home calendar faq guestbook ... yoga therapy meditation Meditation is the state achieved from intense concentration on a single object until all other thoughts vanish and all that is left is an intense awareness of the object. For some traditions, that's all there is to it. In yoga, however, the ultimate goal is a bit more ambitious. Meditation is one of the Eight Limbs of yoga outlined in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras . Called dhyana, meditation is considered the highest practice and is the final step before bliss. James Hewitt, in The Complete Book of Yoga defines the goal of yoga meditation like this: " meditation means sense withdrawl (pratyahara) and concentration (dharana), sustained into contemplation (dhyana), with the aim of triggering a super-conscious state (samadhi), which is one of intuitive realization of the identity of the individual soul or spirit and the cosmic soul or spirit." Of course, samadhi may be a long time coming. Frankly, it doesn't matter because there are lots of other benefits to be had along the way. For example, meditation helps reduce stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure, and improve concentration, clarity and creativity. Or, to paraphrase Patanjali's classic comment about yoga

Psychological State Changes in Meditation James Kempf (This article was extracted from the newsgroup talk.religion.buddhism) In couple previous note strings, some requests have come up for information on psychological studies of meditation and enlightenment. There have been many psychological studies on meditation over the years, mostly on TM and, recently, on vipassana. A study that I've found most helpful was done by Jack Engler and Daniel Brown, and is reported in the book "Transformations of Consciousness" by Ken Wilber, Jack Engler, and Daniel Brown (from Shambala Publications). I would highly recommend that anybody interested in psychology and meditation buy the book, because there is much more in it than the Brown/Engler study. For those who don't have access, here's a brief summary. Engler and Brown studied meditators who had gone through the 3 month retreat that the Insight Meditation Society runs every fall at their center in Barre, Mass. The study divided the retreat participants into three groups, with the teachers, who were not part of the retreat, as controls: 1) A group who had not exhibited any particular deepening of samadhi or vipassana during the retreat. They were primarily busy resolving psychological problems of varying depths that arose during the intense inner examination of the retreat.

Over the last 30 years Buddhism has seen growth in the West as its non-dogmatic nature, rationality, possibility of a spiritual guide, and opportunity for personal transformation have all made it attractive to post-modern society. It has about 500 million adherents around the world-45,000 active Buddhists in UK 'Buddha' means 'one who has woken up'. Most people live asleep, never knowing or seeing life as it really is. As a consequence they suffer. A buddha is someone who awakens to the knowledge of the world as it truly is and so finds release from suffering.

There is increasing evidence that meditation is a useful and, for some people, a powerful therapy Dr Adrian White, University of Exeter It is now catching on worldwide as a means to reduce stress or to help with pain caused by various illnesses. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States enrolled 41 people in a trial of so-called "mindfulness" meditation. It is a technique developed by an American stress reduction specialist - Jon Kabat-Zinn - for helping hospital patients deal with pain and discomfort.
