Explanation of Meditation Techniques-I
Explanation of Meditation Techniques_I
We categorized all the techniques of Basic Workshop(PTM Workshop-I) into three categories viz.Category I-A,Category I-B and Category II.
Category I-A mainly consists of some techniques related to breathing,Viz.
#OOM/OOM {Chanting of OM}
#BI:BO {Breathing in,Breathing Out}
#7:1::7:1
#B & N {Ballooning & Normalising}
#BtI {Breathing Through Infinite}
OOOM/OMMM: During this step OM,the name of almighty,is repeated loudly by all the members together.This step is further subdivided into two steps:-During the first step,AU(O) is loudly spoken 2/3rd of the time and MM is spoken only 1/3rd of the time , while during the second step,AU(O) is spoken only 1/3rd of the time and MMM is repeated 2/3rd of the time.While we repeat MMM with closed mouth,experience of Bhramari Pranayama is witnessed.In Fact,whole of the universe is said to be contained in the word OM.According to our Upanishads,word OM is said to be formed wirh the help of Hindi alphabets 'aa''uu'and'mm'(Small Matras).'a' stands for PARMATMA,'u'stands for JIVATMA and 'm' stands forPRAKRITI.Since this small word contains the whole universe,this is the most appropriate name of GOD.
BI:BO: During this step,you just have to be aware that you are breathing also.We are spending 24 hours of the day in attaining various goals, executing all our important tasks .But,in the process we forget the most important function of our body & that is breathing.We forget that if our breath stops,we will no more be part of this world,we will no more be part of this system.We will no more be an achiever,we will no more be a go getter.
So,you have to be aware of the most important function(Breathing) of our body at all times; while you are BREATHING IN and while you are BREATHING OUT(BI:BO) .You can achieve this awareness if You start practicing it during Meditation Sessions.To achieve this,during the second step of you Meditation practice,keep your eyes closed and Mentally repeat the following sentence again & again:
“BREATHING IN ,I KNOW I’M BREATHING IN;BREATHING OUT, I KNOW.”
Rest of the techniques of ‘category I-A’ viz.’7:1::7:1’,’B&N’ and ‘BtI’ will be explained in the next article.
