What Is Meditation Poem by Sumali Nagarajan
What Is Meditation
What is meditation
Just focusing of attention
Not actively thinking
Of life's distractions.
Even a game of chess
Is pure meditation
Planning 3 moves ahead
Requires immense calculation.
Isn't swimming
A form of meditation
Breathing in and out
Takes proper concentration.
Trekking to me is
A big attraction
Few hours of careful treading
A week of exhilaration.
Jogging is my
Daily meditation
Centered am I
In full occupation.
Small steps falling flat on the ground
Trying my best, not to make a sound
To me, its meditation
An uninterrupted conversation.
Chess, swimming, trekking, dancing, playing, cooking , uninterrupted conversation. all meditation. so nice a view of meditation. some think meditation is very hard. it is not so. agree with you. thank you dear poetess. tony
