How can Peace be achieved? When a person dies, he doesn’t have anything to acquire or lose, hence peaceful. The same way we have to train our mind to the level that we could understand whatever we are/want to acquire/lose is temporary and we have to focus on something which is permanent. Meditation can be a beautiful tool to train our brain to such level. Meditation as a tool: The best way of practising Meditation is to first silence yourself, sit in cross-legged posture with spine comfortably erect, keeping your arms upon thighs with palms facing upwards, eyes closed. One has to keep mild focus between two eyebrows for at least fifteen minutes twice a day to witness adventures of Meditation. Meditation won’t let desires drive us and destroy real motives of life. It empowers us to realize this beautiful quote, “Every second you throw away, every minute of every day, get caught in a myriad because life won't wait for you.” Meditation would not give happiness rather give us peace and takes us beyond time. It’s like a heavenly ray of light, neither getting reflected nor absorbed, just trapped inside us, acting as a lamp to guide us through the difficult path of darkness, until we met with enormous amount of light signifying our permanence dissociating us from all temporary evils i.e. happiness and sorrow, and we attain Nirvana. Why life is only on earth, why do we live, we die, why things are created if they ought to be destroyed. A myriad of such questions will only have answers when we understand what is permanent in the earth, what is permanent in us, can only be achieved by attaining Moksha.
