Insight Meditation


One could experience full sphere of meditation when the mind is thought free. Mind is a garden of thoughts such as thoughts of happiness, ambitions, doubts, jealous, worries and many more. Thoughts are the weeds of worries. Thoughts are desires and desires keep one restless. Insight meditation helps one accepting the thoughts, recognizing the thoughts and let them vanish. When the thoughts and desires are gone then you can experience the purity and lightness in your mind. This also increases the energy level of your body enabling to experience inner peace and to realise your infinite potential.

Sit comfortably in a relaxed mood. Place your palms on your lap facing upward. Close your eyes. Breathe normally. Imagine a clear white board in your mind and focus on the whiteness. When thoughts come into your mind, read it on the white board, imagine wiping it out and clearing the board. Repeat the process each time when a thought, feeling or impression comes into your mind. Wiping and cleaning the board helps you to return to the mental image of pure white. Continue meditation until you make sure the board is completely clean and your mind is calm and serene. At this moment, slowly bring your attention back to your normal state. Feel gratitude to the Almighty for enabling you reach a state of thought free. Strongly rub your palms, feel the warmth on your heart, then on the eyes and spread to the whole body. Slowly open your eyes, feel refreshed and relaxed. This meditation can be practised from ten minutes to one hour based on one’s need.
