“The idea of bringing about such a fundamental change in ourselves may at first seem impossible, yet it is actually possible to do this through a process of discipline such as meditation. We choose a particular object, and then we train our minds by developing our ability to remain focused on the object. Normally, if we just take a moment to reflect, we will see that our mind is not focused at all. We may be thinking about something and, all of a sudden, we find that we have been distracted because somethings else came into out head. Our thoughts are constantly chasing after this and that because we don’t have the discipline of having a focus. So, though meditation, what we can achieve is the ability to place our minds and to focus our attention at will on any give object.”
