We all go to doctor for medicine to our diseased body. The well studied doctor examines and gives the medicine depending upon the symptoms we have. Where as the meditation is the process of gaining strength or realising yourself and making you get the ultimate happiness you are seeking. Medication requires a doctor and your value money but meditation requires just a peaceful, calm and a stationary mind. The aim both is to make us healthy. Medication cures you from outside (as you take the medicine from outside) where as the meditation cures from inside only. The result of meditation is so much powerful than that of medication.
The title of this article is actually borrowed from the Osho's concept of meditation who has given scientific reasons and proof for every experiments he has conducted on meditation. According to him meditation is something that makes you feel a freely falling body ( which is free from gravitational force). It makes you a perfect man, a peaceful and happiest soul for which man is struggling to get from the medication. We see people around us going to hospitals for their health problems but they never get cured. It is like you are getting a wicket with a no ball.
Let me tell you a story of a blind girl who came to Osho.
there was a lady who was unable to see this colourful world. She was not the born blinded. She became blind when her parents refused her to marry a person she loved the most. She promised herself that without seeing her loved one she would not going to see the world. Her family members thought it as the silly thing. They thought that she was acting like a blind woman. But many times she was hit by the wall, door etc. while walking in and around her house. This made her parents worry and they showed her many doctors but the doctors said that everything with her eyes was okey. They showed to the psychiatrists also but the same results came. Once someone told them about Osho so they brought her to him. Osho asked her why are you unable to see this colourful world. Then that girl replied "Oshoji without my lover whole world is nothing to me i would not see this world without him". Osho called her parents to bring her lover. As the lover of that blind girl came her darkness disappeared and she able to see.
The above example shows her determined mind to resist her eyes to function. She thought herself that without him there is nothing as soon as she saw him then her life came back to her.Similar to this there are many people around us who has the simple problem inside them but even the well studied doctors are unable to resolve. The meditation answers to this problem easily. It brings lot of joy to your soul and life. This what the lord Bhuddha got under Bhodivrakshya. He enlightened with the meditation only.
When you look at the life of the Himalayan saints you wonder how they lead their life for hundreds of years.They meditate for hours and days to achieve the great powers we the common people don't have. The food they intake is the sunlight and the fresh air around them. As we open the pages of history we notice that the meditation was given great importance. The ashta munis (8 saints) achieved their powers through the meditation only. The process of meditation is very simple sit in a peaceful place, make your mind empty i.e. stop thinking about this mortal world. Through away the negative thoughts that come to your mind. To get good concentration either start with pranayama or chanting mantra. Brahmakumari Shivaniji also explains the same thing about the initialising of meditation.
By doing so we are definitely sliding from medication to meditation. You feel that you are the supreme soul, you feel that mokshya is this only. Increase the duration day by day and reach the samadhi. ( dharana for 2 hours: Dhyana for 24 hours: samadhi for 12 days.) Samadhi is the state of mind in which you feel the ultimate happiness and mokshya this is what the saints, vedas, Osho and Brahmakumaris say to us...
