Meditation: The Reason And The Method.
Twhy must meditate? Meditation has nothing important? Certainly you would like to find out, if not you tã does not read the dport. I would like to emphasize that meditation, not whether we only do when free dark Meditation on the contrary, the need for a happy life, our well-being.Very strange people are always thinking about the future or the past. The young people then think to the future lies ahead. The gìa then remember about the past eã lived through. But to experience the life, we need to live in the present moment. ™ Live there in the past. It's just memories, hòai memories. Life does not happen in the future. It is just expected. The point we really unique alive is so far ahead. And we must live like that. The human life can pull d1952 in 60 or 70 nserved, but we have to learn to live in the moment hiIsrael in. How will reduce life annoyances, as if we only live in the present moment. Say the easy but very difficult to practice, instead! Who sã did try quite eã experience is this. Anyone ever try, will discover it. A my advice is simple, but not easy to implement. And no method would help us to live each moment to the effective current by. We all know to keep the body clean. We bathe every day at least once or more. When off the road, is wearing clean clothes. Up to the sleeping body for him to think. If not, it is not sufficient to cope with the difficulties of everyday life. We need to have a roof to cover for themselves from the rain, wind, heat, cold. The lack of things that, stems will not tolerate that. We also fostered by the formula selected food, nutritional, fitness worries for themselves are robust, healthy. The oil is not set, we also take the stand, operation, v-if not one limb will teo pork rind. Care should also be taken care of just like that. Right off, we have to take care of the mind than the body, because the mind is the master, and the servant is only relative. A servant of healthy, robust, aggressive but had a weak boss , Maj. Ray kiIsrael decided not to know what to do, also hard to do so. The owner must know the controls, the servant of mto. Even if the person is full I cannot be healthy, resourceful but wise boss, good at th giắnì ' House ' of us also are in. Mind and body, we should do our own ' House '. If the House is not inner is y, the result of House outside of a steady hard also. The House we live in, and the work depending on the security of the inner House. The owner, who controls have to live in the conditions theydescribed added. Nothing in the universe, we can compare or replace is the mind. The mind creates everything. But all we all despise his mind. It is also a paradox of his life. No one despise his body, if it's a chronic illness, he rushes off to the doctor. If it's fatigue, we rushed it to rest. But one has to do for the mind? Looks like only the teacher's attention to their heart. Want the mind is developed further, we need to take care of the mind. Otherwise the mind we always looked at the life in the eyes of the second threatof Israel (two way): good, bad; tomorrow or yesterday; love (I love this stuff), hate (I loathe the other stuff); Yes (I own hũu this ones), no (not getting other stuff); This one, the other of him. Only when the mind isã to be rindicator switches, we can close the nhhis options for the nhoptions see the ' dimensions ' of things. We need to do first to Mind is cleansed, bath wash for it, not just once a day or twice as for the body, but in every moment of awakening ... To do that, we must know the method. With the body, that's pretty easy, just dùng strong-rooms and water. We eã familiar do so from an early age. But the mind can only be wash wash with care. What the mind tã accession, only the mind can remove. Each moment of awakening in the meditation is every moment of the mind are sàng filter because fortunately, the mind cannot do two things at once. The oil that, as Buddha said in a blink of an eye we can have thousands of ideas raised, but the fact at least one thought much to so và is cannot have all of these envisage that in cùng at a time. They followed each other one after the other after the chaotic first glance quickly in the beginning. When we Meditate, craving, desire, may not appear because the mind can only do one job at a time. So that if the time interval t meditativeinternal antenna lIsrael, the dirty stain in the Center will be to wash wash ngon a becoming cleaner. Center, unique in the universe, the only treasure we are getting. When there is a map you will, of the children'sof Israel as we are treated with care. Detergents, polishes, lubricants, occasionally giving it thought. And here we have the mind always behold, only mind helps us do everything, including the Enlightenment, but knows goptions to keep it or not all is depending on us. The mind will become useless if not kept goptions, elaborate. At the sitting meditation, one episode turned down out of the center of what we see. So just keep in mind what we like to think of. When eã