Meditation, these days, is often confined to the puja room. As soon as one emerges from the shrine, one is filled with all sorts of mental agitations. Hence, it has been declared: Satatam yoginah (Be established in yoga all the time). This does not mean giving up all worldly affairs. Pursue your studies. Fulfill your duties. But in all these activities, use your Dharana power (the power of concentration). In the process, you develop your powers of Dhyana (meditation). Dhyana means single-pointed contemplation. Even in daily life, when one is in a reflective mood, he is asked: “What is the Dhyana you are doing?” Dhyana means absorption in thought. It should be centred on only one specific subject. This is described in Vedantic parlance as Salokyam. “Sa” comprehends every aspect of Divinity. Salokya means absorption in the thoughts of Divinity. Through Dhyana you have to achieve the sense of oneness with the Divine. – Divine Discourse, Jun 29, 1989.
