Benefits of meditation include a greater sense of relax-
ation in both mind & body, greater flexibility of
thinking, an ability to meet situation with freshness and
insight. From the standpoint of pure physical expression
it can help loosen the knots and tensions trapped in the
body by distributing emotions.It can help to change both
facial expression and body posture, thereby softening and
strengthening at the sametime. There are some of possible
results, but they are not the goals. Meditation helps
strengthen the positive qualities of compassion, patience
and wisdom and free us of conflicting emotions and
erroneous beliefs.
Meditation
There are many form of meditation:
silent sitting, chanting, praying,
walking meditation, meditation that
uses visualization or focus on
objects. Meditation can be found in
almost every tradition in world
if one were to look into their more
contemplative practices.
Samadi is the state of highest equilibrium during meditation,
when the individual consciousness merges into the Cosmic
Consiousness. All limitations vanish, the individual consious-
-ness empties itself and in that emptying process. Life
changes and daily living becomes a new and fresh experience.
In the spiritual evolution of man, Ayurveda is a foundation,
Yoga is the body and Tantra is a head. It is necessary first
to understand Ayurveda in order to experience the practices
of Yoga & Tantra. Thus Ayurveda, Yoga, Tantra form an
independent Trinity of life. None of these practices stand
alone. The health of body,mind & consiousness depends on the
knowledge and practice of these three in daily life.
