I feel meditation or dhyanam's main goal is to experience and able to tune with all pervasive vigrations of supreme self, to start with. this can be experienced in short burts, ultimately gives strength to lead a righteous life. Meditation alone cannot help any one to reach salvation. it's just a tool to train mind and tame it. still years of practise also may not help people to deal with Maya. |

Musicfan: Spiritual goal would be self-realization. Most common practical goal is anxiety and stress management. Does meditation in either cases? I am not sure.
Realization is not a goal I work towards It does work on the practical front - trains you / your brain to separate yourself from your reaction and respond more consciously instead of reacting and that helps reduce anxiety and stress...

Anand_n:Why do we meditate ? Guess that is a very personal thing ... for me it clears my mind, lets me remove the noise and focus on things that matter
I understand the personal thing, but the meditation is being marketed tool these days. So I recently was very curious about this meditation, Asked many of my friends who are into IE and AOL, didnt get a solid answer. Surprising thing entante, konchem serious gaa adigesariki they went into thought why they were doing in first place..They figured out either by peer pressure or got into it by unknown reasons, but they dont practice it regularly ( most of them ). They use these for social networking.. for few years I am studying the patterns of my mind, and realized what a powerful too mind is,, which cannot be tamed or controlled so easily. Then I did some research on various meditation techniques and what these people are trying to tell and what they are telling mind to do ani are they able to achieve it after so many years of practice?? The answer was no. Anjaneyaswamy lanti vade with brahma gnana was for a second,, thought of doing suicide, only with intellect acting he could divert it. That tells how powerful the mind is.. Ramana maharshi tells the concept of Mano Layam and Mano nasanam,, the meditation only helps in Layam which is temporary, but cannot do anything with nasanam, that too with closed eye meditation... There is a vedantic meditation as per adwaita philosophy, which tells to keep meditating with eyes wide open, and constantly thinking that one is the Supreme self. There is another type of meditation which keeps you aware of everything happening, that which awareness is all you that is pervading entire.. Ilaa telsukuntu pote there are tons of methods, but what is the ultimate goal, what is required anedi I am trying to figure out. NTR Biopic Audio Review |

the whole idea of fixing ur mind onto something - its cos otherwise there is no way you can control ur mind to NOT wander.. and hence, your focus instrument ( Totem ) has to be something u relate to, and can hold urself to.. out of nothing, imaginary spot, eyebrows.. it will be difficult.. and hence, your mind isnt going to the relax state.. you still have transient thoughts coming up.. brahma satyam jagan-mithyä jivo brahmaiva näparah |
