Walk
in Spirituality Part 5

– Meditation
One thing we need to understand clearly is that if
one wants to realize the self his mind should be free from thoughts (pure)
because it is only when the mind is thought free the intellect searches for the
source within. When the mind is thought free the intellect shines in the light
of the Self within.
Below is a simple process of a Meditation which is
best to follow. Follow below steps for effective results
Step
1 - Pranayama
Spend 15 mins for paranayama starting with 10 mins
for alternate nostril breathing, meaning breath in from left and breathe out
from right, then breathe in from right and breathe out from left. Do this as
slowly as possible and note the inhalation is bit faster than exhalation. After
a week of this pranayama, after inhalation try holding your breathe and exhale.
The ratio of the inhalation: retention: exhalation should be 1:4:2. Hold only
to your capacity and do not over exert.
Next 5 mins do abdominal breathing as follows inhale
with both nostrils 5 -10 sec, retain 10-15 sec and exhalation 5-10 secs. While
inhaling your stomach (abdominal) should expand and contract while exhaling.
Then sit in a comfortable position with spine erect
concentrate on your ajna chakra and chant the mantra that is initiated for 20
mins. Later after few days of practice after mantra chanting concentrate on
ajna chakra and just observe what is happening there slowly you will lose your consciousness.
