Introduction

It is time to have a real talk about meditation and to learn what it means exactly to meditate. You might be on the beach, thinking that you just need to knock back a few margaritas and wave your fingers around your head in the V-gesture while saying, Peace, brother. Sounds corny and it is. Meditation has become a bit too clichéd, with all of the hype and it being so popular nowadays. So, with all that noise going on, it is difficult to truly understand and learn how to meditate correctly. But why is this even important?

Let's first see what meditation really is? How do you actually meditate? Do you really have to disguise yourself as some new-age spiritual evangelist by putting on white clothes, going around barefoot, denying yourself all material belongings and maintaining a saintly face all the time?

On the one hand, many people think that meditating is some sort of artsy-fartsy marketing scam, and on the other hand, that it is something only Buddhist monks do and, or something done by hippies on drugs who preach eternal peace and lovemaking.

Meditations is being able to observe your own thoughts and feelings without judging yourself for them. It’s not about ignoring your feelings and emotions, it is about you allowing yourself to have them without holding on to them, judging them or clinging to them, let them come in and out. Every time you realize you have gone away in a train of thought and shake your head and refocus your mind in what you are doing, then you are meditating, letting your mind refocus on the now and let thoughts go.

Buddha explained things better than me, so I refer to a Buddha story where he taught his student Ananda how the mind works and invited him to observe it.

"One day when they were walking through a mountainous region, Gautama Buddha, when he was older, told the disciple Ananda under the midday sun. I'm thirsty, when we crossed the mountains, we passed a stream, and can you go back and bring me some water?

Ananda, who respected his teacher, went back and reached the stream. But when he got there, he realized that some carriages had gone through it, damaging everything. The dead leaves that floated in the bottom were on the surface of the water and it was full of mud. The water was no longer drinkable and, of course, he could not take it to Buddha. Ananda decided to return to his teacher because he knew that a few miles beyond the place where they had stopped, a great river of crystal-clear water ran.

But when he saw Ananda, Buddha, who was very strict, told him to return to the stream again because he said I remember that when we passed that water it was pure and crystal clear. Annoyed, Ananda responded, I understand but in the meantime, since we arrived here, a carriage passed through the stream and the water is no longer drinkable.

I know, said Buddha, but go and sit on the shore for however long it takes.
