How to concentrate 1. Do one thing at a time 2. Practice it 3. Finish what you started 4. Understand the mind, learn how mind works. Once you know how the mind works you can control it and once you can control it you can focus it

They are, but as a Hindu and growing up India I can tell you I was never taught all this. Nor were any of my peers or friends. Indians are the most distracted and depressed people on the planet. I truly believe we have missed the mark of what was important because our culture is so full to the brim with various distracting practices, dieties and mantras. The Buddhists took out the core of what was important in this. Then they too got distracted with a lot of variety. The Shaolin monks and Zen seem to be the best. They remained concentrated on what was important in the end. The Chinese are much better at concentration and daily practice than arguably anyone in the world.

Dandapani - The God who rules the Tamils. Om Muruga 🙏

When someone speaks so clearly and eloquently, logically meeting all points of a topic and making it crystal clear and easily digestible to an audience, that itself is an impressive indication of their ability to concentrate. When you’re mentally aligned so staunchly to exactly what you wish to convey without even sub-moments of distraction, you’re naturally creative, funny & engaging and at the peak of your eloquence and intelligence. In a way, I even think intelligence is simply a measure of your ability to concentrate. Why is that geniuses just shut themselves up and intensely focus on one thing they do for an extended period of time? It is a way of incubating their awareness on an object of study for so long that it yields unbelievable, magical results utterly incomprehensible to the average mind. Yogis of the past really had it right in ancient India to develop droves of methods to articulate this lost art. Each breathing/kriya practice is engineered to center your mind and preciously improve what is termed ‘intelligence’ in today’s day and age. Sadly this knowledge is now horribly fragmented and known minimally, the mainstream still believing yoga to be a fitness & lifestyle gimmick to their pretense-filled, exterior life. The seriousness and grand scale of this topic is so underrated and grossly under-understood, I think it’s real time to reveal it’s true meaning and application to the deteriorating state of human affairs.

@Mayur Kanth few things 1. I don't believe that Buddha was ever a hindu but their tribe lived in part where the culture is inclined to Ancient Hinduism. 2. I didn't say vedic knowledge and hindiusm are related. Maybe at that time when people were saying ram and krishna there were people who still opposed the ideas of greater beings. 3. If vedas were written form, that means that Buddha is older than the vedas themselves. Because at the time of buddha pali was not developed in written form. Only after many years did Ashok wrote in brahmi lipi. Possibly sanskrit also didnt exist at that time

hinduism told this earlier when buddhism was not even born

Video summary: The art of concentration is keeping your awareness on one thing for an extended period of time. Repeatedly bringing it back to that one thing when the mind gets distracted. We practice this by doing one thing at a time throughout the day. When you have a conversation with someone, keep your “ball of awareness” fully focused on that person. It drifts away, you bring it back, if it drifts away again, you bring it back. Over and over. The more you practice this, the better you will be able to concentrate. Life is a manifestation of where your energy is flowing. The benefits of being in full control of where your energy and awareness is flowing are endless. Other notes: Most people can't concentrate today for 2 reasons: 1) We're never taught how to concentrate. 2) We don't practice concentration. Instead, we're experts at distraction because we practice distraction, all day every day. If every time your phone beeps and you react/respond immediately, you are not in charge of your phone, and you are living in the world of distraction. To learn how to properly concentrate you must understand the relationship and distinction between 2 things: awareness, and the mind. Too often we allow external factors to manipulate our awareness to different areas of the mind.

It was the greatest video I ever watched on Focus. Hindu scriptures are soo good in almost evey area🛕🔱

“Do one thing at a time and while doing it put your whole soul into it to the exclusion of all time.”

And that’s some really good piece of distra- nah, knowledge I would love to pay my internet bill for.

I like the analogy of a ball and on a surface for awareness and mind. I'm really grateful to learn this knowledge and also love the note that life is a manifestation of where your energy is flowing. Now I will need to be confident to find where my passions are and practice concentration because that's where I want my energy to flow! I also remember one day I joked with a friend on a difficult subject or major he took upon, but what he said shocked me a lot, and still keeps echoing in my head: "It's not that hard if you pay enough attention". I was touched by this attitude and also felt different. It is a very powerful, inspiring yet encouraging statement that I kept in my mind. Hope ones who see this comment be happy and successful in your life. Good luck my friends!

