About Meditation

Meditation means a continuous dehypnotising from identification with body , mind , name and form .It must start in everyday life .If you cannot be detached from the day to day activities , it will be difficult to enter into meditation .If there is continuous identification with your actions , then those same activities will go on even when the body is sitting still .The eyes may be closed , hands-clasped and feet crossed , but the mind will not be checked .There remains the identification with the mental play .Activity or inactivity makes no difference .The mind plays its part in all directions .
