We hear a lot about the benefits of meditation, and we know how indispensable it is for attaining Self-realization and spiritual liberation. And yet, it is so hard to control the mind. In the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna, the mightiest warrior of his time and the great devotee and friend of Lord Krishna, had the same problem. He felt that it is easier to control the wind than the mind.
In the Gita, Lord Krishna, full of compassion, is teaching Arjuna (and through him to us) how to meditate. He gives practical tips, techniques, and preparations that are required for success in meditation. He explains the importance of the renunciation of desires and the need for solitude. He describes the meditation seat and postures and how a moderate lifestyle is conducive to successful meditation. He emphasizes practice and dispassion and reassures us that no effort is wasted in the path of yoga. Finally, he shares the message that the greatest yogi, or meditator, is the Bhakta — the lover of God.
