The agitation of one person can be so forceful that not only his family gets affected, but entire neighbourhoods can become full of tension and distress.Such ugliness of the inner world manifests in our behaviour because of the imbalanced management of the senses. First of all, please practice balanced management of the senses. Then reduce the wavering nature of the mind by practicing concentration on one object. Don't let your mind wander. We do not know how to harmonize our thoughts. The flow of thoughts is continuous. We do not know how to employ them thoroughly either. Every moment, about 30 to 35 thoughts come and go. One thought is followed by a second thought; the second is followed by a third, etc. In a short time span many thoughts strike our minds, and if we do not regulate them properly, problems arise. By Preksha Meditation we learn the art of leading our thoughts in the right direction.
Often the question arises of why we should restrain our senses? Why should we try to make our mind stable? Why should we practice concentration? After all, what is the need? Life goes on anyway. There is no trouble in living life as it is. Then why take such pains? This is the leading view in our progressive world. Do we wish to remain on the level of sensual consciousness? Or do we want to reach the world that lies beyond the senses? The experience of the extra-sensory-world is completely different from that of sensual consciousness. Once the first experience of extra-sensory perception awakens in someone who then sees the first rays shine, he visualizes a new world.
