ously activated but all the centres of all men do not remain active at once. Through practice, one or more centres may be awakened or activated. The centres of consciousness located in mortal human frame are like secret treasures. The process of preksha meditation is intended to activate these centres. Breath-perception, body-perception, internal trip, kayotsarg—all form parts of that process. Without regulating the psychic centres, there can be no control of emotions. Unless the psychic centres are transformed, there is little possibility of a change of heart. And without changing a man's feelings, general nature or habit, there can be no transformation of personality, no spiritual development, whatsoever, not even any upward movement of consciousness. In view of this the activation of the psychic centres is very important. The sadhak who practises perception of psychic centres with deep devotion is bound to succeed.