habit, we can apply the method of meditation on the living life normally, to help us end these unhealthy thoughts. So thanks for sitting meditation, one may end up running đuỗi under the expectation of living life, in contrast to the us do not run đuỗi according to expectations in life makes our meditation easyàng; Who can master their thoughts, making just think to the g-they like to think of being called là A-la-Han or Enlightened beings. Don't be surprised if not one can also end up disappointed. It's good when one can only think to what we like to think of, v-so is it tã master mind of mto, rather than the mind master. Always run đuỗi any ideas nrushing to raise the run up in the mind, whether happy or miserable, là habit we should abandon when the sitting meditation. The next step is to train the mind. The mind does not curb like the wavy outcrops have lost down, running upan antenna other passing gasoline from this conversation, never can head yIsrael a. Not every experience there when reading the book, the last new page suddenly realized to not know mto just read gì, must read the whole page. We must promote, working in health careas a result of a place, like one must end the push, the muscles, when one episode breathe, free weights. The development, at tcellular growth can only get from the training center làm as ta, stand yIsrael when we want it to stand yIsrael. The practice also helps the mind more strong, because the mind isã to be rindicator switches work know to let go. We are not A-la-Han, who also Fell. Individual Democratic primary, ' the behold, the other end of Britain ' sã make up how the title trof Israel in the world. We define ' a ngã ' through what we think, through books, movies toreview, tã read, or use just to làm these things also try to add to the individual himself. The most important thing we learned during the sitting meditation, is know to let go, not running in pursuit of good ideas. When no one thought, no longer has the fall. At first, we could just let go be good ideas in a short period, but that only là step. The spiritual path and the ùngc last also led him to the homotor vehicle theft all let go. There is nothing we need to achieve or cling vhumming. The this eã was founded again several times, but we have no way whatsoever other than to diễntả. Yes, the spiritual path is the path that leads to the abandonment of the discharge, let go of all that eã is one of accumulation, containing from solong today: The owner, the routines, ideology, prejudice, the way of thinking in stereotypes. But sitting meditation, not easy to let go of expectations, because of the ego is not easy beginning hàng; I would feel lost loose when not envisage. The mind will react immediately by exclaimed: "what happened?"--and then if not know let go of discharge, the mind is run đuỗi according to expectations. How to get started in medicineas a result of a seasonal migrant, is contributing to the development of ' muscle ' of the mind, giving mind more strength and power. Teachings of the Buddha are very penetrating high, thúy NGA siêu, and only the center of intensive new subliminal Thuy, can fully comprehend the teachings of Jesus. Therefore, we need to train the mind more Vung Tau strong. One body strength can be sustained are all g-we catch it suffered under. A strong Mind is like that. Strong heart can bear for the nhàm bored, can antenna directly, despair or suffering--v-mind don't cling to what it doesn't like. Regular meditation practice to la way to train the mind. Is a priceless part, most amazing life, mind over all things need to be taken care of. So that one eã constantly thinking impairment, calculated at childhood poems, and from how much weight before that. Throughout the day we think, throughout the syncsmoothly we dream mị. No minutes seconds would stop to think. We can think of summer, take the letters gisoft food. But in fact what relax? The body was a gisoft food. It goes upthe mountain into the sea, Israel travel, horizon, sea, angle, but also the mind? Instead of thinking what to do at home, it's busy accession to the audio, optical sight, taste for novelty. The mind does not get rest, it's just rather close the work only. If our bodies are not đuoc rest aquieter, it's hard to work the next day. The mind we also need to rest, but not in my sleep. The mind can only be rest when it stopped every thought, mà just feel. One can for the mind as a blank screen, on which the film was liIsrael continue to slide over, never stopping to think. Because the film--thought--constantly shining, people forgot about the screen plates are also behind it. If we can suspend the film at taking part in meditation, we will feel the stillness of mind. constant That là great moments. Moments of happiness can't make search in where, through any means nhumming. Great happiness, not dependent on any condition bof Israel also would, except meditation practice. Not depending on the delicious, good weather, you you, empathy, support essential master or of material wealth. All