Meditation

Meditation means mind development through concentration and mindfulness, thus understanding the true existence of the mind, body and all phenomena. There are different types of meditation, e.g.Zen meditation, Vipassana meditation, etc. The sustained application of self-observation and understanding through meditation will heighten self-awareness and purify our mind, cultivating true insight wisdom. This purified and equanimous mind will bring harmony and stability to the society, hence true peace and happiness to the world.
