But anybody who had tried the above techniques or similar techniques no how difficult it is. It is easy said than done. This way you have to at least meditate for 1-2 hours at the start.

Since we all are living in society there are much more distractions than someone living in a hermitage. These methods are more suitable for hermits living far away and who had given up social life and has no distractions for that matter.

Then what is the best way for people like us to meditate?

In my experience the most effective meditation technique for laymen like us is to listen to a Brainwave Entrainment program. This is the shortest cut for people living in society like you and me and who wants to get all the benefits that meditation has to offer.

Brain wave training is the easiest and most effective way to achieve fast results with the least time and least expense. Actually what meditation does is, it reduces your brain wave frequency to alpha or theta and sometimes to delta.
