Concentration and Meditation

Are concentration and meditation same?
Concentration and Meditation are not same. Concentration is a way to go in meditation. 
You select an object for concentration then give attention on it so that your mind do not wander here and there. This is concentration you can do but not meditation.
You have to just be in meditation because meditation is not a process to do something. Your thinking process stops there. You and your concentration object becomes one in it. You go beyond yourself.
Once a salt doll went to measure the depth of Ocean. It wanted to tell others how deep the water was. But this it could never do, for no sooner did it get into the water it melted. Now, who was there to report the ocean's depth.

The God

What is the simplest way to achieve God?  The simplest way to attain God is meditation. Today I tell about the meditation through which thousands of people have become available to God. This method is derived from Bodhyadharma. Millions of people are following this method.  In this 15-minute meditation, you can sit in any posture, in which you have comfort or lie down on your back like a dead-body. Leave your body loose. Close your eyes lightly and feel that my thoughts are calming ... My thoughts are calming .... Within four-five minutes you will see, your thoughts have calmed down.

As the breath goes in, your mind also goes in and feel the place, feel the point from where your breath returns back out. And also the point from where the breath returns from outside. In this way, with breath you also keep going in and out. In a few days you will rece...

Worshiping Idol

Why do we worship idol? We cannot believe in the formless God, so there is no worship of the formless. Yes, you can worship the shape of the formless and become available to the formless. The idol or doll is also associated with our childhood memories. We have an inner love with him. Meera fell in love with the idol of Krishna in his childhood. Krishna lived as Meera kept him. This made Meera feel very easy to be with Krishna . This childhood love became devotion and Meera became Krishna herself, received God. If we can be in love with an idol, then we can be available to God. Krishna says, "You worship me by whatever you worship."

A great message

If a person wants to learn something from your life, what message would you like to give him? Unwind, leave what you have learned from your life so far. Education and society have made you so clever that in this you have lost your innocence, simplicity.  Children are attached to life with their innocence and simplicity. They learn from life. We have forgotten to learn from life. If you want to learn something from life, it is to connect with life. Have to get life.  What we see from the screen of our knowledge is not life. Life occur when you put your knowledge aside, you connect with life instead of being entangled in yourself, you are with you. Life happens when you are with yourself. You have to learn life from life.
