Meditation is central to all spiritual life, whatever be the religion one follows. Swami Ritajananda, who had wide experience with spiritual seekers both in India and abroad, has very clearly set forth the principles and practice of meditation. The part played by the guru and the mantra are lucidly set forth. Quotations are also given from the Scriptures to explain the various factors involved in meditation.
If a piece of burning charcoal be placed on a man's head, see how he struggles to throw it off. Similar will be the struggle for freedom of those who really understand that they are slaves of nature.
