Has meditation become a fashion? In today’s globalized world many people have at least tried meditation once. Some among them continue. For most others it is a one time affair.
In all cases the sad thing is that they dont know what is meditation really:
Is it a tool to control the mind?
Is it a way of life?
ls it the path to enlightenment and liberation?
For most people it is a technique to relax. Buddha is depicted in the meditation position and thus people think that they too will get enlightened once they meditate.
In short to many meditation is the solution to life’s problems.
My theory of meditation
Meditation is like education. It is not a single technique; it is not the only thing. Yes just like education. With this regard You could call it by any other name like yogic exercise or gyan or Karma yoga or bhakti yoga.
Education has a purpose and so does yoga be it dhyana or gyana or Karma or bhakti. The purposes of yoga I have found are simple:-
1. Reconnect with your past lives to continue where one had stopped due to death
2. Find and pursue the objective or purpose or destiny set for one in this life. Set by who? Your self and your super self whom you call god out of fear.
3. Burn all the negative Karma of one’s past lives with minimum negative impact on oneself and others.
4. Increase one’s receptivity to divine energy and intelligence which again as I said earlier is your super soul
5. Merge soul with super soul
6. Decrease stress, reactionary thinking and negative attitude that are detrimental to the above five purposes
7. Enable the transmutation of sexual energy that is the preliminary force of life into your soul’s expertise in it’s innate occupation. Like music if you are a musical soul; scientific genius if You are a scientist and so on.
8. Understand and use the difference between body, mind, intelligence, memory, soul and supersoul.
9. Find inner peace and external prosperity in their highest balance. meaning to find happiness, wealth , power and fame at the same time in a state of balance.
10. Prepare for existence after death in this life.
There are other purposes of yoga but they can be fitted as subsets of the above 10 purposes.
They are my 10 purposes of yoga. If you feel attracted to my path of yoga, you will find me one day. If you feel repelled, you have still a long way to go in this path of yoga because what I just wrote is equivalent to super advanced calculus in mathematics. If One is not even familiar with basic calculus advanced calculus would make no sense let us foget if one doesn’t know trigonometry.
However most people would just find me interesting and go their way. It is so natural as we all have so much Karma to complete before even understanding yoga.
I am not looking for followers. I have burned that Karma. But if you are ready for the phD of yoga as I said before: you will find me.
