The Benefits Of Enhanced Concentration

By practicing SOS Meditation for an hour or two every day, we will find great rewards and benefits. First, our concentration naturally improves. By meditating, we develop more sustained concentration. This can be applied to our work lives. We can use our concentration to develop our intellectual faculties. We have an increased attention span which will help us learn and absorb more information. While most people are so distracted that they only absorb partial information from what they read and hear, meditation helps us absorb more and retain more.

This increase in concentration will help us achieve success in our worldly activities. A natural by-product is that we will be more efficient and more productive in our places of work. I have personally seen people suddenly shoot up to the top of their fields after practicing meditation for a number of years. They soon outshine the other employees because of their increased concentration. They produce more in less time than those who have not developed the art of concentration. Meditation helps students excel in their studies. Students are also able to concentrate longer and retain more information. Again, I have seen many young people who have been practicing meditation rise to the top of their class. We all know that those students who do well will be in a better position to attain the best jobs and career opportunities.

There is yet another aspect of meditation which will have untold benefits in our lives. As the soul experiences its relationship with God it has a great realization. It sees all living things, whether human, animal or plant, as a part of God. It sees that there is a soul in every living thing. Once we experience that we are all a part of God, we begin to see God’s Light shining in all. This is a profound realization that brings about fundamental changes in the way we live. We develop love for everyone and every living creature. We begin to love all people equally and consider them part of our own family. We develop tolerance and patience towards those around us. We develop the sublime qualities of compassion and understanding. We want to help others in need. A great transformation takes place in us, and we radiate love and sympathy to everyone around us.
