Without
understanding the true meaning and purport of meditation... no form of meditation
serves any purpose! Why? Why I am being so blunt? I have observed people meditating
in a dimly lit room concentrating on the centre of a small bulb! The benefits...
absolutely nil! What after all is the definition and meaning of meditation?
Meditation
in Hindi is termed yoga. And what does yoga mean? Yoga is derived from the root
word Yog which in Hindi stands for synthesis between the two... our soul atman
on its cosmic journey and the super atman... the Parmatman... God Almighty himself!
Ever since every soul atman separated from its source, God Almighty himself...
the goal of life for every soul atman remains regaining its pure pristine original
cosmic form at the earliest.
Devoid
of all impurities within... every soul atman regains its original pure pristine
form! And how does one negate the dross impurities within! We must always remember
it is not the impurities dross within the human body... but our soul atman that
is of importance! It is our soul atman that is on its cosmic journey and not the
human body.
Every
soul atman manifests a series of 8.4 million bodies (an earthly journey of 96.4
million years) to work out its karma... remove the dross impurities within! Within
this period every soul atman is expected to reach the end goal of cosmic life...
the 8.4 millionth manifestation! Right from the first manifestation as a human
being... the goal of soul atman remains liberation from the cycle of birth and
death forever.
The
purpose of meditation yoga primarily is removing the dross impurities within!
As the impurities dross within the soul atman remove... the human being climbs
the spiritual ladder faster. Lesser the impurities within... higher brackets of
life does the human being reach! The moment complete dross impurities within the
soul atman remove... one reaches the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and
finally salvation (moksha).
To
reach the source of cosmic life, God Almighty himself we need to concentrate on
our breathing process! Who needs breathing... the human being or the soul atman?
Lying in the Shavasana pose of yoga when we deeply concentrate on the breathing
process we ultimately realize it is our soul atman within our heart that requires
breathing!
Reaching the
source of breathing is the ultimate goal of human life! The moment human beings
realize we are a potential source of energy... the soul atman itself in its cosmic
glory... we realize our true self... our inner self forever! Right from the first
manifestation as an amoeba (single cell formation) to the form of human beings
(the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life cycle) the goal of soul atman remains
liberation from the cycle of birth and death forever.
It
is only in the human form the soul atman regains its original pure pristine form...
never otherwise! As a human being to meditate... conduct yoga and reach the source
of breathing is the essence of meditation yoga! Every form of yoga meditation
primarily indulges in taking control of the breathing process... understanding
it in its entirety!
It
is only through the path of breathing one reaches the source of breathing... our
soul atman within! Following this path of yoga meditation does not require any
postal teaching. Lying in the Shavasana pose of yoga one must practice Neti (not
this, not this) as preached and advocated by Maharishi Ramana. We may or may not
desire traveling the spiritual path now.
Yet...
elevating self on the path of meditation has its benefits! Spirituality is never
to be feared of! Meditation is part of spirituality... following the inner path...
the inner goal of life! We need not ever fear our soul atman within. The moment
one gains enlightenment... the fear of death permanently vanishes... one for all
practical purposes gains immortality!
In
the last about 150 years only two persons gained enlightenment... they were Sri
Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana. Reading any literature related to
the two is truly enlightening. The path of meditation yoga is best followed the
Ramakrishna Paramhansa or the Maharishi Ramana way!
For
every human being the path of meditation yoga primarily remains different! Why?
Meditation simply does not lay in the various forms of yoga exercises alone. As
many human beings as many forms of meditation yoga can there be. The teachings
remaining the same... every student in class follows the teacher in a different
manner!
It is
not the teaching imparted that rules the roost... it is the level of understanding
of the student that plays the vital role! In whatever stage of life one may be...
we can meditate and enhance self on the spiritual path! Those indulging in materialistic
pursuits of life need not meditate in any manner.
Meditation
is directly linked to our inner world... the world of our soul atman within! The
sweet small inner voice of our soul atman that seems to come from within our heart
must become our guide in the journey of life. By remaining absolutely truthful...
one can distinctly hear the voice of our soul atman that always guides us on the
right path.
While
meditating whenever we tend to go wrong... the sweet small inner voice of our
soul atman always prompts us on the right path! In the journey of life we are
never alone. God Almighty in minuscule form is present within us as our soul atman.
Our soul atman is the primal source of life... the form of human beings simply
being a garb for the soul atman within!
Think
seriously... think of our relationship as a human being with our soul atman. What
is our relationship with God Almighty? Why were we born a human being? What is
our ultimate goal of life? What is our relationship with insects, animals and
plants! We would ultimately realize that different forms of manifestation are
nothing but small sojourns in the life of our soul atman!
Our
soul atman is on a cosmic journey of 96.4 million earthly years... that constitutes
a single span of life in the life of soul atman! In the human form alone we have
1.1 million manifestations (an earthly journey of 12.4 million years) to reach
the stage of enlightenment and salvation. We may desire or not... every human
being indulges in meditation yoga at a certain stage of life!
Who
knows what we shall be in the next manifestation... why not travel the spiritual
path now!
I again
repeat... so much literature is available freely world over and particularly in
India... proper meditation yoga can easily be conducted simply by concentrating
our energies on our breathing process. The most vital ingredient on the path of
spirituality and meditation yoga is remaining truthful all along! Practicing truthfulness
in its entirety is the most difficult aspect of human life!
May
God bless you!