things that are not able tùy belong to, since they are rather Close. Only a mindful, mindfulness is not to abandon us if we continue to practice Meditation. When the pause in sound, not just for the silence, but also the feeling of harmony. The mind in the end was rest. It sã search is coming to nhà. I know how miserable without herà cover correctly. The mind also. Moments of peace, tranquility that là ' House ' of the mind. It returns the rest like after a day of work, we came home and fell onto smooth Chair or lie down giuờng to itself rest. The mind now as well. Is rest, not having to think. Thinking, good idea is suffering, let dbuzzing we think of anything. Because of the shifting action là have collided. All transfer activity will produce the collision, friction, suffering. The moment we relax, rest, mindan antenna thpower smoothly and peacefully because it knows it can return home at any time. The peace we found was when sitting meditation will be in one during the ngshrines, both in real life we also tìm sees it. Mind at peace, because knowing that there is nothing obstructing it back home, find the tranquility and harmony. That is the main reason to explain why my life will never be complete without Meditation. These external pleasures that life brings us, not comparable with inner joy. The let go of discharge, do not cling help us understand that the ' ego ' has always hchanges frequently, so that the mind always syncchanges envisage. When we stop all desire, we don't need to think, good idea. When we asked questions ngung, Ridinall the frustration, misery are gone. that is why we need to practice Meditation. First of all we must attach importance to the breath, the breath vrushing home to mủi. The breath is wind, so when the wind on or off, we both felt. The feeling that help us focus in place of mủi. Doing it at first unavoidable difficulties. The breath is our life, so what's more appropriate to use the breath to meditate: it is a living breathing, inseparable from it any moment. So that when we think about it. We forget to stir it, until we lose it, choking, drowning or death. Then we see how vital breath. But when the breath is in our way, we never remembered, the breath is the survival of one of the most precious treasures, all of us. The breath also directly support center. When we exposed or rushed, the breath becomes rushing. When the mind is pure, quiet, gentle breath, stick out. When breathing becomes vulnerable to hard-to-find, is when we are in a State of Meditation . Episodes focused on the breath is a method which helps us reach that State. Breathing is a medium with wIsrael, can be controlled. We can make deep breath, long or short or suspended momentarily. There are many ways to consider vrushing breath. One can track the breath in, breath out when we focus to it. Want to practice this method, no need to change such a breathless silence only as dõi it on out. Or attention by combining breathing with, for example, ' Nam '. When inhaled, the tissue when breathing out. One can also count once inhaled vhumming, once out,. The two inhalation, two when breathing out. Do not count under 5, not counting the 10. When counting to 10, again began to come back. When the mind wanders, start counting back to 1. At the beginning, if you never count too, don't be discouraged ltotal. Please persevere. All centres are the same. You don't have to think, "I can not meditating. Meditation does not suit me. " But ' I ' in this là? It's just a mind without restraint against the mind tã is restraint. A maximum driving rangeas a result of that exercise will run fast, run better people. World only. If there is an attempt to work out, not that: "I am useless. I can't run fast ". Counting the breath, mantras, focus on breathing in nose or follow the breath. Try the method which suits you, and then keep taking methods . If you can focus the mind, by tracking the breath bulging ventral down xệp to do so. How is leg for you to sit for long. Back straight but not is anti-. Shoulder, abdomen, and neck also have to relax, soft. When you sit upright, chúi fell back. Well have to keep straight. The early, easy reclining chúi distress to sleep rather than retreat. When sitting in Meditation we need to complete the form. You will find that it is not also based on breath, though you set by any method: anniversary of Uncle, count 1-1, 2-2 or attention vnose breath rushing or track the breath out. The mind still lgasoline an antenna unless you eã practiced meditation for a long time. Good idea-film-still there. Only way is called the good ideas, but if you're having difficultyeating, can simply by calling the generic need for ' thoughts ', ' memoirs ', ' made ', ' planned ' or ' bullshit '. Does not matter. Because right now it is set for the good idea a tIsrael, is at ta eã ripped him out of it. If not, you are not seated meditation that is sitting and you'll totally misled, lured by the thought of his own. Will you take care of your cat locked up outside the door, the small child who does