Acharya Prashant addresses the misconception that meditation is a means to increase concentration. He clarifies that the relationship is the reverse: concentration is a means to eventually become meditative. Concentration is defined as focusing the mind on a single object in the world, bringing scattered thoughts to one center. The task is to choose the right thing to concentrate on and fix the mind completely on it. The definition of the 'right thing' is that upon concentrating on it, you will no longer need to make an effort to concentrate; you will get lost in it. Concentration involves choice, intention, and initial effort, whereas meditation is the effortless state that results from concentrating on the right object. When the object of concentration is right, it acts as a doorway to something beyond, and you become absorbed in it. This state of meditativeness is where all distractions and their influence cease, and concentration becomes effortless. The speaker connects the Sanskrit words 'dheya' (goal) and 'dhyan' (meditation), explaining that by setting a worthy tangible goal in the world and concentrating on it, you can connect with an intangible reality beyond. If you find your mind wandering while trying to concentrate, it means either the object of focus is not right for you, or you are not approaching it from the right center. In such a case, either the object or the chooser must change. The only technique to improve concentration is to concentrate on the right thing. This object should be so beautiful, vast, and significant that it naturally commands your attention without needing any special method. You should find something you can fall in love with. Instead of seeking cheap tricks to concentrate on a cheap thing, one should have the courage to move forward and find what is truly worthy of attention. The speaker advises the questioner to focus on finding the right company, books, and causes to associate with. By concentrating on things that are genuinely worthy of your energy and attention, meditation will naturally and effortlessly enter your life.
