      Nishant Nandan Mishra Cheers for this, been searching for "what should i think about during meditation" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ganlizabeth Preliminary Genie - (do a search on google )?
      It is a good one off product for discovering how to get abundant success using meditation without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my partner got excellent results with it.

    I have practiced meditation for most of my life and i dont go on social media unless i have to, i try very hard to not compare myself, i dont hang around with people who are not good for me and even though i get stressed i can sort my own problems out by sitting quietly for 20 mins every few days.

    The single most important tip is stop trying to control the mind, the mind has a life of its own. The day you realize that your mind thinks for itself it will be one of the most eye opening experiences in your life . That’s how you know you did transcendental meditation . Just make sure your not high so you won’t be confused as to did that really happened or was it the drugs
