“Meditate. Meditate. Do not lose even a single minute. Meditation will remove all the miseries of life.That is the only way.”
Swami Sivananda
Meditation is the key to real, lasting peace and happiness. It is a mysterious ladder which reaches from earth to heaven, from error to truth, from darkness to light, from pain to bliss, from restlessness to abiding peace, from ignorance to knowledge.
Meditation is the practice by which there is constant observation of the Mind. It involves setting aside a regular time and place for the specific purpose of discovering that infinite well of wisdom which lies within. It infuses the mind with positivity, joy and inexpressible peace. It promotes health and vitality. It leads to Samadhi or superconscious state. It paves the way to Self-realization.
