What is Anapanasati Mediation?
“Ana” means “In-Breath”
“Apana” means “Out-Breath”
‘Sati’ means ‘Be With’
In “Anapanasati Meditation”,
The focus of the mind should gently and constantly be on the natural rhythm of breathing.
The practice involves a mindful, joyful oneness with the rhythm of breathing.
No “mantra” to be chanted…
no form of any ‘ deity ‘ to be entertained in the mind…
no hathayogic pranayama like ‘ kumbhaka ‘..
holding the breath.. should be attempted.
What is the Procedure?
Hands should be clasped and all fingers should go into all fingers
The feet should be crossed, the eyes should be closed
Observe the normal natural breath
Note – Any comfortable sitting posture can be taken… The posture should be as comfortable as possible…It is not at all necessary that we should squat on the ground… You can perfectly prefer a comfortable sofa…
What happens when we meditate?
When we are with the breath-energy, the mind becomes rather empty.
Then, there is a tremendous inflow of cosmic energy into the physical body.
Gradually, the hitherto dormant third-eye begins to become activated.
And, by and by, cosmic consciousness gets to be experienced.
