Seeking enlightenment

Meditation is the key to spiritual enlightenment. If we seek enlightenment, we must start meditating every day. We can start by meditating for 10 minutes each day and gradually increase it over a period of time. Then, there will come a time when we will be meditating all day, we will be in a state of consciousness, experiencing true peace and happiness. It is in this state that we can connect to our true self, to the divine consciousness. When the mind becomes still, we experience peace. Peace is the foundation of happiness.

Meditation greatly helps in improving focus and concentration. It is also known to help people fight depression. It creates positivity. Negative thoughts are replaced by positive ones.”
Regular meditation leads to a state of thoughtlessness or consciousness, where the intellect is activated and with the discrimination power of the intellect, we can make right decisions. Meditation is thus, one of the paths on which man can have the ultimate Spiritual experience – enlightenment!
