An Opportunity To Aware

Meditation is not a punishment don't take stress, just feel free, for a better experience you should have to leave all ideas even all idea also an idea but to be clean internally, virtually only this is the path. To understand exactly I am giving here a para of a Great personality...

 When I say "become water" I mean become a flow; don't remain stagnant. Move, and move like water. Lao Tzu says: The way of the Tao is a watercourse way. It moves like water. What is the movement of water? or of a river? The movement has a few beautiful things about it. One, it always moves towards the depth, it always searches for the lowest ground. It is non-ambitious; it never hankers to be the first, it wants to be the last. Remember, Jesus says: Those who are the last here will be the first in my kingdom of God. He is talking about the watercourse way of Tao--not mentioning it, but talking about it. Be the last, be non-ambitious. Ambition means going uphill. Water goes down, it searches for the lowest ground, it wants to be a nonentity. It does not want to declare itself unique, exceptional, extraordinary. It has no ego idea.

Your all activity of the whole day should be an opportunity to aware. If you are taking water take it consciously as you have no life after taking water. If you are eating close your eyes at the point of chewing something and realize the taste and you will find very clearly that taste is increased in the food you will feel yourself more energetic, calm, refresh and satisfied after a single work which have done by you consciously.

Vipassana - The Final Destination

which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It means just see what ever going on in your surrounding calmly, be in present or to keep realization what is happening. It may be any kind of work like listening music, hearing voices of your atmosphere.Vipassana is one of the greatest meditations, but only in the hands of a master. In the hands of a technician it is the greatest danger. Either the man can become enlightened or the man can become mad; both possibilities are there, it all depends under whose guidance it is being done.

And if somebody is doing Vipassana for ten hours, almost the whole day, the sanity will give way. And then NO will not come to help, because he will not even be able to understand that this has happened because of Vipassana. And you cannot sue him in the court, because even the law does not understand that Vipassana can create madness in people.

My whole effort here is to keep you as non-serious as possible, for the simple reason that meditation, all kinds of meditation, can make you too serious and that seriousness will create a spiritual disease and nothing else.

Unless a meditation brings you more laughter, more joy, more playfulness, avoid it. It is not for you.

Clean Your Being

Meditation is nothing but trying to clean your being, trying to become fresh and young, trying to become more alive and more alert. If you are afraid of meditation it means you are afraid of life, you are afraid of awareness, and the resistance comes because you know that if you move into meditation, something is bound to happen. If you are not resisting at all, it may be because you don't take meditation very seriously, you don't take meditation very sincerely. Then you can play around – what is there to be afraid of?"
   Start being aware with day-to-day, routine actions, and while you are doing your routine actions, remain relaxed.

“There is no need to be tense. When you are washing your floor, what is the need to be tense? Or when you are cooking the food, what is the need to be tense? There is not a single time in life that requires your tension. It is just your unawareness and your impatience.

“I have not found anything — and I have lived in all kind of ways, with all kinds of people. I have always been puzzled: why are they tense? It seems tension has nothing to do with anything outside you, it has something to do within you. Outside you always find an excuse only because it looks so idiotic to be tense without any reason. Just to rationalize, you find some reason outside yourself to explain why you are tense.

How To Meditate ?

•  If you want to live a more fulfilled life, first you will want to know your potential, who you really are. Meditation is the route to that knowing. It is the methodology of the science of awareness.
  Be peaceful, hear whatever you are hearing, see what you are seeing, do whatever you are doing but with awareness.

"Calmness is the ideal state in which we should receive all life's experiences,"Meditation may involve generating an emotional state for the purpose of analyzing that state—such as anger, hatred, etc.—or cultivating a particular mental response to various phenomena, such as compassion. The term "meditation" can refer to the state itself, as well as to practices or techniques employed to cultivate the state. Meditation may also involve repeating a mantra and closing the eyes. The mantra is chosen based on its suitability to the individual meditator. Meditation has a calming effect and directs awareness inward until pure awareness is achieved, described as "being awake inside without being aware of anything except awareness itself.In brief, there are dozens of specific styles of meditation practice, and many different types of activity commonly referred to as meditative practices.

           Meditation means consciousness and everything whatever you are doing just do but with consciousness as you are working like a child carefully, like you don't have any knowledge just leave it, although you are going anywhere, eating something, in a meeting, here is no matter what you are doing but the matter is how you are doing, If you are doing with Meditation it will surely perfect. Your works define you and your Meditation also. So this is the way by which you can get the key of success in meditation in daily routines.

There are different ways to meditate, and since it’s such a personal practice there are probably more than any of us know about. There are a couple that are usually focused on heavily in scientific research, though. These are focused-attention, or mindful meditation, which is where you focus on one specific thing—it could be your breathing, a sensation in your body or a particular object outside of you. The point of this type of meditation is to focus strongly on one point and continually bring your attention back to that focal point when it wanders.

 

When you will start Meditation you will realize there are thousands of thoughts are coming continuously.

Feel the entire foot, being aware of how it moves as the heel is placed on the ground, and then the movement rolls to the ball of the foot and toes. Notice how it feels as the foot lifts and moves forward. Allow your awareness to move up through every part of the body, noticing the sensations as you walk.

