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.
Renounce and give up. What did Christ say? He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. Again and again did he preach renunciation as the only way to perfection. There comes a time when the mind awakes from this long and dreary dream -- the child gives up its play and wants to go back to its mother.
