Be A Meditator- When my thoughts spill over

During meditation, many thoughts may appear in the form of worldly objects or emotions like good food, money, a car, music, a mobile phone, love and my love for my pet. These emotions sometimes reach a point at which they can no longer be controlled or contained. Years of frustration may even spill over into the form of violence. At such a juncture, meditation comes to our rescue. It calms us down and develops greater understanding. Keep Meditating

Be A Meditator-Character formation is the first outcome of meditation

When I started meditating. I was just meditating every day, without thinking about its outcome. One day, my brother told me that I have become calm and more patient. Was I impatient? I asked myself. I did feel that I was less impulsive. Veteran meditators say character formation is the first outcome of meditation. Characters like becoming more aware of the family's requirements. Care for the poor and needy. A meditator works with energy and values time. Also one can become much more thoughtful, contemplative, imaginative, and calm. Keep Meditating

Be A Meditator- Continue meditating

Do I need a Guru to guide me in meditation? This question often bewilders many of us. According to Swami Kriyananda. " If you are looking for greater happiness, peace, less stress and worry. You do not need a guru, you will still benefit from meditation." Meditation is a simple practice available to all. One technique is Ana-Pana-Sati, inhale your breath, exhale your breath and be one with it. But if we are in the wilderness, like the one shown in the infographic, we will need a guide if we want to find our way home. Taking help from someone who has walked the path before us is both sensible and efficient. Continue to meditate, wherever you are. A master will appear at the right time. Keep meditating

Sometimes, when we are with ourselves, we are either in the reveries of the past or in dreams of the future. In case of the past, we might be taking into account of what we went through.

The aroma of the cake is everywhere in the room. When we eat it, it satiates our hunger and gives us pleasure. Being in the present moment fills us with the aroma of meditation. Keep Meditating

For 50 years, he took a barren piece of land to bring it back to life. Imagine if we did that with our own consciousness? Keep Meditating

Turning Darkness into Light

The quote is taken from a beautiful poem by Jane Roberts. The process of waking up, of gaining awareness of consciousness, automatically leads to a faster diminishing of negative thoughts. We start to see the consequences of our thoughts with greater clarity once we begin meditation. With more balanced, wholesome thoughts, we naturally create better lives for ourselves.

Meditation! Meditation! Meditation! What is this meditation? I don't have time for meditation. I have to rush to my college, school or workplace. There are so many domestic chores remaining. We may come across such arguments. Such thoughts communicate that we need to calm our minds and bodies.
Meditation can calm our minds and encourage feelings of acceptance and harmony, like saying "Yes, I have to do these things". By staying in the moment, the mental stress levels can be reduced dramatically. If I am staying in a calm and relaxed body, all the work will go on without stress. Keep meditating

Be A Meditator--Keep Meditating Mind Will Go Silent Some Day

A conversation between self and mind. With most people, thoughts are crossing their minds all the time. We generally say let the thoughts come, they will go like a cloud. Do not get involved with it and start finding solutions during meditation.
But here is a meditator, whose mind is telling him that it will not be silent until his last breath.
The meditator says how you will come to know which is your last breath. The mind has no answer to it, and it goes silent. Do you have an answer to this question? Mind going silent is a difficult stage to achieve.

Mindfulness of words, can be supported by a good vocabulary

Mindfulness of words

Harsh words can destroy relationships. In the heat of the moment, when our emotions are intense, we can say things that can permanently damage relationships. Even if we try sincerely to repair, the damage may not heal.

Harshness becomes a resort for us when we want to achieve an objective but feel unsafe or taken advantage of or feel that we have been treated unjustly. Our emotions in such situations often accumulate and these emotions are carried in our words.

With meditation and practicing awareness, we gradually relive these experiences and as the emotions are released (over many years), we develop a more neutral perspective and do not need harsh words to express ourselves or achieve our objective.

Though the healing of our consciousness is the way to make our speech permanently better, but until then, we can also take the middle path and learn better words for common situations.
