Meditate Your Way To Health Wealth And Happiness

Ever thought you would like to step off the highway of life for
a few moments and enjoy life in the peace of your own mind Try
a few moments of concentration meditation Sit in a comfortable
pose Relax all the muscles of the body There should not be any
muscular, emotional, nervous or mental strain Still the mind
Silence the bubbling thoughts Calm the emotions Put a brake on
the thought-process Do not pay any attention to the intruding
thoughts Give the suggestion to the mind: “I do not care to
listen to any intruding thoughts” In other words, be
indifferent The intruding thoughts will slowly quit the mental
thoughts They will not cause you any trouble This is the
secret of mental discipline Improvement in concentration will
be visible the more you practice Do not be discouraged Do it
regularly
Keep yourself in a positive state of mind When you wish to
concentrate on a piece of work to be done with care, you can use
all your will and imagination If you find it difficult to
concentrate on the heart, on the tip of the nose, on the space
between the eyebrows, or on the crown of the head, you can
select any external object for the purpose You can, for
instance, concentrate on the blue sky, the light of the sun, the
all-pervading air, ether, sun, moon, stars If you experience
any headache or pain in the skull or any part of the body due to
the strain of concentration on a particular place or object,
shift the centre of concentration or change the object
The space between the eyebrows is said to be the seat of the
mind in the waking state You can easily control the mind, if
you concentrate on this region Light is seen during
concentration on this region very quickly Those who want to
meditate on the macrocosm and who wants to help the world should
select this region for concentration It is said that those who
concentrate on the heart gets immense happiness Those who want
to get something for themselves should concentrate on the heart
A scientist concentrates on their mind and invents many things
Through concentration a person opens the layers of the gross
mind and penetrates deeply into higher regions of the mind and
gets deeper knowledge Concentrate all your energies into one
focus and throws them upon the materials you are analysing and
so finds out their secrets When there is faith, the mind can be
easily concentrated on the subject to be understood; and then
the understanding quickly follows As mind evolves, you come
into conscious relation with the mental currents, with the minds
of others near and distant, living and dead Those who have
learnt to focus the mind will get the whole nature under his
control
Napoleon was said to have had remarkable power of concentration
It is said that he had full control over his thoughts He could
draw one thought from a pigeon hole of his brain, dwell on that
single thought as long as he liked and then shove that thought
back into that pigeon-hole
Draw from the wealth within your thoughts and you will achieve
things you never thought possible Visualize a richer future for
yourself Give those thoughts substance Where would you live?
What would your house be like? What car would you drive? What
sorts of hobbies and fun things would you pursue? See, feel,
touch, smell and breath life into your vision and anything is
possible
