Meet your self.
"Meditation gives you
what nothing else can give you
it introduces you to yourself."
_Swami Rama_
The mind in Meditation. We all know that whenever we become over-involved with the flow of other experiences our inner balance is disturbed. Our natural serenity is replaced by attachments and agitation. On the other hand, when our inner life is balanced the forces of attachment are weakened, the mind becomes calm, and there is clear field into which the light and energy of the self can radiate. We are composed and naturally joyful.
When we can learn to make our mind still we will find our own true self shining beneath the disturbance.
At the heart of Meditation practice are two inseparable skills. The first is concentration, the ability to rest your attention on focus. The other is mindfulness, the ability to observe your personality with compassionate detachment. These two work together to create a clear and one-pointed mind.
Meditation requires preparation.We not simply sit down and enter the deepest state. Because physical discomfort and mental chatter are intertwined, the first state in calming the mind is to stabilize and quiet the body, for that we have to learn to find a stable and comfortable sitting pose.
