We have not understood the purpose of focused attention. We have a belief that our work is done if focused attention is developed or happened during our prayer session. It should be introduced in our daily works. If we maintain this focused attention in our works and progress further, there is increase in this focused attention over a period of time. Our fore fathers did not give importance to this aspect. It is alright to do prayers and Trical Sandhya (a kind of prayer). But it does not mean we are finished with our work. We should integrate this focused attention produced from prayers with our daily works and develop it further.
Usual custom is to sit in meditation in the morning and do whatever is necessary at that time. It should not be like " this far and no further " in this matter. We must engage our increased attention in daily works. As a result there is increased depth in our work, increased enthusiasm and development of good qualities. Focused attention develops further as a result.
