True and that is the whole concept of meditating throughout the day. <BR/><BR/>But as Prabhu rightly put, there are handful of people who are actually in that state. Most often than not, our mind is not still. It starts moving back and forth trying to evaluate what we are doing. It either goes into the future, thinking about the result or it goes into the past searching for what went wrong or right previously. That is when we have slipped out of meditation or whatever word you want to call it.<BR/><BR/>Meditation is nothing but "being aware of what you are doing and being in the present moment" and if you are able to do it while you are at work, then good. <BR/><BR/>Also remember, when you consciously are aware of everything you do, you go inward. The two happen together. Only when you are completely within yourself, at your core can you be meditating when you work etc. Else we are only fooling ourselves to be.<BR/><BR/>Normally, at work or whatever one does, our energies are concentrated towards external work. Isn't it? Our intellectual mind is still working on the external work. And however much we would like to call that meditation, where the mind operates, meditation NEVER happens.<BR/><BR/>So, setting aside half an hour for meditation just helps you to give an appointment for your SELF what you called as individual energy in your comment. You cannot touch your the core of your individual energy as long as your intellect falls in the way, as long as your mind exists. Your mind has to drop and that is possible by looking into yourself and meditation does help in that way. <BR/><BR/>In Nithyananda<BR/>ArpananandaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380160059611649705.post-4624987839320990752007-12-18T11:03:00.000+08:002007-12-18T11:03:00.000+08:00hi prabhui m jo..yes i do agree that meditation is...hi prabhu<BR/><BR/>i m jo..yes i do agree that meditation is wen there is awareness...let me make my previous comment more clear.."may be they still have to recognize"..i meant that they are actually in that level of energy.. just that they have a different name for it other than Meditation....after all that word 'meditation' or any other form of it in any other language was created by us only!!!! i believe that everyone who does watever wholeheartedly is actually meditating..just that they have their own name for that feeling...i call it ENERGY..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380160059611649705.post-38107772229797270572007-12-18T01:40:00.000+08:002007-12-18T01:40:00.000+08:00Dear Anonymous...May be you are unique.

Please continue meditating...<BR/><BR/>For those who aren't aware* that they can meditate (or are currently meditating) while doing their daily chores, then for them, it's better to set some time, say half an hour, to consciously meditate. Once your awareness increases, you will know how to meditate even outside of this stipulated half an hour.<BR/><BR/>*NOTE: If you aren't aware that you might be meditating during your other activities, then it means you aren't. Meditation is when there is awareness.<BR/><BR/>In Nithyananda...prabhu.i.amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779750277866157909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380160059611649705.post-6140710592888605402007-12-17T23:48:00.000+08:002007-12-17T23:48:00.000+08:00i really don't feel that there is a time which we ...i really don't feel that there is a time which we have to take off for meditation...i dunno what it is for all those people who have given excuses but for me meditating is everything that i do ... it be my work my responsibilities my relations...MAY BE even those people specified above meditate every second doing what they want and just that they still did not recognize their meditating ability..."Theres a time for everything" don't take it literally...it just means that the frequency of nature's energy and an individual's energy has to flow in a perfect SHRUTI and then the energy will tell him WHAT HE IS AND WHY HE IS HERE...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380160059611649705.post-40330751715527247032007-12-11T02:05:00.000+08:002007-12-11T02:05:00.000+08:00Nithyanandam Anupsar...You tend to say, Ignorance ...Nithyanandam Anupsar...<BR/><BR/>You tend to say, Ignorance is bliss, and let existence show the way! <BR/><BR/>Surely, existence will show the way, but its gonna be the hard way!

All what kids are trained is to study hard to <BR/>get that dream job(again what parents want them to be) and get married ... rest of the story is untold and if someone tells them, <BR/>u will take rebirth -- thats it, he is insane :) <BR/>It is just the ignorance, people don't want to know... the rest is just words. But existence has its way for <BR/>each so doesn't mean that it is anything wrong --- Let it be -- like we had dinosaurs , and now there is humans and existance has its<BR/>plan for each and every element in it -- flow with it, let it be natural for each of us .... bud, flower and then fruit :)Anupsarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463857911416024697noreply@blogger.com
