Meditation
Meditation itself can change your life. Meditation makes a higher mentality. This is most helpful to remain calm and stress free. As a result of regular practice of meditation you will acquire a deep concentration. Your personality will grow automatically unknowingly with the development of analytical power, prudence, judgement, self-dignity and self-confidence. Meditation is the best way for easy self-development and self-improvement. Researchers have proved that meditation can strengthen immunity and can even slow down the bad effect of incurable diseases.
Meditation is one type of mental exercises which controls the mind and focuses on a particular subject. Meditation can be practised twice a day. The best time for practising meditation is early morning and early evening. These are the transcendental state of the day when the environment becomes calm and also the human body and mind tends to become calm at these moments.
Steps
First sit in a posture that keeps your backbone steady and you feel easy. Sit in a cross-legged posture and keep your hands either on the knees or in the lap.
Then close your eyes and pray for the well being of the universe.
"Let all beings be happy; let all beings be peaceful; let all beings be blissful." The more you repeat this prayer mentally the better you will feel yourself.
Now follow your breath. The regular breathing harmonises the system. When you practise the regular breathing for some time, your mind will become calm.
Then focus on your mind and just see what is happening there. Do not try to obstruct them. Just let them flow. After a while concentrate on the forehead and try to see the light. You can imagine that the light is filling your complete body and your feeling easy and peaceful.
During meditation imagine that you are sitting on a lotus and its radition is filling your heart and body and purifying you. This will make a compassionate heart and great personality in you.
During meditation you can focus on external and internal part. But focusing on internal part is easy as it is physical. Imagination is done according to purpose. Actually you will gain the nature of what you meditate. There are so many types of meditation. For example stress free, relaxation, creative meditation etc.
When you will be accustomed to meditation you will feel so comfortable, relaxing and useful that you will be addicted to it. If you miss it one day you will remain unsatisfied. After meditating several days you may think that meditation is not so useful and then if you stop the practice you will realise the difference during the days of the practice of the meditation. During the days of practice you could easily concentrate on a work; you could feel spiritful; your mind would be light, your mind would not scatter. I think meditation is so beneficial that you will realise if you practise. Then you will recommend it to everyone.
Sri Ramkrishna on Meditation
"If you meditate on an ideal you will acquire it's nature. If you think of God day and night, you will acquire the nature of God."
The Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna : (pp. 657)
