When we talk of meditation techniques available… the only thought that comes to mind is attending guided meditation classes in a meditation retreat which is quite common in the West. Truthfully speaking there is no fixed technique for meditation. One can do meditation in any posture comfortable to one… either sitting, standing or lying down.

Before we talk further of meditation techniques… we need to understand the meaning of meditation in totality… the history of meditation… from where did meditation originate… the definition of meditation as it should be and not as described in various dictionaries and encyclopedias!

Meditation in Hindi means yoga. In simpler words Yoga stands for the process of synthesizing between the two. Ever since our soul atman separated from its original source, God Almighty himself… the effort of our soul atman to unite with supreme atman… the Parmatman himself (God Almighty) is termed yoga nee meditation.

Hinduism primarily is not a religion… it is a way of life like Jainism! The doctrine of Hinduism… the philosophy of Hinduism is the oldest in the world. About 3600 years before came Lord Krishna… an Avatar of Dwaper Yuga (God manifest in human form). Lord Krishna re-established Dharma (righteousness) rooting out adharma (lawlessness) forever.

Followed him about thousand years later Mahavira… the 24th preceptor of Jainism! Next came Gautama Buddha… then Jesus Christ and followed him Prophet Mohammed! The advent of Jainism for all practical purposes reigns behind Hinduism! Some claim that Jainism is older than Hinduism. Agreed… the initial 23 preceptors of Jainism… 21 of them came earlier to the advent of Lord Krishna.

One thing must be clearly understood. The entire philosophy of Jainism is known by the teachings of Mahavira for it was Mahavira… the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism during whose time the teachings of Jainism percolated to the masses. Until the 23rd Tirthankara the Wisdom of the enlightened ones remained limited to their self. It was only when Mahavira came into the scene… the entire Wisdom of Jainism spread to the masses.

The Wisdom of Hinduism… the doctrine of Hinduism… the theory of Hinduism… the concept of Hinduism is widely remembered from the times of Lord Krishna who gave the doctrine of Bhagavad Gita in the battle of Mahabharata between Pandavas and Kauravas. In a nutshell, Bhagavad Gita encompasses the entire teachings of Hinduism!

Before the advent of Lord Krishna… no religion was in existence world over. Bhagavad Gita contains the true essentials of Hinduism… the juice of Hinduism! And why is Hinduism not a religion? The Aryans who once lived in higher mountain regions… traveled to lower regions in search of a moderate climate. They finally settled themselves on both sides of the River Indus.
