Try it! > ******************* Naturally you have completely misunderstood what MMY said, which has nothing to do with the effort of focusing the mind, but on simply living with a peaceful mind: MMY's Gita commentary, Ch II, v. 66 "If the mind is more steady, it is in a better position to experience greater happiness. As on a calmer surface of water the sun reflects more clearly, so a calmer mind receives a clerer reflection of the omnipresent bliss of the absolute Being. As the mind fathoms finer fields of thinking during meditation, the metabolism is simultaneously reduced. This establishes the nervous system in degrees of ever-increasing peace. Eventually, when the entire nervous system comes to a completely peaceful state, it reflects Being, and this gives rise to bliss- consciousness....Absolute bliss being always there, the experience of happiness thus depends upon the degree of steadiness of mind. If the mind is more collected, more peaceful, it experiences more happiness." ------------------------ Yahoo!
