Meditation: A Gateway Outside Reality

Life always creates different images and different issues in the mind of a human. Inside the mind everything may happen. Fantasies, dreams, problems and many others, they always consume a large space in the cradle of the mind: the thoughts. Many self-improvement books teach that success is first conceived in the mind. There are many testimonies of excellent and successful persons that prove this testimony. This is why people must understand the fabulous power thinking can bring. This power of the mind can be harnessed through the practice of meditation.

Meditation can be defined as setting all your thoughts into the neutral realm and letting it roam. But there is another meaning of meditation, and that is putting your focus into something. The secret of a triumphant meditative session is pouring your best effort to reflect on something. The good news is that something can be any image, sound, smell, idea, or object that motivates you. Inside our meditation arena, no one can dictate what someone wants to create or who he wants to see. These include the things we hope for and the life we dream of. In this effect, meditation paves a way outside the reality created by the outside world. What occurs in the external environment of the mind may be drastically altered in well-focused thoughts. During the meditation, we eagerly conceive and perceive the things that we want to focus on. This is the secret of meditation, which gives way to the secrets of success.

This is why many people reach their goals despite the trials and problems the world brings to them. It is because they already meditate beyond what the reality dictates. Meditation which serves as a gateway outside reality preserves the self-esteem, the self-image and the dreams a person has. The deepest desires are brought forth and are given the opportunity to be actualized through the powers of meditation.

In conclusion, meditation indeed serves as a portal outside the real world, but still we should not forget that the success after our meditation depends on the genuine and diligent practice of meditation for the right purpose. Meditation should not be the only means to achieve success. It is a tool that should be used with the best of intentions. Meditation provides benefits of physical and mental health that further help you attain what you want in life.

Keep in mind, the state of meditation is only a temporary escape from reality. As one removes himself from the meditative state, he becomes more capable of facing the challenges offered by the external world. Always remember how powerful the human mind is, and how more powerful it can become if given the right motivation to work. Think of all the other physical benefits and spiritual gifts that meditation opens up for your life. These can all be achieved if you are willing to receive them. You can gain the most from meditation and the power of the mind. All you need to do is to make the decision.