Allow that part of your body to relax. Allow your ankles, belly, shoulders, arms, neck — all of your body — to relax. Let your hips swing loose.

Why Meditation ?

What  are we doing For himself Nothing, if we are not doing Meditation.

Meditation is a way to be a flower, to realize more, to increase your power which is not works in your body but out of body also. so lets see here why meditation is Important to us and why ?

Stress Reduction

Meditation reduces stress better than anything else I know of. Not only does the practice of meditation give you some “down time” to rest physically and mentally, it also has a very direct effect on your entire nervous system by reducing your body’s production of stress related chemicals like cortisol, and increasing the production of mood enhancing chemicals like serotonin.

Improved Health

Meditation will improve your health by strengthening your immune system, reducing your blood pressure and lowering cholesterol levels.

Meditation is often of particular interest to people who are diagnosed with a chronic or potentially life threatening illness. People with serious medical conditions like cancer will sometimes turn to meditation as a means to enhance the process of healing and recovery. While meditation should never be used as a substitute for proper medical care, in some cases it can lead to medical breakthroughs and healing even when traditional medical treatments have been unsuccessful.

Of course, you do not have to be terminally ill to benefit from the healing effects of meditation! Even if you have just come down with a case of the flu, meditation will enhance the function of your immune system and help to you to rest more deeply, leading to a speedier recovery. Meditation also happens to be a wonderful way to alleviate headaches and to prevent them from recurring.

Improved Sleep

Sleep is a totally natural human function, and it’s something we need every day. But if you have a busy mind or if you are stressed then you may find that your sleep is not as restorative as it should be. Meditation dramatically improves the quality of your sleep and it is one of the most powerful natural treatments for insomnia. A great reason to meditate.

Sleep Music


Slowed Aging

Studies into the effects of meditation have shown that the regular practice of meditation can slow the aging process. The biological age of long term meditators is generally less than those of people who have never meditated. It is believed that the physiological cause of this is due to the fact that meditation helps to reduce the body’s production of free radicals. Free radicals are organic molecules that are responsible for aging, tissue damage, and possibly some diseases.

Emotional Stability & Positive Thinking

Meditation is a very powerful natural prescription for people who suffer from anxiety and/or depression, and it is also taught to people who have difficulty controlling their anger. However, you do not need to have a serious psychological condition for meditation to be of benefit to you! Every-day people who meditate generally enjoy a lot more...

Happiness!

People who meditate are less stressed, healthier, they sleep better, and they have a more positive outlook on life. Simply put, meditation makes you a happier person!
 
Success and Quality of Life

Think about this for just a moment...

    Everything you achieve in life is the result of your actions.
    The actions you choose to take are the result of your decisions.
    The decisions you make are the result of your thinking processes.
    Your thinking processes are completely dependent on the quality of your mind.

If you really dwell on this realization you will begin to see how the entire course of your life is affected by the quality of the thoughts that you permit to circulate in your mind. As I mention in this article on the benefits of meditation, sometimes the difference between a great success and a monumental disaster in life is a seemingly insignificant little moment in which you give birth to a thought, and make a decision. It happens in that moment when you decide to turn left instead of right...in that moment where you choose between a peaceful response to a situation, or an angry one...in that moment when you notice the attractive smile of the person across the room, or the moment when you miss that smile, that chance meeting, that new love. All of life is filled with these “opportunities to choose”. Some are more significant than others, but all of them add up to the path that you will one day call “my life story”.

Meditation will help you to make wiser, more peaceful choices during everyday moments. This in turn leads to a life that contains more positive opportunities and fewer problems. Of all the reasons to meditate, this one is perhaps the least obvious, but it is also one of the most significant.

Who Uses Meditation? Why Meditate?

Now that I have described some of the main reasons to meditate, let us now explore some specific examples of how people use meditation to improve their lives.

Athletes
Did you know that most top athletes practice some form of meditation and/or visualization? Not only does the practice of meditation help athletes to concentrate on achieving their goals, meditation also help them to achieve peak physical condition and to accelerate healing and physical recovery after exercise.

Professionals
Professionals often rely on meditation to help them become clear on how to manage complex situations or to develop a strategic direction for their business. When intensive, multi-faceted thinking is required, meditation can really help you to open your mind to new possibilities and to improve your ability to see the “big picture”.

Artists
Artists of all types use meditation to open their minds to “creative flow”. After all, where do new ideas and creative inspirations come from? They come from the mind. If your mind is full of noise, if you are stressed and confused, then how can you expect to access the “creative genius within?”

Spiritual People
It is common for spiritual people to practice meditation. Meditation has been used for thousands of years as a way to attain a level of awareness that is beyond the limitations of the everyday thinking mind, to find freedom, and to connect with the spiritual awareness within.

As you can see, there are many reasons to meditate. But even if you are not an artist, or a professional, or an athlete, and even if you are already an intelligent, healthy person who has no interest in spirituality, meditation can still dramatically enhance your quality of life. I urge you to try meditation, if for no other reason than the fact that it makes you feel so good!
