What is Meditation

What is Meditation

 

Meditation has become an excepted practice but it hasn't been always like that..

I think it helped when the Beatles went to India to study Transcendental Meditation. Meditation became an instant hit.

 

Most forms of Meditation are easy to learn, and like everything, practice will make you better. It takes up only a little bit of time and offers infinitely more than watching television :-)

There are many different meditation techniques available, I think using a mantra, or a concentration technique or some visualisation is more suitable for the beginner than immersing yourself in total thoughlessness.The mind is concentrated on "a technique" and when thoughts intrude, gently brought back to it.

The first result is often experienced within the first few days, stress and former annoyances seem to bother you less and you find yourself more relaxed.

Meditation has become more important then ever.

The speed with which we live our life, in our computer generated times is too much for our systems, we haven't really adapted to all those new technologies we are using. The continual stimulation, the impact of even an ordinary day-to-day life in today's frantic world gradually escalates our optimum arousal level and results in constant stress just by living. One of the effects of meditation is to lower the arousal level.

 

How to start with Meditation.

I generally advice to go to a meditation group, direct instruction work always best.
