ध्यान के शाश्वत सिद्धांत: ब्रह्म विद्या भाग १

Everyone knows that meditation is good for us. Every doctor, psychologists, fitness teacher and even your friends and neighbors tell you so. Maybe, you yourself are practicing meditation for long.

Despite the increased popularity of meditation practices, the modern meditation systems primarily focusing on psychological and physical well-being are only partially successful. Moreover, very few meditation practitioners aim at attaining self-awareness or the status of super consciousness.

The Author emphasizes that physical and mental health are only additional benefits, or byproducts of meditation and the aim should be much higher. For this, we need to understand the original meditation systems explained in traditional gems of books, including Patanjali Yog Sutra, Vedas, and Upanishads.

Meditation is second stage of Internal part of Yoga. It needs successful completion and control of earlier six stages. Currently, most of the Yoga gurus, in order to simplify the process, do not stress on this requirement.

While five internal parts of the Yoga (Yama, Niyama, Aasan, Pranayam and Pratihar) may be practiced outside, or among a group; there is need to perform the three internal stages of Dharana, Dhyan (Meditation) and Samadhi in a secluded place.

Result is that we get a fast food type Meditation, mostly ignoring basic stages and stopping at the Pratyahar stage providing mental calmness and health benefits.

Very few reach the Meditation stage and then goal of meditation, i.e., attaining the stage of super consciousness is forgotten.

The book explains the process in very simple way. The series of books also expounds the 32 Brahm Vidyas, wisdom extracted from major Upanishads. We find eleven such wisdom here in first part of the book, ideal starting point for meditation.
