Meditation is a way of cultivate the mind and making it work in a systematic way.  Buddhist meditation techniques encourage, cultivate concentration, clarity, good feelings, and a peaceful awareness of the real nature of things. By practising with a particular meditation you learn the patterns and behaviours of your mind, and the practice offers a means to cultivate new, more positive ways of being. Such experiences can be transformative and lead to a new understanding of life.

By practising the mind in a disciplined way, the inner life becomes pure. As the inner self gets purified, it gradually becomes healthy. Accordingly you will get used to living happily with courage and strength. You can get all these by uplifting the mind.

The Buddhist tradition teaches various meditation practices, or “mind-training,” but the foundation of all of them is the cultivation of a calm and positive state of mind. Historically, there are basic meditations first taught by Gautama Buddha that help cultivate calmness and emotional positivity: the Mindfulness of Breathing and the Metta Bhāvanā meditations.

Lord Buddha’s teaching, especially the meditation method he taught, can completely remove the mental burdens and create peace and tranquillity. The word Dhyana was originally given as bhavana that means to practise or develop, i.e. to practise the mind or develop the mind.

Its purpose is to purify the mind from disturbances, to remove the mental disturbances. That is, getting rid of things that can be caused by lust, enmity, laziness, anxieties, doubts and doubts and instilling in the mind mental suppression, awareness, prudence, determination, motivation, investigation faith, joy and peace and attaining Yatabhuta Jnana i.e. the maturity to know what is as it is, and as a result of that, fulfilled. It is also the attainment of Nirvana.
