Minute sensitive waves of our thought-current are constantly and habitually scattered and wasted in the outer directions towards the materialistic world, and are spent, absorbed and lost in materialism. These extroverted thought-waves have to be collected, concentrated and directed inwards to the source of all powers, i.e. our souls. This is practically a Reverse Process of mind from — habitual, unconscious process of extroversion in which we are
frittering away and spending up our latent inherent power and making our mind and body weak and exhausted to introspection, i.e., directing our thought-waves inwards by concentration, contemplation and meditation on Divinity — the source of all Powers.
By this Reverse Process, we conserve and strengthen our energy and augment our inherent power by contact with and reflection from the Omnipotent Divinity. This reverse Process of mind, called Meditation, has been defined and described in the past in numerous scriptures by Spiritual Masters, and various methods have been suggested and prescribed for its practice from time to time. The easiest process of meditation is to concentrate the mind on the
Divine Words, i.e. Gur-Mantar, and repeat it continuously for some minutes in the beginning. The duration of meditation should be increased gradually with practice. Sit in a comfortable posture in a reserved room, close your eyes and meditate at a fixed time regularly, both morning and evening, and also at any other available time during the course of the day; even during sleepless intervals of night. Keep reminding your mind to avail (take advantage) of all possible opportunities, without letting off a single one, in repeating the Gur-Mantar.
