Meditation has been defined as: "self regulation of attention, in the service of self-inquiry, in the here and now."[5] The various techniques of meditation can be classified according to their focus. Some focus on the field or background perception and experience, also called "mindfulness;" others focus on a preselected specific object, and are called "concentrative" meditation. There are also techniques that shift between the field and the object.[6]

In mindfulness meditation, the meditator sits comfortably and silently, centering attention by focusing awareness on an object or process (either the breath, a sound: a mantra, koan or riddle evoking questions; a visualisation, or an exercise). The meditator is usually encouraged to maintain an open focus: ... shifting freely from one perception to the next clear your mind of all that bothers you no thoughts that can distract you from reality or your personal being... No thought, image or sensation is considered an intrusion. The meditator, with a 'no effort' attitude, is asked to remain in the here and now. Using the focus as an 'anchor'... brings the subject constantly back to the present, avoiding cognitive analysis or fantasy regarding the contents of awareness, and increasing tolerance and relaxation of secondary thought processes.[6]

Concentration meditation is used in most religions and spiritual practices. Whereas in mindfulness meditation there is an open focus, in concentration meditation the meditator holds attention on a particular object (e.g., a repetitive prayer) while minimizing distractions; bringing the mind back to concentrate on the chosen object.[7] In some traditions, such as Vipassana, mindfulness and concentration are combined.[8]

Meditation can be practiced while walking or doing simple repetitive tasks. Walking meditation helps to break down habitual automatic mental categories, "thus regaining the primary nature of perceptions and events, focusing attention on the process while disregarding its purpose or final outcome." In a form of meditation using visualization, such as Chinese Qi Gong, the practitioner concentrates on flows of energy (Qi) in the body, starting in the abdomen and then circulating through the body, until dispersed.[6] Some meditative traditions, such as yoga or tantra, are common to several religions[3] or occur outside religious contexts.

  • This is my first time doing this and it was amazing.My body was like gelly, my breathing was very soft, my blood pressure was low. I saw lots of phosphene, in circles, and it looked like a snake or a dragon sometimes.I travelled through tunnels.One was of water and one looked like I was in space(I could see stars).I lost water tunnel pretty fast, I couldn't concentrate. But when I saw the space and the stars, I could open my and eyes and them close them and almost see the stars again immediately

  • copy, paste the title of the above video in the search space and change the video number from 4 of 5 to 5 of 5. you will find the video.

  • Guys it takes sometime

  • Yes, it is absolutely right, your soul can come out from body n u can also go in past n can see future...I know many people who gets many benefits from meditation, even some were suffering from cancers n many more diseases , n meditation cures the diseases. When u can see a light in center of eyebrows, after that u may feel some pain In heart or any other part of body, but u donot need to take medicine, it gets well with meditation. Part 5 is missing
