4 Things Your Friends Won’t Tell You About Meditation

by King Sidharth

in The Basics

Yes there are things freinds don’ talk about and even make fun of! But after reading this post, you will think differently.

You are already doing it.

Believe it or not, you are. Meditation is not sitting in a corner and closing your eyes and breathing. Meditation is when you are happy, full of joy, when you experience time passing by, when nothing else is needed. That what we experience when we are petting our cats (pets), when we are hugging a friend, when we are observing nature, when our minds go blank and empty when gazing at wonders of nature (read: Niagara Falls etc.) is meditation. All we try to do is recreate that experience without any outer help.
Way Cool!

Meditation is Way Cool

I know our dear friends comment when we use the word ‘meditation’. Most of them go like, ‘What the…? Are you gone mad? It sux!’ and they are not wrong in doing that. What else can they think of sitting in silence? Until they try it, they won’t know it’s as exciting as listening to your favourite band live! Also we have more confidence, makes you a charming personality and what not? So isn’t that cool.

Meditation is Powerful

It is indeed very powerful; I cannot explain how powerful it is in words –so try it yourself. And yes it makes you powerful over your mind and circumstances. You just won’t loose your temper next time on some stupid thing or a rude comment. You be more calm and at peace. And from peace comes power; not from war. Mahatma Gandhi practiced meditation in form of Satsang, and whole nation followed him to independence, now that’s power.

Meditation is rich, bloody rich!

Yes, because meditation raises our conscious to the level when we come to knowingness of having all, having abundance. And from that knowingness, the law of attraction brings more of abundance and a more of abundance. When you know you have it all, it comes.

When we stop talking about what we need, more of that what we want comes. – Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

Talk to your friends

So I proved to be a good friend didn’t I? I don’t blame your friends, they didn’t tell you about this coz they didn’t know. But now you know, so be a good friend and talk to your friends or take the easier way: share the link to this article on twitter, facebook etc:

Excellent point Sid. “When your mind goes blank…” Exactly! Meditation is enjoying the fullness of each moment without judgement. No deep thinking, no intellectualizing. You are simply present. No critiquing, no good or bad, no reactions. Just you and the universe in harmony.

Yea, I read too many books shouting 'put your mind into meditation' when the truth is, there is no mind in meditation. Enjoy the weekend!
