We take our body for granted all the time. When we are sick, weak and helpless, we prayed for speedy recovery. We even promised to ourself to exercise, quit junk food and adopt healthier diet. Most of the time, when we got better, we eventually forgotten these promises. Often commitments of our work, studies and other indulgences take priority over care for our mind, body and soul.
Without physical fitness and healthy functioning organs, our mental state would eventually suffer too. Meditation can be a quick check of the health of our mind, body and soul (MBS). It like going to the gym to workout our body. If we come out of the gym feeling terrible, its an indication of out lack of physical fitness. If we come out of meditation session feeling disturbed by the mental noises, it's an indication of the lack of mental fitness. A good mental state motivates us to eat right, do exercises and have a vibrant social activity.
If you have never meditated before, you probably would want to understand more and ask questions from what you heard about meditation. The problem is, many people spent too much time learning about meditation rather than trying to do it. The only way to learn to ride a skate board is to get on the board and learn as you practice. The same for learning to ride a bicycle. Nobody learns to ride a bicycle by reading a manual. The rest of this book will reveal many aspects of meditation that would help you to gain your own “balance and riding that skate board”. But we need to start doing it.
Let’s begin with our first session to center our mind. This is the foundation for all meditations to come.

19 Dealing with Separations and Death
Death is the most difficult of all separations. Whether its death of a pet, a friend, or a family member it affects us deeply because it is an ultimatum where they would never return, plus the uncertainty of where they went. To let go of our emotions, think of someone who has left us, we fill our memories of them with happy moments and good deeds that they have done, knowing that these thoughts will transfer bright energy to help them on their journey ahead. Think of good deeds you have done for others, and transfer the merits of your good deeds to those departed.

18. Ripples into infinity
We set goals and look for finite milestones in our journey in life. These milestones also trap us from being free to realise the infinite possibilities beyond our mindsets. Imagine the ripples on the pond created by drops of water from the leaf of a tree above. Each droplets strengthen the ripples, creating gentle waves that pushes further and further with one beginning and no ending.
