Meditation is a unique and different experience. Every meditative experience partakes of a deeply personal and individual spiritual adventure. It is an odyssey into the realm of one’s inner and mysterious beingness. Everywhere we take turn, we are being limited. We are lost in our “external trips.” This external trip involves the collection of things, being the wealthiest and the best, but we remain too poor from within. We have forgotten lost the inner contact. We have forgotten to be just “BE” , we have forgotten to be “TOTAL”. Whatever we do is just an action and not wholehearted involvement. Our thoughts, future plans are important, but the race we are in for the future we miss the present and we cling to the past which do not allow the present to be enjoyed full heartedly by us.

Situation and surroundings makes us dead man with suppressed emotions, we go to bed with loads of thoughts and things, we have no way to empty it all and thus creating an imbalance in our mind and body. The body is a vehicle and we need to respect it because it carries what is essential.

Meditation helps to relax our senses, create internal energy or life force, and develop compassion, love, generosity and forgiveness. You can meditate anywhere and at any time, allowing yourself to access a sense of tranquility and peace no matter what’s going on around you. Meditation helps to discover our true self, being more present in the moment, aware 24/7 and being total. It connects you to your inner-self, and suddenly, all meaninglessness disappears.

One may need some techniques to experience meditation, which would help to sharpen our awareness. Meditation cannot be taught like a lesson, if a teacher teaches you he is not doing any justice.
