Meditation

Meditation is the art of staying in this present moment. A sleepy person either lives in the past moment or is dreaming about the future life. But a meditator stays in this present moment and is alert about his thoughts and actions . Concentration exercises makes the mind stronger. Meditation does not make the mind strong but it takes us beyond the mind. Meditation is all about dis-identifying with the mind. Meditation is to be alert about our thoughts and witnessing our desires rather than indulging in them . Passive witnessing of thoughts and desires transforms them. Witnessing means to watch the thoughts with out interpreting, interfering or analyzing them. Witnessing is the art of just watching the thoughts coming and going.
