How To Meditate: Part 4
The title of Part 4 is "Why do we mediate?” Spiritual teacher Sri Chinmoy explains and demonstrates. Here is the full text of this episode: "We meditate because this world of ours has not been able to fulfil us. The so-called peace that we feel in our day-to-day life is five minutes of peace after ten hours of anxiety, worry and frustration. We are constantly at the mercy of the negative forces that are all around us: jealousy, fear, doubt, worry, anxiety and despair. These forces are like monkeys. When they get tired of biting us and take rest for a few minutes, then we say that we are enjoying peace. But this is not real peace at all, and the next moment they will attack us again. It is only through meditation that we can get lasting peace, divine peace. - Produced by www.srichinmoy.tv. More facts about Sri Chinmoy on his main website: www.srichinmoy.org

Why do we meditate?
We meditate because this world of ours has not been able to fulfil us. The so-called peace that we feel in our day-to-day life is five minutes of peace…after ten hours of anxiety, worry and frustration.
We are constantly at the mercy of the negative forces that are all around us: jealousy, fear, doubt, worry, anxiety and despair.
These forces are like monkeys. When they get tired of biting us…and take rest for a few minutes, then we say that we are enjoying peace.
But this not real peace at all, and the next moment they will attack us again. It is only through meditation that we can get lasting peace, divine peace.
