acquainted with the process of purification of the psychic centres situated in the body. The concept of the Science of Living provides for training on this aspect.
No light can manifest itself unless the screen that obstructs it from view is pulled off. In the manifestation of consciousness, too, the purification of the nervous system or the awakening of the psychic centres is an important factor. Without this, without creating an electro-magnetic field, the inner energy cannot be transmitted to the outer sphere. The purification or sensitization in itself constitutes the magnetic field. Thus, consciousness is further extended. The technique of the Science of Living is the process of dhyana-sadhana, and this forms an essential part of the teaching of meditation. Without. meditation one cannot come to know the definition of individuality, nor can one come upon the principles of personality-formation.
