What is meditation?

 Meditation is not reflection -

or any other kind of discursive thinking-

It is pure concentration:

training of the mind to dwell on an Interior focus

without wandering 

until it becomes absorbed in the object of its contemplation

The object being :

consciousness itself ,

which means all the senses close down- 

and as the concentration deepens-

a state of intense inner wakefulness-

Insights emerge!!!


pg.25 : The Upanishads
