________________ 208/JAIN STUDIES AND SCIENCE • Meditation • Exercise 5.2. Increasing mental resilience by • Acting and thinking positively • Keeping busy • Living in present • Discussing problems over • Avoid taking problems to bed • Observing fast - overcomes laziness and enhances self control Conclusion Spiritual tools like meditation, yoga etc. have found universal acceptance even in the medical fraternity. These exercises keep both - mental and physical -- health in good condition. They are based on the axiom that 'the prevention is always better than cure.' Time-tested spiritual practices are like a 'stitch in time saves nine.' On the other hand, advancements in medical, computer, electronics pace sciences have given rise to very interesting and peculiar possibility -- 'an eternal soul need not leave a Nashwar Shareer, rather it can find a permanent abode in an immortal body.' The possibility is not very far off. 1171 NA Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
