✨Preparation for Meditation✨
What ever the kind of meditation, a background has to be prepared. Whitout it, meditation can never succeed.
Patanjali said that we must prepare ourselves physically, mentally, morally, and psychologically.
✨ Cleanliness it is a cleansing of the mind, of the emotions. It is an inner purification.
✨ Right posture: each person has to find his own asana, what is important is to be erect in position.
The body, the neck, the head must all be in one straight line.
The spine must be straight for that facilitates the flow of energy.
THE RIGHT ASANA ENABLES US TO FORGET THE BODY.
✨ The next step is to attend to our breathing. There is an intimate connection between our thought movement and the life-force that moves in us.
Whenever we are agitated, our breathing becomes irregular.
When we breathe irregularly, the mind is not at rest.
👉👉The principale is the elongation of breath. We learn to breath deep, as slowly as we can and observe the operation.
This simple technique of taking four five deep breaths and letting them out at the same slow pace restores calm in the mind and controls the thought movement.
When this equalization of breathing is accomplished, it is suggested that we hold the breath for a while. That increases the nervous strengh, enables us to withstand pressures and promotes resilience.
🌈 This brings us to the completion of the essential preliminaries before we are ready for succeeding movements of Meditation proper.
Enjoy🧡
Namaste🙏
