Taming your five senses

Most people who meditate correctly are in better control of their desires and senses. By senses one means sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. Have to ever thought what is good for your senses ans does it really matter.

It is logical that if you have no control over what you download into your computer, you will soon have some nasty viruses on your system trying to shut it down. Similarly our body also need to distinguish what it wants to take in based on its goodness and utility. Whatever one sees...hears...smells..tastes gradually creates a memory in the mind for future use. Now think how much potential harm can it do if one is not careful. A very simple example is watching TV. It is passive information and your mind is accepting it all the time without any filters. It is creating a memory. With millions of people watching TV are we not creating a society with some very wrong and negative downloads.

Meditation is one very effective way to keep your senses in your control so that you decide what to download. A positive song about mind, body, soul , life, planet etc is always welcome. Next time you like some music make sure it is feeding positive energy and thoughts into your system.

Why should you meditate?

Meditation is nothing new to this planet. Infact it is the lost art of connecting your soul with the universe. Thousands of years ago it was a well known art and practised thoughout various cultures to acquire self knowledge for upliftment of the soul.

Now the question is whether it is relevent to modern society? If one knew the actual mechanism of how it works one would ask such a question. With the human mind getting stressed with career, relationship problems, health , meditation is more than relevant to current society. a lot of people are reaping the benefits of meditation and changing their lives everyday. You can too!
