Background

The ordinary meaning of the word  "Meditation" (Dhyana), is concentration of the mind. All people constantly ponder over some subject, individual or substance. The mind of every individual continues to shift in thoughts from one to the other and then to another object. 

Hence, the state of the human mind, pondering over worldly objects and things is known as ill-meditation (bad concentration). All such meditations that hinder the spiritual progress (Sadhana) of the self are to be given up. Let us enumerate here, the main types of bad concentration  and then proceed to understand meditation that leads to right religion (Dharma).

Author : Shri Atmanandji (Dr. Soneji)
