Meditation Dress & Sadhana

[Guest guest]

Namaste Fylgjarunester, the Meditation Dress being for wearing on

different parts of the body to attain Rudra-hood which is also

Shiva-hood (God-hood or God Realization), is very suitable for Raja

Yoga. Its the royal path of mind control. Its also the most

comprehensive and scientific approach to God Realization.

 

The precepts and doctrines of this ancient science were first compiled

and explained by Patanjala Maharshi. As a system for probing the mind,

its a method of self-enquiry that takes a person through personal

changes step by step. As one progresses along, then comes the various

stages of samadhi, the superconscious state.

 

Raja Yoga is extremely lengthy to explain here but firstly understanding

that The Self is the 'witness' of all that is perceived but does not act

nor react because all action and reaction take place only in the mind of

man, appearing as 'Vrittis'. Thought which is the most powerful force in

the universe, initiates all action. Actions carried out on the physical

plane is only a 'mirror' of the inner workings of the mind.

 

That which is assumed to be 'reality' or even the physical environment

in which a person lives, is also only a projection of the mind. In

truth, when the numerous 'mental modifications' or Vrittis are

restrained, a person is no longer affected by the comings and goings or

happenings of the world, and The Self shines forth in undisturbed

purity. If unsure, its best to seek guidance from a guru or classically

initiated swami who specializes in Raja Yoga.

 

b) You can also try Mantra Japa beginning with Saguna Mantra.

 

c) About Pranayana, its important to seek guidance from gurus, swamis or

qualified and experienced practitioners because many Pranayana exercises

have precautions for those suffereing from heart or cardiac and some

other ailments. However, gentle practise of Hatha Yoga asanas can be

performed. Hatha Yoga is the mastery of the body and breath to bring

good health by physical and mental purification. It allows mankind to

reach our full potential, an objective which can only be achieved if

there is balance and harmony between the body and mind.

 

All that said, don't take my word for it. You must explore the

possibilities and do some research before deciding on which practice you

want to undertake. Concentrate on one practice at a time and master it.

 

Jai Shambho
