The principle of the meditation practice is to make the mind with single thing to know and make the mindfulness with single thing to recall, such as make the breathe in and out as the thing for the mind to know and keep the consciousness focuses on the breathe in and out. It will make you aware of the changes in the breath, which will cause consciousness and meditation. Another method is the way of meditation by chanting the Buddhist prayer. It means reciting some prayer words such as "buddho" when inhaling pray the word "Bud" and when exhaling pray the word "bho" chanting in this way until the mind is calm and then meditation will occur.
