Free Your Mind Now

When people start practicing meditation, they often find themselves distracted by other thoughts.

Somehow, their shopping list (or whatever) crowds out their focus and the healing promise of a peaceful mind fades away into the background.

Then, they remember why they are there and abruptly focus back on the meditation. The question is, how can you gain enough focus and dedicated attention to go deeper into meditation?

As the old joke goes, a young musician traveled to New York City especially to see the world's top violin virtuoso perform at the legendary Carnegie Hall. Lost on the streets of New York and running late, he paused breathless, holding his precious violin case close to his body, and asked a senior gentleman on the street corner, "Can you tell me, please: How do I get to Carnegie Hall?" The wise-looking gentleman looked him in the eyes, thought for a moment, sighed deeply and replied, "Practice, practice, practice!"

And so it is with meditation... practice, practice, practice, except it's a lot easier!

As you practice, keep refocusing your mind whenever it wanders off, and always be patient with yourself when you do this. It is the nature of the conscious mind to wander off, so there is no point in feeling bad about it. Be kind to yourself always and nudge your attention back on-purpose whenever necessary. Be a detached observer and let thoughts pass by you just like passing clouds.

The other issue that people mention relates to feelings of self-worth. The phrase used in the Infinite Being Meditation, "I am Infinite Being", is an affirmation of your oneness with the consciousness from which all life sprang. Although it is said with the conscious mind, it is aimed at resonating with your soul being, which is attuned to the "I am" awareness of Source or Infinite Being.

If you find issues arising from this statement, such as feeling unworthy to be aligned with All That Is, then just let those thoughts go and bring your focus back to the phrase. You do not have to justify the words or settle any internal argument about them just because of some prior conditioning as to how someone has said that you "should" think in this life. The world is full of pressures for you to think like other people. Your soul knows the truth.

So, maintain the inner discipline to stay with the affirmation and let the issues fade away unchallenged. Your inner self knows the meaning of the words, "I am Infinite Being," and resonates in joy with their exact and literal truth. Every time you repeat this affirmation, you become more connected with Source. Any lesser thoughts then become healed in the light of the greater truth.
