Dhyana

Dhyana is meditation. Many folks are nervous to begin meditating. They believe that a person can be good or bad at it. However, meditation is more a state that overcomes us, rather than something that you do. There have probably been times you were riding a bicycle or reading a book and you felt an immense sense of peace, clarity, and stillness. The truth is, you were meditating. You were fully engrossed in the present moment. Dhyana simply asks us to set aside time each day to invite meditation into our minds and hearts.

Another method to define Dhyana is to consider the root term 'Dhyayi,' which means 'to consider.' Dhyana, in this meaning, is a mental state that necessitates intense mental pondering or focus. However, it's important to remember that this level of mental depth can only be achieved via rigorous elemental practices. You can improve your chances of experiencing meditation by sitting in a quiet space and using pranayama, pratyahara, and dharana in unison.
