Meditation – An Easy Technique For Self Transformation (Part 1)

We often think and hear from others when we discuss about meditation that practicing it is not so easy and it should be practiced when one becomes old and free from worldly duties. Also, some people feel that meditation makes you quieter and you move away from people in relationships. There are also some people who feel meditation cuts away your worldly time and you will find it difficult to finish all your tasks for the day either at home or in your workplace or in any other activity you give your time to regularly. Let’s see in this message the truth about these limitations which we think meditation will bring in our lives –

Meditation Is Easy And Can Be Practiced By Anyone

Meditation as taught by the Brahma Kumaris is a very simple method of self realization in which we don’t use any force to quieten the mind, which can be tiring and also unnatural and it cannot be practiced successfully for too long. Also, such a method of forced stillness cannot be used in the middle of actions when we are busy in the day and thoughts are many in the mind. Instead, in meditation we create a few positive thoughts based on a spiritual realization of different virtues like peace, joy, love, bliss, purity, power and wisdom and qualities and inner strengths like contentment, determination, sweetness, patience, humility, tolerance, detachment, etc. which are based on these virtues. Creating these thoughts is easy and what thoughts to create is taught in the spiritual wisdom of the Brahma Kumaris. When we create these positive thoughts, our state of mind changes and our negative thoughts stop on their own without any effort. This is an easy method for the concentration of the mind, and anyone can practice it easily.
