  • I wanna fly!

  • I can't clear my mind worth crap!! D;

  • i dislike that there is only 11 dislikes on this. I dont wanna play the i'm right your wrong game but that guy didn't know what he was talking about. SwamiIi's everywhere are most likely going to be outraged by this.

  • I try to clear my mind, but it's simply impossible to stop thinking about stuff.

  • @Hydroxoid same thing here.

  • @Hydroxoid relaxe ur body and focus on ur breathing. breath slower than usual. its take about 1-2 minutes to relax after i really concetrate on my breathing

  • well, everything is correct, except for the empty stomache part.

    it is possible to meditate without having a empty stomache. really.

    you dont even need to alter what u do. ;p

  • @jakeman1245 well an empty stomach could be an advantage if you think about it, if you realise you dont feel hungry anymore, well youre doing something right :)

  • @SirBlue3719 actually a guru, who knows how to meditate like the back of his hand, told me u dont need a empty stomache. gurus created meditation, more like found it. plus theese are scientists saying u need an empty stomache..

  • How am I suppost to find an uncharted place like that? 

  • Hehe, I gotta meditate, I'm a good catcher of flu..

    Thanks, Howcast ^^

  • Stop meditate and go for a walk with your family!

  • I have always found that soft classical music helps me to meditate. Begin by taking a deep breath hold it for a few seconds and then release it. Listen to the music to exclude the outer world and focus on your inner self. @sidgerry

  • i wanna meditate like george harrison

  • BULLSHIT

  • How the FUCK did i get here from 4chan.

  • @limoguy333 there 're different kinds of meditation, one to improve your focus, one to clear your mind, one to think... etc.

  • @loqupol meditation is supposed to be the complete opposite of attention. its met to clear your mind of any conscious thought.

  • i like how hes walking without moving his feet @ 0:34

  • haha YES WE CAN can also block out thoughts

  • but empty stomach make me so hungry!

  • I meditated for my first time, now im hearing loads of high pitched noises for some reason.

  • @archangel1092 high pitched noises? interesting

  • I want to see if meditation will help in doing hydrokinesis. Or cyrokinesis, I wander if it's humanly possible to do what the avatar the last airbender can do? But anything is possible, who knows I might be able to... If I make worldwide headlines then you'll know... But I don't even know how to meditatae LOL...!! ^.^

  • i'm subscribing

  • I really want to meditate every day because of my temper. i've got a really short fuse and tend to bug people a lot. thanks for the video, i really hope i can make this a daily thing.

  • This is my favorite meditation video. Meditation helps me to reduce stress from work. I hate my job so bad. I do meditation everyday and it's great for my health.

  • @OS253 Why not get a new job?

  • @Secreteye2 cuz of the Recession. Duh! No offense.

  • @boxerdogify3 tru then again i am only 11 so i dont know too much!

  • @Secreteye2 age is a state of mind

  • why is it when I start to meditat after all my thought are gone I start to sing songs in my head. and I cant stop ?

  • @ThunderTundra1011

    Same thing happens here.

  • This is a well done explanation. Thanks

    I have found it helpful to sit cross legged on a meditation cushion. Helps keep my spine straight.

  • Can you tell me the bad things about meditate and the good things?Please.

  • Step2 no one can do that no more this place is a rotton mess but we can all fix that! Whos with me?

  • My GAD makes it almost IMPOSSIBLE to meditate

  • There we go, we don't need no h1n1 vaccination, all we got to do is meditate.

  • I love how it looks like he's flying instead of walking :D

  • Life is suffering. It's proven on Youtube. The only way out is to read Tipitaka Meditate and realise the truth. Eventually to realise that blissful and eternal mental state- nibbana.

  • u people need to stop arguing. i would say 80% of youtube comments are part of an arguement. stop fighting.

    share the love.

  • You mind is not a muscle! It actually needs a great deal of oxygen and fat!

    Protein is made up of amino acids.

    There are many vegetable combo's that

    can provide you with the protein you require.

    I never criticized an animal for eating another animal, but I think there is something better within you.

    If you find it, that will be good for the universe and yourself, if you don't then you don't.

  • Jake, that is true, if you are only an 'animal'. I've been veg for 25 years.

    Meditation will help you to be in touch

    with your divine nature.

    Not trying to preach, I was where you were. But, as your awareness increases

    you will recognize the pain you cause others!

    If you ever had a pet, you will realize,

    animals are like 2 yr old children intellectually, they are just like us emotionally. Kill an animal and see its

    fear, you will never do it again and still

    have a heart.

  • wow, the ending of this sentence really touched me deeply within, "kill an animal see its fear" as i pictured it in my head it broke my

    heart and made realize why i used to want to become a vegetarian.

  • Trust your feelings, more than your, 'thoughts'. Animals, are our children.

