How to meditate

My mother practices meditation daily for atleast 20 minutes. She has a great decision making power just because of it, as she claims. Now she is forcing me to meditate daily for 20 minutes. I can’t make for 20 minutes and I started with 5 minutes. With practice and consistency, I’ll improve.

I sit erect with close eyes. But what is meditation? Here’s the simple definition; thinking nothing! Sounds simple, right? Just try it for 2 minutes. If you can stop your mind from thinking, then you’ll achieved moksha. I can sit for 7-8 minutes. I can’t usually stop my mind wandering and I talk to Mr. Universe to guide me achieve my goals and the girl I love (who rejected me, yet I love her). It’s unbelievable I’m typing such kind of blog.

Once I do that, I rub my palms against each other and place on my face and pull down. And then I open my eyes. It feels fresh. You may feel something else, but it’s worth it. I read somewhere that millionaires meditate to set priorities. Mobile app like Calm can help you to achieve mindfulness.

Here’s song by The Pixels from the movie Fight Club.

With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there’s nothing in it
And you’ll ask yourself Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimmin’
