unhappy circumstances or relationships and we keep thinking
about it. ii) Ista-viyoga Aart Dhyana. This happens when there is a loss of a
happy relationship or situation and we keep thinking about it. iii) Roga-chinta Aart Dhyana. This happens when we keep
thinking or worrying about physical disease or pain. iv) Nidana Aart Dhyana, This happens when we keep thinking or
worrying about objectives which are difficult to obtain. In all these four conditions we remain worried and feel unhappy and our mind remains sad, which in turn brings more bad karmas. 2) Raudra Dhyana - Raudra means cruel, harsh. When the mind is
full of anger, hatred, malice and is thinking of violent actions, we are in Raudra dhyana.All mental activities to grab power and wealth, sexual enjoyment and anti-social acts fall within this classification. There are four sub-classifications of this as follows: i) Himsanandi Raudra dhyana means thinking delightfully about
killing, crushing or destroying living beings either by self or
through another. ii) Mrsanandi Raudra dhyana means thinking delightfully about
lying, composing deceptive literature, and collecting wealth by
deceptive means. iii) Chauryanandi Raudra dhyana means thinking delightfully
about the act of theft and also preaching dexterity in theft. iv) Visayanandi Raudra dhyana means thinking delightfully about
satisfying desires. This includes being possessive and thinking
of fighting ferociously to attain the objects of enjoyment. Both the above-referred dhyanas spiritually degrade the self by attracting bad vibrations and karmas. Most of us remain permanently engaged in these two dhyanas with the result that we are not able to make any progress spiritually.
