successive meditation...


(listen to the audio, view transcript below)

Successive meditation means it is not to meditate one hour in the morning, one hour in the evening–no, it is not that. Go on meditating day and night. Don't try to forget your meditation of thinking of the Lord, with breath. Go on watching your breath day and night. Try with all your might to watch. If sometime you miss, that doesn't matter. But it does not mean that you meditate only one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening, and in the remaining period you will go to activities and 'gup-shup' [gossip] and 'bakwas' [nonsense] and everything. Because that impression will be stronger, that impression will subside your abhyasa [practice]. Do you understand?
So you should not work in that way. Abhyasa [practice] is to start just like in chain form. Try your best that way.
