The definition of meditation in the Indian scriptures is:
DHYAANAM NIRVISHYAM MANAH
Meaning: Meditation is a mind free from all distraction and disturbance.
Meditation is a mind with no subject, no thoughts.
Why do we need meditation?
People who don't have a meditative mind don't think, they only have thoughts.
Meditation is a training tool for the mind to live consciously.
The first thing to understand is that you are not your thoughts. But mind is the tool through which you perceive the world, and if the mind is not developed your worldview might be distorted or unclear.
Meditation first develops "witnessing": you become aware of yourself, your thoughts, your response...attention turns inwards.
Meditation slows down the speed of your thoughts and helps you to declutter your mind and organize your ideas. First it starts giving you more clarity.
Next step meditation develops is "impulse control", which works like a break, you become stronger than your thoughts. You will learn how not to react, and then you will be able to choose your response consciously.
And finally mastery of meditation: You have processed all the material of your subconscious mind and no thoughts will enter your mind without your permission. Mind is now free and empty. Innocent like a child. You know and understand yourself at all levels.
Understanding your mind helps you to understand everyone's mind.
The Mind is completely developed so now you operate from a higher mind: concentration, detachment and intuition.
In this Online Seminar Sri Swami Purohit will teach you what meditation is, how meditation works, what are all the benefits and how to practice it, from beginner level to advanced. At the end of the seminar he will do a meditation. "If you sit in meditation with a spiritual master, he has the power to move the energy upwards. Energy which moves upwards has no attachment.
