Art & Science of Meditation psychology, principles of various philosophies, meditation and basic principles of nature. I wanted to know about selfrealization, and the existence of soul. I believed that basic principles of all the above subjects should be kept in mind. We have to think in harmony with all the principles. We should have holistic approach of the principles because all of them are inseparable. The nature's basic principle is to change. Science also changes with new discoveries, but the ancient basic philosophical principles do not change. Keeping all these factors in mind we should live a divine life to achieve our goals.
Inspiration to write this small book came from my family members – In particular, Dr Rishi R Doshi when we discussed meditation for almost six hours. He was impressed, so I thought that others can also take advantage if I write a book. I thank him and the following family members who assisted me in writing this book on computer: Purvi Kamdar, Manan Shah, Harsh Shah, Pradeep Shah and Ramesh Doshi. Thanks to my sons, Dr Apurva Shah, Dr Pranav Shah and Ramesh Doshi for editing and my grandsons, Dr Rishi Doshi and Dr Neel Doshi for writing the foreword. Thanks to my granddaughter, Nikita, for the book cover design. Thanks to my wife, Bhanu, for inspiring me. Thanks to Hemantbhai Parikh and Bindi Doshi for getting this book printed.
