________________ 196 wealth cannot be solved with religion. Nor can the problems of agriculture or monetary problems. That everything can be achieved with religion and meditation is an untrue belief. We should not forget the limits. Everything has its own limits. This is anekanta's mantra or slogan. It is essential to know the limits. Meditation can solve problems but only those that fall within its ambit. Even the greatest of sages has to drink water, eat food. He has to wear clothes and at times even undergo medication. In this context I shall explain to you how Ayurved came into being? It is a long story. Once many sages who were meditating in the lap of the Himalayas fell ill. The question was that when they were all observing restraint, practicing celibacy and meditating, why should they fall ill? The search for a reason began. Many sages met. Sage Bhardwaj was told to go Lord Indra and ask for the reason. Sage Bhardwaj went to Indra. He placed the problem before him and asked for solutions. Nothing can be looked at from one angle and it should be recognized that meditation is not the solution to all ills. Let us understand its limits.
