The minutes immediately after meditation are the most important moments of meditation because our thoughts can be at a higher vibration. In this time, we can set intentions. Metta or loving-kindness is a beautiful practice of sending good thoughts to other people. It is a very good way to end a meditation session, provided one's own mind has become peaceful. Some words that were used by the venerable teacher S.N. Goenkaji were "may all beings be happy, may all beings be peaceful."
One form of meditation is to observe your breath. "Ana-Pana-Sati" Lot of people practice this form of meditation, yet they don't feel calm. They easily get perturbed by the ups and downs of life.
Understanding meditation could mean knowing well what leads you forward and what holds you back. keep dwelling over it again and again. Use this knowledge for reaching out the path that leads to equanimity (calmness and composure especially in a difficult situation)
We can overcome fear and condemnation by meditating regularly
Meditation helps in recognizing the uniqueness, wonder, and beauty of our own being. It enables us to treat ourselves, others, and nature with consideration and care.
When we water plants, they turn into trees. These trees attract clouds, there is rain. A bucket full of water comes back in the form of rain. Sow a seed it comes back in the form of tons of grain. when a farmer cares for plants it grows, similarly, anything we give with love comes back in abundance.
Meditation teaches loving and caring.
