A definition accepted in most dictionaries for meditation is, a continuous and profound contemplation or musing on a subject or series of subjects of deep or abstruse nature. This is really reflection. Meditation generally involves where one consciously discounts wandering thoughts and fantasies, and calming and focusing the mind while controlling the breathing and sensory awareness.
Meditation is easy to do and can give you an instant feeling of calmness and relaxation. This mediation technique is simple and very effective and only takes you a few minutes to learn and will help you relax from the stresses of everyday life. Meditation can provide you with inner strength and a much happier life.
There is one meditation anyone can do, and by doing it, one's life force itself comes under control; ones senses turn off, and the mind becomes quiet. Then the peace and realization that comes from true meditation comes to the practitioner.
What is the name of this meditation, and how is it done? Even spoken over and over, the syllables merge…so one is saying Sohamsoham…I am He, He am I…it is a prayer and a meditation mantra, which is a spiritually charged word or a series of words used in a meditation theme.
Sit up straight with your spine in a line…do not slouch. You must be comfortable, so sit on a chair or on the floor with a soft mat or carpet underneath you. When you feel completely relaxed, command your mind to be silent, your emotions to be still, keeping your body as relaxed as possible. As you do this meditation, actually imagine the air entering your nose and traveling all the way down into your lungs.
As you exhale, you can imagine the air traveling out of the lungs, up to the nose and out of your body. This is one Ham. Beginners in this meditation usually silently say the word so with each inhalation and the word Ham with each exhalation. Continue in this way, as long as you are comfortable, but no less than 5 minutes, and no longer than 20 minutes until the meditation feels natural to go longer.
This mediation technique is simple and very effective and only takes a few minutes to learn and will help you relax away the stresses of everyday life. One feels close to ones intuition, and one feels as if the world of material things are less important due to its overbearing insignificance when compared to the bliss one feels in meditation. Learn as much as you can about meditation so you too can start feeling better.
