Meditation calms the mind

Q: Meditation calms the mind. It feels good. But in our daily life we have to handle paying bills, parking tickets and other mundane things. How can we do this with the same calm mind, without getting irritated or perturbed?
Sri Sri: You take a shower in the morning to clean your body. After that you do all the daily activities. You don't have to keep on taking a shower throughout the day. It’s like that.
You meditate and calm your mind, then go on with other activities. It’s not easy to keep yourself undisturbed, but it’ll happen as you keep doing the practices regularly. Then it’ll become easy.
Meditation is accepting this moment, and living every moment totally with depth. Just this understanding, and few days of continuous practice of meditation, can change the quality of our life.
