Does the practice of meditation truly bring benefits?

To the genuine inquirers of inner truths and the vast realm of stillness 🌺,

Meditation, cherished souls, is not merely a practice; it’s a sacred communion with one’s innermost being. It’s a question often posed – does meditation truly aid our journey? The answer lies deep within the serene waters of our own consciousness.

The Srimad Bhagavad Gita elucidates: ‘With the intellect set in patience, with the mind fastened to the intellect, one gradually becomes established in tranquillity; and being established in tranquillity, one ceases from all sorrows.’ Such tranquillity is the gift of meditation.

Reflect upon the profound benefits of this timeless art:

  1. A Sanctuary Within: Amidst the whirlwind of existence, meditation offers a sanctuary, a haven of peace where one reconnects with their true essence.
  2. Clarity Amidst Chaos: By stilling the mind’s incessant chatter, meditation illuminates the path ahead, providing clarity amidst the fog of confusion.
  3. Emotional Equilibrium: Meditation fosters a state of emotional equilibrium, where joys are savoured without attachment and challenges are faced with courage and serenity.

Guided by the Srimad Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 6, Verse 27):

“प्रशान्तमनसं ह्येनं योगिनं सुखमुत्तमम् | उपैति शान्तरजसं ब्रह्मभूतमकल्मषम् ||”

Which translates to:

“The yogi whose mind is peaceful, whose passions are subdued, who is without impurity, and who has reached the high state of supreme well-being, attains Brahmic bliss.”

To meditate is to embark on the most intimate journey of self-discovery, to unearth the treasures that reside within. For those who seek, meditation unfailingly illuminates, heals, and elevates.