    An animal that has been given love, conversation, have the intelligence, of a

    2 your old human, if you wouldn't hurt a

    child, don't kill, an animal, they are 'comrades' of life.

    If we are 'humans', if we are divine, then

    we must give our lower species love!

    Being a 'prick' is easy for humans, being

    kind and loving, is the hard part, for most

    of us. Being 'loving' is not a 'weakness'

    It's a strength!

  • @fntime Why treating animals depending on their level of intelligence... No wonder everyone wants to look inteliget to get respect?

  • Well... hard to try... I'd like to do this in my backyard but I feel is a bad place

  • Why? There is no right or wrong place, but the video, is trying to help many people who have never meditated before. I go to work early in the morning, I meditate on the train, you can eventually meditate anywhere. Thai meditation, you meditation all day, while you do some of the most 'mundane' activity. But this video is good, it conditions your mind, that it is 'meditation time'. No you don't have to be barefoot! Juswolf22, in all due respect you're wacky.
  • do you have to be barefoot?? walkin outside barefoot makes you vulnerable to worms that can enter your body through your feet

  • no just be comfortable

  • im hungry now

  • So, eat! (lol) When your mind is 'hungry'

    meditate!

  • Yeah see i believe that the circle of life, but what bothers me is the horrible inhumane way we kill them.

  • the animals get their vitamins from vegetables, and then carnivores eat them and get all the vitamins.and I'm not a vegetarian. far from it. but my brother is and I can understand why someone would want to be.

  • can it prevent the Swine Flu?????

  • I personally do yoga, and just one tip, dont fill up your belly, try to push your belly bottom as closer to the spine as possible. Inflate your chest cavities and also try to inflate your ribs to the sides ;)

  • Excellent, concise introduction to meditation.

  • Just meat? Hm... I could only stand it if I could have dairy and grains in there too. xD

  • no, but it makes you healthier.

  • It doesent make you healthier either.

  • yes it does. you can get your minerals form vitamin.

  • You get your minerals by eating both. Vegetarians just dont get the necessary things meat has.

  • Wouldn't it be best to eat both Vegetables and Meats together instead of just one? .-.

  • Imagine eating just meat. But yes eating both was my point from the beginning.

  • Think this video is rather pointless, no offence. It gives way too few detail, specially the sitting can be important.

    Also, an empty stomach ain't that necessary, you just shouldn't do it right after you filled it.

    Plus it's absolutely NOT necessary to meditate alone at some empty place. Many people tend to build up nervousity then or feel inpatient, try to check the time all the time which is rather distracting from the point. It's better to go to group meditations at the beginning. etc

  • the other how to meditate video gives better detail for those who want to know in depth on how to meditate it has an animation of a bald person.

  • Thanks, this video really helped

  • adhd makes it hard to focus let alone meditate X_X

  • i find it more effective to keep my fingers interlaced in my lap. and i focus on the pattern of my breathing

  • recently after meditation I get runny poo the next day, is that normal ?

  • Thank you~

  • But then if my stomach is empty, I'll be hungry and then I can't help but think about food!

  • @chicanaxXxpirate I don't think you need to be starved when u meditate.

  • @chicanaxXxpirate Thats your way of relaxing?

  • Comment removed

  • @chicanaxXxpirate hahahahaha!

  • @chicanaxXxpirate Mantra is your answer

  • @chicanaxXxpirate

    If you are hungry, you should eat, digest and THEN meditate. Having an empty stomach doesn't mean being hungry.

  • @Derriuz dude, I was just kidding

  • @chicanaxXxpirate

    My bad ;d

  • @chicanaxXxpirate The bodys metabolism is not turned on until about 10 AM, and the best time to meditate, naturally, is in the morning so that would be my solution if i was in your shoes.

    All is love and love is all.

  • meditation is something to bring peacewhen have anyone said that u have to be this to meditate i meditate infact not like this vid says how to but i just relax and think peaceful thoughts this vid is the professinal way but u can do it how ever u want race and religion does not matter

  • i never get the flu :P

  • i agree.. it shouldt matter about the color of your skin. its meditation regardless of where it came from everyone deserves a chance to breathe and feel at peace. i do agree however that cultures have been taken and twisted and changed in anglo tradition. hahhahahaha. but seriously. its not like its kente cloth hes wearing. hes just breathing, relax.

  • I don't appreciate a white man showing me how to meditate. Its one things to destroy cultures its another thing to show a culture how its done. I'm not racist, but if you don't know how to sew don't show someone else how to do it. You can sew your own stuff though.

  • whats the color of skin got to do with cultur though?

  • Anyone can meditate fool, it's not even about culture it's about being at peace with your body and mind, some cultures use it to spread messages and that's all well and good, but there is no reason anyone shouldn't be allowed to meditate nor show others how to meditate

  • O now any1 can do it. Forgive me but arent christians not allowed to meditate or they will go to hell.Didnt the hindus bring the meditation to you, or have you forgotten. I never said he shouldnt be allowed to meditate, but your practicing an acient philosophy that should not be taken for granted.meditation should not be used for your self gratifications like sex and drugs its a spiritual cleansing. Forgive me for bringing culture into this.

