          Here is a brief description of meditation, that is the way to develop mental collectedness, It is prescribed in the text that for developing collectedness of mind one should seek a suitable place which is not subject to noise and distrubance. A quiet place in a forest, at a foot of a tree or in a quiet building is suitable for a purpose. The intention is to find any reasonable peaceful place. One should then go there and sit down with legs crossed, traditionally with the right foot on the left foot, hands are put on the lap: the right hand placed on the left hand. the body should be straight. One may, however, sit with one's legs folded to one side,etc. This is up one's comfort and ease. One should then close the eyes and collect one's faculties together and be aware of the touching sensation of the breath. One can know whether the breathing is in or the breathing is out. If it should be asked where one should be aware oneof this breathing in and out, the answer would be that and easy sport where one can be aware of this the outtermost point of one's nostrils or the upper lip which the air touches on being breated in, The inhaled air touches outermost points of the nostrils or the upper lip while the abdomen expands, and the exhaled air touches at the same sport when the abdoman contracts. Easily feel the air which goes in from the tip of the nostrils to the abdomen which expands, and feel the air going out from the contracting abdomen to the of the nostrils. First get to know the process of breathing in and out as described above. In breathing in the breath starts from the nostril covities and goes to the swelling abdomen: and in breathing out the breath leaves the contracting abdomen and flows to the tip of the nose. This is known as the path of the wind (namely the breath)......
