Meditation

The practice of inverting the mind to pay attention to the inner silence instead of the outer chaos.

Other forms of meditation focus on the outer chaos instead. This practice is accepted in almost all religions, but is encouraged most in Buddhism.

In paganism meditation is used for much of the same reasons as other religions use it for but it also has a place within rituals to cleanse the mind before doing magic as well as to focus energy into a certain object or task.

Guided meditations are also used for those seeking to improve their astral (see – ASTRAL) presence.

Meditation is known to be a way of transforming the mind. It is a practice which has spread all over the world and now it is practiced everywhere and not just confined to cloistered halls of the monastery.

• One is supposed to improve and constantly progress
• One is supposed to cultivate without looking outside themselves
• One is supposed to not to concentrate on past failures and successes of life

What To Do

When one goes to the hall to begin practicing, they are supposed to put aside all their day to day matters of their mind The regulations and the rules of the hall where the meditation is to take place, have to be strictly adhered to; and no one is allowed to bend down rules to suit self-interests.

The mind which is empathetic should be nurtured because a person who is empathetic is normally gentle by nature and it is very easy for them to enter into deep meditation. The practitioner is advised to refrain from any wrongdoing and concentrate on what is right. Repenting of any misdeeds, however, small or big they are is a must. And one has to have faith and believe that, they will make it and that their teacher is the best in the world.
