The mind needs to quiet down!!

(Sadhguru)
If you just close your eyes, and watch your mind for a few moments, you will realize, what kind of mind is that?
Am I crazy or something? Thousands of things are happening and that's twenty-four hours working day after day, from cradle to grave, nonstop. It's a very tiring and exhausting process, but you don't know how to turn it off.
Meditation simply means the art of turning it off. It's very simple. It's as simple as turning on and off the lights.

When electricity was first discovered, a friend of Sigmund Freud came to visit him, was a farmer, came from a distant village. He had heard about electricity, but he had not seen it.
At night, when Sigmund Freud left him in his room, and asked if he needed anything, he said: No, everything is perfectly fine, I do not need anything, thank you! You can go to sleep.
Freud went to sleep, and the man was lost, not knowing what to do with the electricity, because he had no idea there was a button, all he knew were lamps.
So he tried, every possible way to blow her, was so far from the ceiling that he stood on the bed but was still far away. So he dragged a table over the bed, and stood on the table and tried for real, looked from all sides; there doesn't seem to be a single hole!
And what to do with this electricity? And how can one sleep with so much light? All night he turned and shook, repeatedly trying this way and that, but nothing helped.
He was feeling sick of waking Sigmund Freud and asking him, and it also seemed humiliating, that you don't know such a simple thing!
In the morning when Freud asked: You look very tired, what's the matter? He said: I have never been so tired in my life, and I have to ask, I can no longer contain this: What is the secret of this light? How to turn it off? And Freud said, Why didn't you knock on my door? It's so simple! And showed him the button. And the man said, This is strange! I could never have imagined that right behind the door was a button, I never saw anything like that!
Meditation is a very simple process: all you need to know is the right button!
The Upanishads call witnessing the right button!
Just witness the process of your mind, do nothing, nothing needs to be done, just be a witness, an observer, a bystander, looking at the mind's traffic, passing thoughts, desires, memories, dreams, fantasies.
Just keep your distance, calm, watching it, seeing it, without judgment, without saying it's good or bad. Do not bring your moral concepts, otherwise you will never be able to meditate.
That is why I am against the so-called morality, it is anti-meditation! Because a so-called moral person is so full of her moral ideas, duties and prohibitions that she cannot attend, she jumps to conclusions; This is not right, and this is right!
And everything she feels is right, she wants to cling to it, and everything she thinks is wrong, she wants to throw it away, she jumps between thoughts, starts fighting, grabbing and that's where she loses it all. the testimony. Witnessing simply means an observation detached, unprejudiced, this is the whole secret of meditation. It's simple! Once you get the hang of it, it's the simplest thing in the world! You knew it in your mother's womb, so it's just a rediscovery. Meditation is not something new, you had come with her to the world, just reconnect!

Bem vindo ao blockchain do Steem! Mando um salve aqui de São Paulo/SP.

Tem algumas coisas desatualizadas mas se precisar existe tb o wiki Steem.center com a tradução do FAQ e guias para iniciantes. Sucesso e boa sorte mais uma vez!!
