Frequently Asked Questions

What is meditation?
Meditation is a practice of focused awareness and observation. It involves turning attention inward to observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations without being controlled by them. While often associated with relaxation, meditation's deeper purpose is self-realisation.
How do I start meditating?
Start by sitting comfortably, closing your eyes, and observing your breath. Don't try to control anything — just watch. Start with 10 minutes daily and increase gradually. Consistency matters more than duration.
