What is Meditation?
Meditation is
to sharpen your intuitive ability. There are facts we perceive with our
senses and intellect. But there are some things we understand because our heart
says so.
There
is this feeling in the pit of our stomach which helps us comprehend thing that
we cannot perceive through our senses or through rational reasoning. And that
is your intuitive ability.
But, contrary to all rules of success, meditation
neither requires hard work. Nor does it ask for smart work. In short meditation is ‘no
work’… and total relaxation. Meditation is not concentration. It is
de-concentration. It is not about focusing the power of your thoughts on one
thing but about becoming thoughtless.
It is an effortless transition from being
something to merging with nothing, with the infinite and recognizing yourself
as an inseparable part of the whole cosmos.
But most importantly meditation doesn’t have a religion and can be practiced by
a Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Zoroastrian, Hindus and many others alike.
There are benefits galore once you get into a
regular habit of meditating. It releases stressful impressions from your mind
that heals us emotionally, pumping us with enthusiasm to take on life’s
challenges and convert them to opportunities.
