Yoga and Meditation - Part III
from: MerryWhile, meditation can take the consciousness beyond conscious,
sub conscious and unconscious states to super consciousness, the
question is how can one achieve that?
It can be achieved through meditation and the first step in the
process is to select an object to concentrate on, with the help
of your eyes, nose, ears, mouth and touch, as follows: * Eyes -
fix your gaze upon the selected object, * Mouth - recite a
mantra or sloka aloud, * Ears - listen to the mantra, as you say
it, or put on an audiotape of the mantra. * Furthermore, empty
the mind of all thoughts, and do not think of anything else,
only concentrate on the selected object as part of the mediation
process.
You can select any object to concentrate upon, the only
requirement being that it must impart tranquillity and serenity
to the mind. For instance, you may select a picture of a
favourite deity and while concentrating on it, recite or listen
to a mantra dedicated to that particular deity. However, to
achieve success, one must ensure that the mind is only filled
with thoughts of the deity and nothing else.
Mediation can be done anywhere from 5-10 minutes or more, but
when other thoughts filter through, then it is time to end the
session. Although, meditation is a fundamental stage, a lot of
practice is required before one can gain absolute control over
one's mind.
There are a number of yoga books on meditation and spirituality,
audiotapes and online books, as well that can give more insight
on how to meditate, including the benefits derived from
practicing it on a daily basis. Equip yourself with some
necessary yoga accessories, such as, a yoga mat, yoga block or
yoga strap for a fulfilling experience. With a wide variety of
yoga accessories to choose from online, go ahead and make a fine
selection from a large range of yoga mats, yoga blocks and yoga
straps. Yoga is a powerful tool in the hands of those who master
this ancient exercise art form from India!