not know concerns to bed yet ...Any gì, you also are anxious, of course you are going to justify that, "But I need to know what that anyway". During Zazen, you don't need to know about deals g-all. The sequential anyway life went on, no need to worry. Every moment, it came and went. When good ideas raised, let's face it, most recent t-named for it. Hit the wrong, not matter. Once expectations were named, which means we can let go of it. Gradually this habit will be we applied vGE ... every moment. Thus when the ideologies are not in the light, we can let go of them. You will only think of things mto want to think, and in doing so, you will never see the agony of pain anymore. Only the voluntary new to be miserable. Named to the thought, that is helping us identify good idea in everyday life, but when the sitting meditation, we call it is the awakening. That's the way to practice mindfulness. The Buddha said: "The way is the only way to rescue people, help them avoid disappointment, step on the path of enlightenment, escape from misery". Know that ' I am thinking. I'm suspended đễng. Worried. In action rứt. Daydreaming about the future. Dream... ". Just get to know, and then returns with breathing. If you have thousands of good ideas, then please tell them thousands of times. Get the led out of good ideas and their content. That is the cornerstone of the active awakening, the only road to liberation-if we really practice them. Our body will feel uncomfortable because of having to sit in an unfamiliar position, and especially because we caught it to sit still. Family never liked to be in place only for a short time. Just as when lying on the bed, comfort, also leat go smoothly isquieter. Want to move the body to get rid of the discomfort, nof Israel although it is asleep, the body is still moving. Also, when we meditate, the difficulty is raised. Instead of immediately under the fuselage, instead of close the sitting as we still often làm, usually react when pain, discomfort led lIsrael, be aware of it. Observed discomfort from where . There are v-contact with the pillow, the floor or with the other leg. From the born feeling. From the sensory ' leads to hreleased . (This is the vicious circle of reincarnation. The response of the US to the sense of bringing us to samsara). Only three kinds of feeling: pleasant, unpleasant, neutral. Sitting meditation that cause discomfort, so the mind speak up: ' Asia, discomfort, pain too. I am depressed, I wanted to break out of this feeling. ' We live, react like that every day, from morning to night, are like that. Any g-made us uncomfortable, we flee, roamed đuỗi or trying to replace such other causes outside the us. Anyway we roamed đuỗi suffering. But will in no way whatsoever do , unless we end up being ltotal taking part. Any article g-one makes oneself, to turn any dimension and then it would also upset because the comfort may not last long. Please observe the vicious it: exposure, sensation, reaction. ' I feel pain. I want to run away from here. ' But instead of v-flee, let's put all the attention vGE ... where are suffering pain, to feel the close of it. You will see pain sensations or is moved to another place, or the replacement of such magnitude. Feeling that no là a block , it moves, it's close. Remember well that, the body does not have the pain, but it is painful. Just like we understand the truth about the pain of being human. Not the body sometimes we suffer pain, malaise mà it always hurt, annoyed. It can not lie or sit still without feeling uncomfortable. Let's get to know names of impermanence. Let's get to know nature of suffering has been support in the human body. Be aware of the feeling they come, without our invitation. So why call them as ' my '? Let's get to know them from the discomfort, then moved close if needed, not là immediately. Just go close once we have a suicide why it should do so. Move light extremely nhàng, full of mindfulness in order not làm troubling to people around us. A seated place bite ran antenna suffer, và stanzas "I'll sit raw anyway. I will not be sustained so that half, but I still try to be " not bring benefit loc gì for the sitting meditation. It's a false reaction does what no other quick surrender. A Dang là run đuỗi according to the comfort, behind another là the cling to suffer pain. They just là two sides of a coin. The best way là how to understand rinner õ, understand the issue of the ta, and like new really yield results. Please contact with thought and feeling when they led. Observations of impermanent character. They come and they go. So why we get themà l? We have to invite them? Certainly is not. We only have to meditate alone right? So why the mind is full of good ideas? They have to be? They have to be the agony of pain? Impermanence, suffering pain, ngã is a three character how trùm universe. Unless we get to know them from the mind of one, we will never understand the Buddha say gì. Meditation is a method to help him out . Meditation is the issue . C notall just words.
