At the outset, it is hard to keep your attention focused on one object.

So it is better to start by limiting your field of concentration to a category of objects. 

Choose your objects with care e.g. any four flowers, fruits, trees...etc. You must feel at ease with what you choose. 

After concentrating on one, you can move on to the next, if & when your mind starts wandering.

Have a specific place and  time for meditation. Try doing it daily. 

Choose a time when your mind is not clouded with worries. 

Sit up straight with your back, neck and head in one line, facing north or east. 

Condition your mind to remain quiet for the duration of your meditation session. 

Regulate your breathing. Start with 5 minutes of deep breathing. Then gradually slow down. 

Follow a rhythmic breathing pattern - inhale and exhale. 

Initially let your mind wander. It grows more restless if you force concentration. 

Then slowly bring it to rest on the focal point of your choice. 

Hold your object of concentration at this focal point throughout your session. 

Meditation happens when you reach a state of pure thought, even while retaining an awareness of duel self. 

Follow this diligently and you will soon be able to attain a super-conscious state.
