How To Meditate: Part 1
This is a three part video podcast on how to meditate. Words are from Sri Chinmoy, a widely known spiritual teacher; the video part shows him in a silent meditation.
Part 1 shows the first step of meditation: "Concentration".
Published by www.srichinmoy.tv for VideoJug.
Step 1: Block Out External Influences
When we concentrate, we do not allow any thought to enter our minds, whether it is divine or undivine, earthly or heavenly, good or bad.
Step 2: Focus The Mind
The mind, the entire mind, has to be focused on a particular object or subject.
Step 3: See Only The Object
If you are concentrating on the petal of a flower, try to feel that only you and the petal exist, that nothing else exists in the entire world but you and the petal.
Step 4: Focus Your Look
You will look neither forward nor backward, upward or inward.
Step 5: Concentrate On The Object
You will just try to pierce the object that you are focusing on with your one-pointed concentration.
Step 6: Concentrate From The Soul
But this concentration is not an aggressive way of looking into a thing or entering into an object. Far from it! This concentration comes directly from the heart, or more precisely, from the soul.
We call it the soul's indomitable Will, or Willpower.

Tips & Comments
i wish i could download it ad take it anywhere i want on my ipod.. i wouldn't take the credits and post it to anywhere else.. if that's what they're trying to do.. :( too bad.. still, these videos are among my favourites.
it starts very well, but we need more towards the end. that drags. Also need more guidance and maybe a little direction to what we are supposed to be feeling. On the whole , Good. Thanks!
internet is doing a great thing to educate people about meditation........all people should meditate atleast 20 mins a day...............thank u videojug
Good, but I don't understand why they had such a long stretch at the end with the guy just looking like he needs a nap.
This video is helpful for focusing your thoughts. The focus is beyond the mind it seems. Jim
Check out J Krishnamurti . Be careful between concentration meditation which can be hypnotic and truely observing completely without falling into a thought.
change the old man with the young man/young girl

its really boring near the end they could have made it interesting
