The Imaginative World Of Meditation

By Animesh Upadhyay

Om Namah Shivay(chanting), God as per your blessings I have become the best engineer and have built magnificent architectures, with your grace I have earned handsomely and have been living a dream life. Thank you, God, for your blessings. ( Talking with Shiva (God))

Shiva: Wake up to reality son!

All of a sudden I felt something cold on my hand (my own drop of sweat had fallen on my hand) and I opened my eyes to the systematic chaos that had been going on around me. No, I have not been dreaming, I was just dealing with this chaos in my own way. Everyone has a way of dealing with this systematic chaos, and I meditate. Some of us have become so accustomed to this chaos that we have adjusted our breathing according to it, and some of us are drunk with its side effects and just trying new things to get sober.

The chaos I am talking about is college placement. Yes, college placement! If you are laughing at this right now, you have not had this drink yet or you have been the lucky ones not to get a taste of it. Because believe me there is no gin and tonic in this world that gives you a hangover like this one. As I was saying I meditate to calm my nerves and to handle the pressure, but meditation is different for each individual. Some try to concentrate their thoughts towards the one true lord, I do that too but I often get lost in the trance of my own world, an imaginative and creative world and a world that is away from this systematic chaos.

It might not be how the meditation should be done, but if it does stop my feet from dancing out of nervousness, then I am doing something right.

But aren't you taking yourself away from reality instead of facing it head-on? ( asked the podcast anchor )

Well meditation is a part of your manifestation of how the world should be and that puts your mind to ease and

..... ( hears a loud voice from the distance and I open my eyes, it is your turn( the teacher screaming from the distance))

With a smile on my face, I say to myself looks like I was meditating again...
