Meditation Matters and it Masters
There are millions of educational institutions across the globe, with hundreds of students every year placed in reputed firms with eye-catching packages. Then, why is the present younger lot unhappy and discontented? Several data show that youths are suffering from several mental health issues. The education system which is responsible to build the moral character in individuals has disastrously failed and, as a result, the youth’s perception and approach towards life have lost its control. The Hegemonic eco-system has been regularly bypassing our consciousness, with uninvited thoughts and ideas. With a rise in depression and suicide rates, it is very important to identify the positive forces and mechanisms which would help to build a healthy society.

Mindfulness - How?
I keep getting told to be mindful. "Mindfulness is the key!" I keep getting told. Whether its my friends, partner, therapist...they all keep telling me the same thing. However, what exactly is "mindfulness"? At first I thought it had to do with self-awareness, and how my behavior effects others. Then, one day in group therapy, the therapist asks us all to close our eyes and be mindful of the things around us. He asked us to tap into our five sense.

WHY DOES MEDITATION MAKE ME CRY
We live in a suppressive culture. On every level our culture teaches us, from birth to death, to suppress what we feel for the greater good. To suppress our opinions in case they cause trouble. To suppress our emotions to keep things nice. And often even, to suppress our abilities so as not to stick out from the crowd.

Meditation
In ancient times, if anyone had health isssues, a healer would chant a mantra (a specific mantra) and the person would be healed. A mantra is a word or phrase or even a syllable that is repeated in concentration. “Man” means and “tra” means transport or vehicle. In this process the healer is a person who has done many tapas and sadhana for this purpose in particular. To be a healer, one had to pass through an initiation by a guru with the Sanjivani Mantra (this is a mantra for healing others). The sadhaka (trainee) would have to meditate on this mantra that contains 7 bijaksharas, or seed letters. After this the sadhaka gains the power to heal and is eligible to work as a healer.
