Meditation means ‘Silencing the Mind’.
It is about ‘Emptying the Mind’ of all thoughts, wanted or unwanted..!
Meditation means being aware of the present and of oneself at every moment.
The ancient practice of quietening and calming the “thinking” mind is Meditation.Meditation is a state. Not a process.It is a state of being in touch with one’s own divinity.


Meditation on Breath trains us to be aware of the present moment with each inhale and exhale of our breath. Everyone can experience the benefits of Meditation irrespective of whether they have attempted it before or not. It teaches us to “Watch the Breath” with full awareness. Daily meditation energizes us through the ‘Prana’ or Life force that we are inhaling. We notice the melting away of mental and emotional toxins, thus enabling us to tap into higher levels of energy fields and consciousness. Internally, as a man begins this practice, he experiences changes such as greater focus, creativity, self-awareness and a peaceful and calm frame of mind and ultimately leading to the Awakening.
