Art & Science of Meditation
Philosophy and Religion
Buddhists also practise meditation in a different way. Shri Goenkaji established many Vipassana centres for meditation.
Muslims have different methods of meditation by doing Namaz regularly.
Christians do Sunday prayers regularly in the church and confess their guilt complexes to the priest. It creates an awareness so that they do not repeat mistakes.
J. Krishnamurti adopted Russian psychologist Pavlov's theory of deconditioning. He says that you get more and more awareness and change accordingly, and he emphasizes practising meditation regularly to get more and more awareness for SELF-REALIZATION.
JAINISM
The fundamental principles of Jainism can be briefly stated as follows:
1. The first fundamental principle of Jainism is that man's personality is dual – material and spiritual. Jain philosophy regards that every soul is bound by subtle particles of matter known as Karma from the very beginning. It considers that just as gold is found in an alloy form in the mines, in the same way souls are found along with the Karma bondage
