Sometimes it is necessary to take a break and sit back to think and meditate on some circumstances of life even before making an important decision is necessary to meditate on it.
Meditation is a practice in which the individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to achieve some benefit or to mentally recognize a content without feeling identified with that content, or as an end in itself.

Meditation is more known among Buddhists because the metitacion is a fundamental part of their daily lives, from small they teach them that meditation is the key to success and not the material or mundane success, is another more precious type of success the spiritual.
True Buddhists have a higher level of spirituality that no one can imagine, because they practice meditation as the main goal of life, their consciousness is totally elevated, their soul is totally pure and without evil.

There are spiritual retreats where the so-called Buddhists teach you the technique of meditation, that some will change their lives forever, not everyone is ready for the lifestyle of the Buddhas.
So some people only take it as practice to achieve their souls and it really works if you do it in the right way.
Do you know who was Buddha?
Siddhartha Gautama, better known as Buddha Gautama, Sakiamuni, or simply the Buddha, was an ascetic and wise person in whose teachings Buddhism was founded, he was born in the now extinct Sakia republic in the foothills of the Himalayas.
His ethics was based on 5 very simple steps:
♥ Do not steal.
♥ Do not lie.
♥ Do not kill or hurt another life.
♥ Abstain from harmful sexual behaviors.
♥ Do not consume substances that alter consciousness.
His teaching and life served as an example of many who still faithfully follow his steps
As a curiosity??
Did you know that a monk named Thich Quang Duc, 73 years old. He sat in his yellow robes, with his eyes closed and his legs crossed in the position of the lotus flower in one of the main avenues of Saigon, with the help of other monks he set himself on fire as a sign of protest. but it is said that it was because of the sexual enslavement of the South Koreans during World War II. The monk in a supernatural state did not move or complain while it burned, which contrasted with the prayers and sobs of the monks who accompanied him and who They were on their knees. After ten minutes of burning, the monk's burnt body fell and was wrapped by other monks in a saffron-colored robe and transferred to a nearby pagoda.
