How To Start Practicing Meditation

Fairly speaking, meditation does not owned or monopolized by one particular religion. What I am trying to say here, if someone practice meditation it doesn't mean that person has to be a Hindus or Buddhist or (worse perception) will be converted from one's religion ! It is completely has nothing to do with whatever your religion is but once again it is something to do with your mind.
How much is the cost to get our self start the meditation ?

1. Time/Schedule

Choose the most suitable hour for us and does not disturb our daily activities. How long
should the practice ? fifthteen minutes or one hour we decide it. If a fixed schedule has been set then we can expect meditation as part of our habit.

2. Place

We need a quiet place but doesn't mean it has to be in the jungle or top of the mountain. Anywhere will do as long as not too noisy. It can be an empty room or bedroom whichever is available. It is important at the beginning of the practice after all if we are about in a higher level we are supposed to be able to meditate everywhere. Meditation then become a twenty-four hours activity.

3.Meditation Teacher

Nowadays there are so many meditation teachers, the question is how can you find a good one ? If we can't find one, we can use books. There are plenty of good and free resources like here to start with.
