Buddhist meditation techniques for beginners

The apparent peace, the tranquility that Buddhists emit in meditation and during their daily activities seduce many restless beings who would like to know, like them, channel their energy to use it more effectively, rather than using it to reduce the excesses. With a little patience, it is quite possible, using Buddhist meditation techniques for beginners , to embark on this path and to quickly obtain amazing results.

Buddhist meditation techniques for beginners

What a banality to recall that Buddhists, even the most spiritually advanced, are only human beings! Yet this is what sometimes differentiates them, because they have understood and fully integrated it. They will not seek to progress faster than necessary, aware that they are resistance to change that sometimes presents human nature. They will also seek to integrate this nature in its entirety in their practice. If meditation will put mental effort on you to concentrate, remember that you are also a being of flesh, that your body is part of your person. Meditation must include it, make it work too.

Buddhist meditation can not be separated from the philosophical teachings. You only need a few of these ideas to get started. Meditation is a tool, not an end. It is a matter, as Buddha did, to reach a state of enlightenment and to grasp the truth of everything. In this regard, do not consider Buddha as a god. Original Buddhism saw him as only a human to take as a model. Having first lived in opulence, he tested the most severe asceticism, to finally see in the middle voice a path of wisdom. It is the excess that in everything is harmful. It is to consider only one aspect of his person at the expense of others that will lead you on a bad voice. You will need to take care of your body, not to abuse it by offering too much or too little. Keep in mind that meditation is a long way. You engage on a very long path, strewn with the pitfalls that you will sow, those therefore, which you will be able to triumph with your own resources, of the patience most often.

How to meditate as a Buddhist when you start?

Many techniques exist, the meditation on breathing is relatively simple, very accessible even to the great beginners in the field of meditation. Choose a position of lotus, half-lotus or, more simply, a posture sitting on a chair, feet flat, hands resting on the knees. Try to maintain only the tensions necessary for your position, the others are useless and they mobilize some of your energy for no reason. Once your position is stabilized and maintained with minimal effort, focus on your breathing. You must first make it more regular, deeper. Here again, it is the alliance of the body and the spirit that is at stake. The first one needs the oxygen that the breath brings him,

Once your position and your breathing stabilized, break it down. Concentrate on your inspiration, become aware of how the air walks in you. Hold your breath for a few seconds, without going to the discomfort. Charge the air of your lungs with everything that weighs you, your worries, your troubles, your worries. Then blow slowly, calmly, not letting this stale air of the body and mind escape but chasing it yourself, consciously and physically. Do not inhale right away, but again without the discomfort, hold your breath a little, leave your lungs empty for a few seconds. There is no emergency, you do not need to rush to fill yourself with air again as you constantly do for your mind with different concepts. Physical and spiritual emptiness is not mortal for anyone who knows how to use it with measure.

Throughout the meditation, you should not focus on anything other than your position and your breath, including when you hold it down to charge it. Do not be overwhelmed by your worries. It is your breathing that counts, inspiration, restraint, expiration, new restraint. Your position, it should not sag, deviate from the one you adopted at the beginning of your practice. The body naturally has a tendency to no longer wear, but you must make an effort of conscience not to let go, to discipline it. A bad position could indeed involve a bad breath, so a less pleasant and effective meditation. This school of gentle discipline is one that will allow you to be served by your mind, by your body, rather than to become the slave and to undergo them.
