Satya vaani 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2002 Namaste, This is my first post.and i hope its ok if i post a topic of introducing myself and then asking a few questions abt this site and 1 spiritual question too. Dear moderators if u feel this is not the right place to post a topic like this, then i kindly request u to shift my topic to someother area where it will be allowed. thanx, I visited this site around 4 days back, and i was very glad to see that there is such rich information available on the internet. u guys have got sacred scriptures, good articles on yoga and meditation. i just wanted to ask 2 questions. one is concerning yoga and meditation and the other abt this site. 1)i just am interested in knowing who has made this site? is it made by an organization or just some like minded people. 2) and second question regarding meditation is that, i found some good writings abt meditation on ur site, but i have been told by some people to learn meditation properly from a guru, and not do it myself. i have also heard that if one tries to do meditation all by himself then he may end up with some mental problems. it is very dangerous they say. so what is ur suggestion on this?? what type of meditation is safe and can a person do it without consulting anyone? Dhanyawaad! And i once again congratulate u guys for making this wonderful site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shvu 1 Report post Posted January 30, 2002 so what is ur suggestion on this?? what type of meditation is safe and can a person do it without consulting anyone? Different people meditate for different reasons. Why do you want to meditate or what do you hope to get out of meditation? Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gHari 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2002 Good point. If we are only trying to control pain and thereby avoid novocain in the dentist's office, then our goal is actually: transcend dental medication. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Avinash 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2002 May be that Satya does not want to make females as his sisters. Otherwise, it will be tough for him to get married. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gHari 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2002 Satya, the first link on the web site in my signature below contains the essence of bhakti yoga meditation. In scripture God reveals that this is the most powerful form of meditation. The link is called "The Kingdom Is At Hand". ------------------ Gary Stevason Seeking the Kingdom of God Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shvu 1 Report post Posted January 31, 2002 i have heard some benefits of meditation like increase in intelligence, and concentration etc.. This type of meditation is not dangerous and can either be learnt from a book or by a competent teacher. Try out a book and if that does not work, try a teacher. and no one answered my question about who made this site? and which organization runs this site, if there is any. Go to the home page of this site and check out the the links at the bottom of the page where you will find all the Info you need. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
