There are many different meditation techniques, but all of them have one thing in common: they all cause you to become more self-aware, more watchful of your thoughts, feelings and physical sensations.

Some techniques are still: for example, you sit and watch your breath. Others are active, asking you to move, dance, make sounds, etc.

Perhaps the best thing to do is look around at different techniques and find one which "feels right." Then go ahead and try it for a few weeks.

Is it possible to actually meditate?

it depends on what you mean by meditate. But yes. Some monks master the art of meditation by learning to send themselves into a trance by hypnotising themselves. this is only one way, as others that practice meditation simply just 'clear their mind' which is debatable in the way that your mind is constantly in use.


Can you actually get superpower from meditation?

Meditation can make us realize the Truth. Meditation can make us experience God in the temple of our heart, meditation can make us activate our super conscious which can communicate with the universe. Therefore yes, meditation can create a power which can be considered as a super power. But that is not the purpose of meditation. People who are trying to find a super power are running an illusory race of achievement, and they will never attain any super power - ultimately they will suffer. The way to go beyond all this is to meditate to realize we are the Divine Soul, by contemplating the Truth. We should not strive to get power which we will finally leave behind, but to use the power within to become the Divine that we actually are.

How do you feel while meditating?

In many forms of meditation you are actually aiming to not involve yourself in the experiences of meditation. Meaning you try to just watch rather than engage in what you are feeling.Other meditation techniques are aimed at specifically creating particular psychological or physical sensations, in fact these 'feelings' are one of the ways you are able to judge your stage of development.Any reliable meditation teacher should be able to give you guidance on what form of meditation delivers what kind of 'feeling'.The best general advice I can think of is no matter what arises during your meditation try not to take seriously.
