When we close our eyes and start observing breath to meditate. intermittently various thoughts appear, many a time argument and counter-argument starts within ourselves. the moment we become aware of it, we try to stop them. These thoughts come and go, we are not to get involved with them. So it is a good practice to say--
" Yes I agree with everything that comes up in my practice"
A good way to introduce children to meditation is through games. Especially in the first seven years of their lives, children learn through imitation. If the adults are taking a minute to meditate, children will automatically start. Many families have a well-established practice of saying grace or thank you before taking a meal. Awareness can be included as part of this ritual as well.
Your best friend is always with you :). Connect with your breath and teach kids to do it too.
Every child deserves the gift of meditation. Among all the healing practices, it is the simplest. It is not a cure all for everything, but it is a must-have skill for children today.
After having attained higher degrees, Some people think that there is no need to learn anymore.
they have reached a barricade of no learning.
Meditation helps you to overcome this barricade and you continue to learn. There is no end to learning. Keep going

Piggy Tao is a wise and beautiful puppet. Parents use it (and other toys) to relate to children and teach them how to meditate. A puppet can be of great help in teaching and can make learning about meditation fun.
All parents say that their children love bed-time stories. If mindfulness can be made a theme in bed-time stories occasionally, children become more amenable to the idea of meditation.
Deep within the inner recesses of the being, resides the changeless part of us, the essence, the core, the soul. To be lost in its quest is meditation.

I think it means that your mind should become the meditation. Your day should become the meditation. Your action should become the meditation.
Once a large project or undertaking is over, it is natural to feel empty. It may be after a major goal has been accomplished, or a long journey or a sudden reduction in responsibilities on retirement or when a child leaves for college. In such times, it is natural to feel empty and we generally fill this emptiness by turning to food, television or other substitutes that do not serve us when consumed in excess.
If one's meditation practice is strong enough, it is better to sit in meditation. The feeling of emptiness soon passes. Leaving us in the emotional space to pick up a more wholesome next step. Meditation is a long term investment in emotional stability. It takes many years, perhaps life times, but it is worth it. It is a very important skill for human beings.
