The miracle of life was not wasted upon us, nor was the miracle of breath.Adho Mukha Svanasana Yoga The Sufis Islamic mystics say, Knowledge without spiritual practice is like a tree that does not bear fruit/’ A meditation practice allows the yoga practitioner to live more fully in the present moment with awareness and in peace.Adho Mukha Svanasana Yoga The different forms of mediv- tation are as varied and unique as the religious traditions that teach them. Many of us continue to think of meditation as an activity solely involving our minds. Or perhaps we jump immediately to the ideas of chanting and mantra repetition, and imagine robed monks sitting atop a mountain.
Meditation is actually a variety of techniques or activities in which we engage our minds and on which we focus our attention. As we are beginning to see, there are many roads that can lead us to the same place. Therefore, the underlying principles of the posture of meditation are universal in their application whether you practice Theravadan mindfulness, Christian contemplation, or Hindu mysticism, meditation and its postures are for all seekers.
