I would like to give a example to have more concentration while meditating.See if u are given with a bulk of money and asked to count it,when u r counting it ur mind ll be fully concentrated on that and u never have distraction from that and ur counting ll be correct.like that if u meditate with sincerity and playful relaxed mind set u ll have much concentration.Another thing is u r concentration is lost due to thoughts coming in u,so dont supress the thoughts coming in u and watch the thoughts just as an observer like u watch the sky.then the mind ll get tired and stop thinking.

To reach the concentration level is one major achivement for those who are meditating! It is said that our mind is like drunk monkey ( Vivekanad has said that) who is just jumping from here to there to somewhere else and then from there to ... We can go ahead, But most important thing is how to get it to work for positivity related with mind and it's concentration power! If in simple learning is demending good concentration power! We know the example of Arjuna, who was seeing the eye of the bird and so able to lead the arrow directly there and become well known as an expert archer! So if one want to become a good meditator then the concentration power would be more gathered and centralized!
