MIND WITHOUT AGITATION IS MEDITATION...
MIND IN THE PRESENT MOMENT IS MEDITATION...
MIND WHICH BECOMES NO MIND IS MEDITATION...
MIND THAT HAS NO HESITATION, NO ANTICIPATION IS MEDITATION...
A MIND THAT HAS COME BACK HOME TO THE SOURCES IS MEDITATION...
THE REST IN MEDITATION IS DEEPER THAN THE DEEPEST SLEEP THAT YOU CAN EVER HAVE....

As a martial artist we strive for mushin - no mind and yes it is a fine state of being.

MELTING PROCESS OF MIND WITH THE HELP OF MIND IS MEDITATION.

IN CASE OF CONE ICE, THE CONE IS USED TO HOLD ICECREAM. FINALLY WE EAT THE CONE ITSELF.

LIKE THAT DURING THE INITIAL STAGE OF MEDITATION WE WILL USE THE MIND BUT AT LATER FINAL STAGE THE MIND ITSELF WILL GET DIS APPEARED AND MELT INTO HIGHER CONSCIENCE

What  is  Meditation?

     Meditation Means Awareness.  An ordinary person may consider meditation as a worship or prayer. But it is not so. Meditation means awareness. Whatever you do with awareness is meditation. "Watching your breath" is meditation; listening to the birds is meditation. As long as these activities are free from any other distraction to the mind, it is effective meditation.

     Meditation is not a technique but a way of life. Meditation means 'a cessation of the thought process' . It describes a state of consciousness, when the mind is free of scattered thoughts and various patterns . The observer (one who is doing meditation) realizes that all the activity of the mind is reduced to one.

Here worship or prayer can turn into mediatation if it is done with full awareness.

If the prayer or worship is done without any expectation and with great love towards god, then we will be fully aware and will be in that moment 100%.. Then we will be auomatically into the meditative state
