What is meditation?
The answer is simple. Meditation in hindi or sanskrit means simply "Dhyana." That is, deep awareness with caring and responsibility, not negligence of anything in life. A Meditator is aware day and night of everything he does, in detail. Although, you must take it lightly too sometimes.

Meditation brings out the deep feelings in you, so that you love and live every moment fully. One must not be half alive, irresponsible of every step, not be only theoretical, a thing that never lives. When we practically experience or feel the moment, we are living. So we have to go beyond our brains and follow brains made of feelings and practical and daily life experiences as well. A life without full-fledged feelings, deeply understanding seriously (this is true love lives.) Feeling fully, enjoying and fulfilling, heartwise mostly, every moment of life. You drink in life's every moment fully, being fully sane ('hosh'), making no mistake. Mistakes are due to ignorance and lack of self-knowledge. So, meditation makes you watch every though within yourself, which is a very blissful exercise, awakening your awareness. After that, meditation will help you and follow you through till the next time, till the next meditation span.
