Here I'm going to tell you a secret about meditation. While meditation is generally considered beneficial for most of us, it may produce harmful effects, if done wrongly.
So don't start doing meditation before reading this article.
The secret about meditation that most people don't know is, "Meditation amplifies the energy you already have."
According to Shifu Shi Yanjun, the Shaolin Headmaster of the Temple "When the mind is strong and vigorous, meditation will amplify its power.
When the mind is weak and confused, meditation will amplify its illness."
It means when you are depressed, angry, afraid or lost, do not meditate because it may be detrimental in some cases.
So meditation is not something that will clear your all negative thoughts in few minutes. It actually amplifies the Qi (energy) inside the mind. Most people don't understand it and think of meditation as a purifier of thoughts. You need to understand that the process of meditation works in both ways.
Case studies done on many people have found that they meditated for months while being in depression and lost their mind completely.
Then what should you do in such negative mental states?
If you are full of negative emotions at a particular time, don't simply sit for meditation. It's not gonna help. It would actually worsen the situation.
It's the reason why psychologist don't recommend meditation for the serious patients of depression. Because depressed people have the tendency to think only the same thoughts of negativity when left alone or undisturbed.
So when you feel highly stressed, fearful or angry engage in some kind of vigorous training, hard work or exercise. You may play any outdoor game but don't sit idle.
By doing this your body will exhaust and number of random thoughts in your mind will go down drastically.
Later after rest, if you feel peaceful then you may try meditation.
Friends, I personally have met some of my friends, who were doing the same mistake of meditating in high stressful mental state and almost gone mad.
We need to understand that meditation is not helpful for everyone in every situation. It has its own limitations and if done wrongly can seriously harm you.
Please share this post widely, especially to those who not fit mentally and are dedicating their energy and time to meditation, hoping for positive outcomes.
