Sleep is an un-conscious Meditation. Meditation is conscious sleep. In sleep we get limited energy. In Meditation we will get abundant energy. This energy is enhancing the power of body, mind, and intellects. Meditation is open the doors of our sixth sense and beyond. With this boosted energy through meditation we will get relax, healthy and happy. It also helps to greater heights in the physical realm.

Meditation is nothing but journey of our consciousness towards self realization. Meditation is consciously   travels to body, body to mind, mind to intellect, intellect to self and beyond. To do Meditation, first we must stop all the functions of our body and mind. That is body movement, seeing, speaking and thinking.

Now Let us know how to do meditation.

For Meditation, first thing is the posture. You may sit in any posture. Posture must be very comfortable and stable. We can meditate either on floor or on a chair. We can meditate any place, where ever you feel comfortable. Sit comfortably, cross your legs and your fingers. Now close your eyes. Stop inner and outer charter. Don’t chat any mantra. Just relax, totally relax, just relax.

When we cross our legs and hand fingers, the Energy circuit will forms and gives more stability. The Eyes are the doors of the mind. So, eye should be closed. Mantra chanting or any other chanting of inner or outer or any other activities of mind should be stopped.  When, the body relaxes the conscious travel to next zone. That is body, mind and intellect.

The mind is the bundles of thoughts. There are numerous thoughts are always coming into the surface of the mind. Where there are thoughts in the mind. We may get many questions it may be known or unknown to us. To transcend  the mind and intellect. One should observe the breath. Observation is the nature of self. So, one should just witness the breath. Don’t do conscious breathing. Don’t inhale or exhale consciously. Let inhalation and exhalation happens its own. Just observe normal breath. This is the main key for meditation. This is the way for meditation.

Don’t go behind thoughts; don’t think queries, questions, or thoughts. Come back to breath. Observe normal breathing. Be with your breath. Then the density of the thoughts reduces, thinner and shorter. Finally breath  becomes smallest. It settles like a flash in between two eye brows. In this state one will have no breath and no thoughts. He will be totally thoughtless. This state is called nirmal isthithy. Or no- thought state.

This is called meditative state. In this state, we will be under the shower of cosmic energy. The more meditation one does the more will be cosmic energy one receives. This cosmic energy flows through energy body is also called ethnic body.

WHAT IS YOGA?

It was practiced 1000 of years ago in our country and is being carried out even today. Our ancestors practiced with remarkable success to maintain good physics and to keep mind tranquil.

Yoga has been integral part of our vedantific philosophy, vedas, upanishads and Ramayana. Talk about it. Lord krishna also explained to Arjuna the secret of yoga in the Gita.

The science of Yoga was inherited from one generation to another. Among the earliest sages who contributed in laying the foundation of yoga system was Kapil who lived in 700 BC. He developed samkhya philosophy. He was of the opinion that the answer to human problem lay in acquiring 'Samayak Gyan' - Proper knowledge.

It was left to Sage Patanjali to show a method for obtaining the goal laid down by Kapil. While Kapil laid stress on acquiring 'gyan', the patanjali system deals with both the body,mind and soul.

Yoga is a psychophysical system of exercises based upon the knowledge of the relation between the body and the mind. It is in fact a key to reveal the mysteries of universal consciousness. It shows the way how people can conquer suffering, disease and death. It teaches how to stretch life span and enjoy a better living.

Yoga is not merely a science dealing with various body postures, it is, apart being a source of sound health, gives eternal peace of mind. A regular practice not only adds years to life but leads to a meaningful life.

The medical science, which has developed in leaps and bounds has also reached the conclusion that, without taking into account the mind, it is not possible to cure the body. Thus yoga unites body, mind and soul.
