Meditation and Mantras

The volume dispels the cloud the confusion that has accumulated around the subject of meditation. The methods presented here stem from the classic form paths of Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga and Bhakti Yoga. These are given in their uncorrupted form, yet with consideration for the Western mind and scientific tradition. A mantra is a mystical energy encased in a sound structure. Its vibrations directly affact the charkas, or energy centers of the body. It steadies the mind and leads to the stillness of meditation. Those mantras which are suitable for meditation are included in this book.
