Meditation is like planting a seed

An article by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar on the nature of meditation...

Quote:

We tend to let go of pleasant emotions and cling to unpleasant ones. Ninety-nine per cent of the world does this. But when the consciousness becomes free and cultured with meditation, the tendency of holding on to negative emotions simply disappears. We start living in the moment and are able to let go of the past.

I thought it was an excellent article, thanks for sharing Ajay :smile: I particularly liked this bit:

Quote:

Keep in mind three laws while meditating - I am nothing (akinchan), I need nothing (achah) and I am going to do nothing (aprayatna). If you have these three qualities, you will be able to meditate.

Thanks for highlighting that saying of Sri Sri, A Human Being. :smile:

I agree that there is a lot of wisdom in it and requires further contemplation on it. It is a sort of koan that fosters meditation.
