I am not the meditating type. My earliest memories of meditation involve my second standard PT teacher Mrs. Manacha who taught us yoga in our bloomers and asked us to open the ‘third eye in our minds’. But try as I did, all I ever saw in my mind was darkness. I remember giving up in frustration and feeling very unenlightened indeed. Since then, I have had a very banal view of meditation and becoming one with the ‘chakras’. Over the years, silence and not doing anything has never really been my thing. Therefore it surprises me that the last 2 months have all been spent in quiet reflection. I have realized that my form of meditation is best described as time I spend trying to solve a conundrum in my mind. Whether it’s a business problem, or a relationship niggle, thinking about it in a tranquil manner, free from distractions is something I enjoy quite a bit. The funny part? I think I do this even in my sleep sometimes.
