How to Meditate – By Swami Venkatesananda – Part-5

[Ravishankar.G]

Dear all,

Good morning to all of u and have a divine blessed day ahead…..

Meditation tips Contd....

14. Get up slowly. Do not immediately run away. Take a few minutes before
you leave the meditation room. Your mind and your nerves were extremely
calm during this practice and if you suddenly jump out of that mood and
rush into company, you might injure the nerves. This is very important.

15. You can practise this at other times, too—several times a day. Do not
sit for this practice within two hours after a meal. Do not wear tight
clothing.

16. Do not eat anything for half an hour after this practice. And do not take bath immediately either.

17. If you wish to do a few rounds of pranayama, you may do so before you start this meditation practice or soon after step 2 above.

If the mind wanders open your eyes, gaze at the picture and start all over again from step 5 above.

Japa (repetition of a mantra) itself will lead to meditation. The lord's
grace will lead you to meditation and samadhi.(Super consciousness
state)

If evil thoughts enter the mind, do not pay any attention to them. Let them depart, as uninvited guests will if totally ignored!
Go on with your japa, visualising the lord in the heart. If the mind
wanders, resort to mental worship; or, open your eyes again and gaze at
the image.
