Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Q: What should we meditate on? M: Who is the meditator? Ask that question first. Remain as the meditator, then there is no need to meditate. It is the sense of doership that is the impediment to dhyana. Q: What is to be meditated on? M: Anything you prefer, but you should stick to one thing. Contemplation involves fighting. As soon as you begin meditation other thoughts will crowd in, gather force and try to sink the single thought. The latter must gain strength by repeated practice. This battle always takes place in meditation. Peace of mind is brought about by contemplation and through the absence of varying thoughts. Once dhyana is well-established it cannot be given up, but will go on automatically even when you are engaged in work, play or even sleep. It must become so deep-rooted that it is natural. Dhyana: Successful meditation. Meditation through deliberate mental effort. Repetition of a mantra or name of God with devotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
