Basic Meditation Technique Step #5

The sharing of loving kindness is something we can do every day, both before and after daily meditation. A brief period before meditating softens and broadens our minds.

Basic Meditation Technique Step #1

Start by adjusting your sitting position. If you sit on the floor, sit cross-legged, right leg over the left, right hand over the left hand, palms up, your right index finger gently touching your left thumb.

True Happiness and Inner Peace

Meditation is aimed for peace and happiness. The real nature of meditation is the lesson learned by experience, by the feeling inside or by the inner self.

Basic Meditation Technique Step #4

Once your mind is completely still, it will drop the word phrase by itself, as if you are forgetting to recite it (if you simply do not want to recite it anymore, then that is ok).

Basic Meditation Technique Step #3

Now, bring your mind to focus to the center of your body, in the middle of your abdomen, two finger widths above the navel level.

Basic Meditation Technique Step #2

Let everything go. Let your mind be joyful, relaxed and free from all worry. Then, breathe normally. Relax every muscle in your body. Start to relax from the top of your head down to your forehead.

True Bliss

When you attain true bliss and happiness inside yourself through meditation, you will feel so overwhelmed with joy that you will not be able to adequately find words to describe it.

Meditation is not difficult

Close your eyes and clear your mind. Imagine that you are lying down on the grass and looking up at the stars at night. You feel relaxed and comfortable. Just close your eyes and rest your focus at the center of your abdomen.