7:45 "the first thing I learned when I went to the monastery was to learn 'how the mind works.' because once you know how the mind works you can control it, and once you know how to control it you can focus it. you can't focus or concentrate something that you don't understand." "from the monk's perspective, there are two things you need to understand; one is that there is awareness and the other is the mind. imagine awareness as a glowing ball of light. Now imagine your mind as a vast space, with many different sections with many different areas within it (one area of the mind is jealous, joy, science, art..etc.) this glowing ball of light called awareness can travel within the mind and can go into any area of the mind it wants to. when it travels and lights up those areas of the mind, it becomes conscious of them, individually." "each day we allow someone or something to take our mind throughout the day from one area to another. when we allow that to happen it's called a distraction." this was an amazing talk. hopefully, in one year I can become more aware of my actions and learn how to concentrate further on what I want to achieve in my life...thanks TedX and Dandapani.

The realistic advice I've ever had, this teaches "how" and not "what" to do. You can clearly understand, your problems and then now I know where to start to change about myself. Thanks to this video it is really worth it to watch.

This was enlightening. I have partially taught myself to concentrate already but through much force of effort; having a lesson plan / lecture (this video and others like it) makes for a fantastic resource to remind myself how it is done and how one should do it and how one recognises that one is doing well.

I rarely ever add public comments(I think this is my third one) but, this is exactly what I needed. So very, VERY beautiful, and easy to understand at the same time-Thank You!

There are many good studies for 50 years on multitasking. [Google it] tl;dr 1. only a tiny percentage of people may actually multitask. 2. It is bad for your brain or productivity even if you can do it. 3. Up to 650 BILLION in the US is lost annually because of workplace multitasking. // It is mostly self-deception. In truth, 99% of people cannot multitask at all, but rather just (inefficiently) switch A to B to C. Conclusion: Break one big task or project into small parts, and these into simple components. Do one tiny component after another, in some structural order. Concentrate on one thing simply until complete, then go on to the next... Simplify. Elevate!

Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, may all your dreams come true, may you be successful in all spheres of life, stay safe and have a wonderful day :)

Had watched this video long time ago and it helped me relax. I had to come back to it today. Concentration is indeed very necessary. Mastering it is far much important. This video is great

Best video ever on understanding our mind, its awareness, focus and concentration... Life changing little video! Practice it 🙂

I respect this teacher BLESSINGS SIR om namah shivaya 🕉🙏 🙇‍♀️ 🕉🕉🕉🕉 🙏🙏🙏

This was really Mind Blowing. He explained us in a way that will stay in our awareness all throughout this lifetime. Great Man with Massive Aura.

This Tedtalk has changed my life. I have come here second time after experiencing the enormous change it brought. THANKYOU DANDAPANI. FOREVER GRATEFUL TO YOU♥❤

you see this is noway related to religion... monkhood is all about renouncing including your religion too and religion is just the geographical identity and majority of the population has misconceptualized religion.. so for guys stop relating everything to religion...

Nivedita Kashikar​ Sir you are correct. I do not share the same faith as you but as God is my witness you have spoken the truth. Some people blame EVERYTHING on something or someone when a matter goes beyond their compression. Religion is the most common since it is a deep subject which requires average IQ. Making those with such low IQ a moron. Thank you and please dont stop saying what is true.

To everyone watching this video, Hindus are the most persecuted lots in the history of humankind. Once extended from Afghanistan to Indonesia, they perished from everywhere except for India and Nepal. Spaces of arts, academia and politics don't like talking about it because Hindus are a divided community themselves. Missionary crusades have converted millions of Hindus lately and high birthrate among Muslims and forced conversions in the hinterland pose a threat to the Hindu civilisation. Non-proselytising Hindu civilisation needs your support.

Guy's I just want to say one thing Hinduism is not a religion it's a way of living 😊

Cool, so I can put 3 white lines and a red dot on my head, wrap giant japa beads around my neck and it has nothing to do with religion?

Those "japa beeds" for two purpose, firstly it can use to count his affirmations, and then it keeping the shawl from laying down something like.

thank you ted talk. I have gone through anxiety disorder and loss my focus on studies for more than a year , hope this helps a lot during this dark phase of my life

This is a superb video. I know for certain that if I had this knowledge and practised it, I would have enjoyed a fuller and more satisfying life. Thank you so much Dandapani for sharing. Keep spreading the "gospel" (Good news).

This talk is changing someone's life for sure. Thank you so much for the presentation.

I'm said to concentrate for 23 years but no one had taught how to..... Now I get it.Lots of respect to you sir.

The Power of Unwavering Focus is a great book by dandapani. I recommend everyone to go through this book. He is really great.

I never ever commented on any KZread videos in my entire life but this one changed my life forever, because he just taught me how to concentrate and it urged me to write a single comment which I’d probably never write. This is life changing speech cause I always thought that I had adhd now I’m even able concentrate on this comment for the first time in my life. Thank you so much I would practice it for the rest of my life, and I’m going to change my life
