There are many ways to meditate. But what is meditation? Meditation is a state of mind where the mind is free from all thought, and is fully concentrated on a single object. Meditation has been used by religious people for centuries to gain enlightenment and to develop a deep understanding of the universe and its creator.
Meditation is an important tool for self-development. The process of meditation helps you to become more aware of yourself and your surroundings. This awareness can be developed in different ways. It can be achieved through listening to music or chanting mantras, or by sitting in silence and focusing on a particular image or mantra.
The first step in meditation is to find a quiet place where you can sit comfortably. Try to avoid places that are noisy or crowded, so that you can concentrate on the task at hand. Once you have found a quiet place, sit down with your back straight and your hands resting on your knees. Make sure that you are comfortable and that you are not too hot or cold.
Close your eyes and relax your body. Let your breathing slow down and become deeper. You should feel a sense of calmness as you continue to breathe deeply.
When you are ready, begin to focus on one thing. This could be a flower, or a candle flame, or a piece of artwork. As you focus on this object, try to become completely absorbed in it. Let your mind be free from all thoughts and distractions.
As you concentrate on your chosen object, allow your mind to wander. Don’t try to force your mind to stay focused on a single object. Simply let your mind go wherever it wants to go. If you feel bored, simply let your mind return to the object that you have chosen.
Continue to focus on your chosen object until you feel that you have achieved a deep level of concentration. This is when you will know that you have reached the stage of meditation.
Now that you have reached the stage where you are fully concentrated on a single object, you should be able to see everything around you as if it was a part of the object that you have chosen to focus on. This is called’mind merging’.
It is also possible to achieve a state of mind where you can actually see other objects in the world as if they were one object. This is called’mind splitting’.

If you are interested in achieving these states of mind, you can read books on the subject of meditation.
