PREKSHA MEDITATION, THERAPY
AND CURES
Mahapragya has two important contributions in the field of mental training1. Preksha Meditation 2.Life Sciences
Both these practices are not only rooted in philosophical and spiritual treatises but also encompass sciences - medical and psychological. Preksha form of meditation has inherent therapeutic values while the studies of life sciences' enhances the moral values. Both together form a holistic approach towards life. Preksha meditation is aimed at tension alleviation, health augmentation, moral reinforcement and personality development. Before devising the Preksha meditation, Mahapragya deeply studied all the streams related to the science. He reveals that philosophy and biology are in fact complementary to each other - former suggests that the body is driven and directed by the amorphous consciousness, while the latter gives insight into the micro chemical body mechanism. As both spiritualism and science are investigating the ultimate, they inevitably meet somewhere. To know the energy centres and the nervous system of the body is equally important as to know the consciousness. Mahapragya's comparative studies of science and spiritualism have brought the two fields near to each other and have benefited the mankind with the best of the both.
