Hello Everyone ! Meditation … the word originated form Latin, “meditari” which means concentrate. Concentration means focus and we need to focus not only when meditating but at every moment. Meditation in social media terms can be termed as “Sending a friend request to oneself” or “Spending time with yourself”.
Now, in the current world post Pandemic, we do have a lot of changes in our lives. Earlier in the fast life when we were running relentlessly, most of us used to try and get some time for our selves but this major event has made us realize that the entire world needed that healing or time to pull the entire planet together and amend some positive changes.
Mediation as a practice needs to be aligned as a lifestyle rather than something optional. The best way to do that would be to implement this from very early on for every child in their school curriculum. If this becomes a lifestyle then it will definitely be something like, learning a new life skill for getting equipped as an adult.
Meditation helps the mind be calm and prepare us to handle any situation in life with a steady thought process. We generally equate meditating to a calm and silent surrounding, so that we can focus but the highest level of mediation that one can achieve is that even in the middle of the highest degree of commotion, a person mediating or focusing should not even hear or be distracted by 1% of what is happening in the surroundings. That is the level of concentration we need to achieve and align with but not easy to achieve.
Ideally, we as the most evolved race in the entire world, still need a specific place or surrounding for concentrating or meditating, we still haven’t been able to reach that level of evolution so as to concentrate anywhere we are. So if you are starting to practice meditation and need a silent ambience, do it in a place you are most comfortable with and has very less noise and if possible, create an aroma around that helps concentrate. Till you are able to achieve a level of concentrating anywhere, we could start this.
Hopefully mediation helps us to bring the chaos around and inside us, to an organized state for a much better sustainability of the entire world.
