The first meditation tip is to
not eat or drink anything besides water for at least an hour and a half prior
to meditation. The reason for this is for one, the body will be busy digesting
your food making it much harder for it to relax. Second, because meditation is
awakening the subtle energy (also known as Kundalini Shakti or Chi), and for
this to happen, you want to keep your physical body as light and clear as
possible.
The second meditation tip is
to practice a breathing technique for a few minutes just before you meditate.
It can be as simply as breathing in and out as fast as you can through your
nose for 100 breaths, breathing shallow breaths in and out of your chest. Or
you can breathe deeply counting to four on the inhale, hold the breath while
counting to 4 and exhaling counting to eight.
Purifying the breath through
prana exercises like this is very important if you want to go deep in
meditation and attain self realization. So using a prana-breathing technique
like this can awaken you into a deep meditation very quickly. Do either of these
breathing techniques above for just a few minutes and you will see that
meditation pretty much naturally happens after that.
The third meditation tip is to
drop all expectations about what you will get out of your meditation. Don't
expect anything from your meditation.
It is important to understand
that your natural state is already unconditional peace, love and freedom. It is
not something you acquire; it is something you realize you are, something you
awaken to. And you awaken to your natural state through relaxing into this
moment to the point where you are one with it. You ease into this moment.
But if you are expecting
something out of your meditation, you are separating yourself from this moment;
you are actually separating yourself from the bliss and peace you are seeking
in the first place. You are already putting conditions on how this moment
should be and this only leads to frustration.
So take note of this
meditation tip because nothing ruins meditation more than expecting that you
are going to get a certain something out of it. Meditation knows what to do; it
is something you have to allow to happen naturally.
The fourth Meditation Tips is
to fully allow this moment to be as it is, but at the same time give your
complete attention to this moment. You want to be completely at ease, but you
also want to be completely attentive. Often one may associate relaxation with
just letting yourself wander about in your thinking, but in meditation, there
must be the focus on this moment. To allow thinking to be as it is, but to be
aware of it. To remain present.
But at the same time, you do
not want this focus on being present to be about controlling this moment. We
don't want to control our thoughts, we don't want to control our feelings, we
just want to be aware of them. We want to allow them to be completely in full
hands off relaxation, but we want to be watchful of them, fully aware of this
moment.
The fifth meditation tip will
improve your meditation a thousand fold. And the meditation tip is to take full
advantage of Kundalini Shakti.
What is Kundalini Shakti? In
the terms we are using it here it means the energy vibration one naturally
radiates when they have attained full enlightenment. When you sit with a fully
enlightened being whose Kundalini is fully awakened, this enlightened energy
called Kundalini Shakti is awakened in you, and this effortlessly awakens you
into deep meditation.
Just by sitting in the
presence of a fully enlightened Guru, you can experience profound states of
meditation within minutes that you may not have been able to experience after
sixty years of practice on your own.
Often you can instantly feel
incredible states of peace, bliss and love, without having to practice any
meditation technique at all. Meditation naturally happens when you sit with
such an enlightened being.
Because of new breakthroughs
in sound recording, you can also receive this same Kundalini Shakti by
listening to a very unique CD. Just by listening to meditation music which
emits Kundalini Shakti, you will experience incredible states of meditation and
bliss. Without the help of Kundalini Shakti, meditation can be a very
frustrating experience.
