Meditation in progress ... : P

It has been a while since I got interested in MEDITATION. What I hope to achieve is to be able to relax my always busy mind and so that I can have a better rest whenever I need one. This is my initial aim at first. I have then tried meditation on my own (after reading some meditation books) and also registered for a mediation course of 6 months. After trial and error with the books that I have read and also guided by the Teacher (a monk), I think I have gained some grounds of a beginner for meditation practice. With this new 'hobby' that I have picked up recently, I find that I have less time for my other hobbies, as well as I also more health conscious to take some time to jog or play badminton.

Well, after I have done some reading before I attend the meditation course, at least I can understand better and appreciate some facts but still, it is not the same as practice. Meditation is like a skill which gets better with every practice. Just reading on it would not achieve anything. There are many benefits for anyone who meditates, such more healthy, more aware or mindful about the things happening around me and best of all, to calm my restless mind. The mind is a facinating thing. It does not want to rest and likes to wander or create new thoughts, like an untame animal. Once it is tamed then we can gain the benefits through meditation and also inner peace and true happiness, as they say...

I also kept a journel for my meditation which only updates when I go for the meditation course. However, I do update it when I have anything to add in it. May update more when I got the time to do it in this blog.

Update on my PDA stuff

I have got a new leather flip wallet for my PDA now. It also comes with a clip to hold on the belt. I have also got myself a 2 GB SD Kingston Elite Pro (50X) card to boost my memory card capacity and use it as a 2 GB thumbdrive at the same time. : ) Looks like I would not be getting anymore gadgets from a while. : )
