these methods you are actually teaching the
mind to stick to one object, action or thought. You are training it to
become one-pointed.
The main theme of all of them is the act of
focusing the mind on one single subject, in other words concentration.
The mind is usually restless. By subduing its waves, it becomes
quiet. When the mind is quiet the body is quiet too.
Meditation is not
different from any other method of training. Yet, Meditation cannot be measured
in terms of success. You
naturally meditate whenever you
begin focusing on anything, even
daydreaming is a form of meditation.
Meditating
is The Act of deliberately Focusing
on What you desire, and allow that
Focus to create the environment
to achieve your objective and Goals.
Meditation automatically produces physical and mental calmness and enhance the power
of concentration power, the memory, intuition, inner strength and peace
of mind. It might also lead to spiritual enlightenment.
The ultimate goal of meditation is to reach beyond the mind and live
in the world of pure spirit. This may not be the goal of the majority
of those just start to meditate.
For most people, the main purpose is
the reduction of physical and mental stress and the gain of some peace
of mind.
