Sometimes I must be silent
                               for that is the only way
                               to know a little better,
                               to think a little wiser,
                              to become a little more perfect,
                              to claim God a little sooner.

No matter which path you follow for meditation, the first and foremost task is to try to make the mind calm and quiet. This task is the most difficult one but if someone will try hard then surely can. If the mind is constantly roaming, if it is all the time a victim of merciless thoughts, then you will make no progress whatsoever. The mind has to be made calm and quiet so that when the light descends from above, you can be fully conscious of it. In your conscious observation and conscious acceptance of light, you will enter into a profound meditation and see the purification, transformation and illumination of your life. During this process, don’t ever try to force yourself, how long your force, the mind will roam away, so try to let it come down at calm and peaceful level naturally.

How will you make the mind calm and quiet? The mind has its own power, and right now this power is stronger than your present eagerness and determination to meditate. But if you can get help from your heart, then gradually you will be able to control your mind. The heart, in turn, gets constant assistance from the soul, which is all light and all power.

Note: Meditation is very natural, don’t panic or try hard for anything, just try to listen to your body, and go on with normal breathing.  During meditation just keep the normal process.