  • And no christians ARE allowed to meditate. And imitation is the best form of flattery. If your trying to say hindus brought in meditation (which is correct) that happened years ago all those people are dead. if they brought it to america, the melting pot of cultures, they wanted it to spread so i dont no why your freaking out.

  • two words: Kama Sutra. nuff said.

  • Why not?! Thats racist. No in fact, it isnt. Because if their white it doesnt matter but if your messing with any other minority its some horrible sin

  • Meditation has been around for thousands of years! Lots of cultures practice it now! Get over it! You are very ignorant!

  • w/e

  • i liked it!! nice tutorial :D

  • thank you, I liked this and am going to give it a try :o)

  • Well done! I'm impressed that mention was made that the belly should expand during inhalations. This is breathing with the diaphragm (as opposed to the rib cage), and it's very important. I would have appreciated far more emphasis on breathing methodology and importance.

  • ROFL!you forgot 2 levitate

  • I don't understand? You sit there trying to block out thoughts?

    What if you accomplish that? Are you suppose to sit there without any thought? That's what relieves stress? Not having any thoughts?

  • I'm extremely obese, my clothes just about fit let alone fit loosely and comfortably. There are no buses to my nearest forest at 4am in the morning, I keep nodding off during meditation because I got up so early without any breakfast. And that walk to the forest got my asthma going again. Any suggestions?

  • eat right. lose weight. get healthy. keep meditating.

  • Eat a magic shroom pizza and watch the exorcist 3 times in reverse

  • damn thats alotta shrooms, homefry

  • McHinduism

  • that would weaken you, not relax you.

  • its better to mediate between 4AM and 6AM? i am NOT getting up that early to sit queitly!

    Mantra = OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM­MMM

    LOLZ

  • BTW. watch my remake of this instructional video "How To Meditate In a Gansters Paradise"

    [watch?v=F7ikyFYGV9k]

  • dude thats not a remake its just adding music...

  • you didnt watch it all did you? ....

  • what if you fart while meditating, does that affect the process?

  • lol then breath it in as punishment nice remake btw

  • That's O.K. I've got A spare.

  • Congrats.

  • So do I.

  • Now I can create a healthier me thru meditation.

  • Sometimes I can meditate perfectly great. But othertimes my mind is too crowded, and so by trying to clear my thoughts I start thinking about why I'm thinking about what Im thinking about then I start thinking about thinking about nothing, which is hard because I don't know what to think about. It's just hard. How do you think about nothing without thinking about thinking about nothing ergo thinking of something by thinking of nothing. I just can't quite do it. But maybe if I just try more.

  • just swim

  • swimming ftw :D

  • I know exactly how you feel MonkeyLad...

  • 4 am and 6am ...

  • you could do that...Orr you could hit a blunt

    duhh

  • or you could get some pussy

    duhh

  • 4 and 6 am???

    screw it im sleepin!

    dats my meditation rite there

  • check again, he said AM.

  • Yeah, but y?

  • It probably has something to do with the mechanisms of the biological clock and at those times are minds tend to be the most relaxed or something like that. I have no proof, only guesses.

    Chances are the benefits of that time frame to any other time frame is like the benefits of dark chocolate to milk chocolate. They both have positive impact and sweetness, one just impacts a little more positively in spite of a bitter taste that you can get used to through habit.

  • boring

  • remember this, little grasshoppers......

    the best method is NO method !

    Methods get in the way.

  • im not alloud to meditate at my house because of my religon in stead because im so wried i listen to rock and pop music to calm :P

  • hahaha

  • That was kinda cool

    Will try :)

  • ill try this sometime :D

  • I learned from extensive reading that, in many Eastern traditions, the most important goal of meditation, referred to sometimes as Enlightenment, comes from noticing something subtle but startling about your consciousness.

    Following the suggestions in the video, concentrate on searching inwardly for the part of yourself you call "I". When searched for the "I" vanishes, and you experience moment to moment existence in an entirely new way. This is the state usually referred to as Enlightenment.

  • What do you mean by "something subtle but startling about your consciousness"? As in something about yourself that you didn't know?

  • As in the fact that the "I" actually disappears when you focus your attention on it. Our egos are an illusion produced by how our brains create our awareness. "I", that is we, are not the experiencer of our experiences. Instead, our consciousness doesn't really exist and events are merely sensed. This frees the mind to exist in an entirely new way that words fail to describe. I entreat you: Try it out.

  • Are we at one with the universe now?

    At least this explains why I haven't been sucessfull at catching that thing despite years of effort. LOL.

  • i meditate all the time, it's too chill to not :)
