SELF AWARENESS THROUGH MEDITATION
As the person progresses in meditation, anger, greed etc disappear and virtues of simplicity and sweetness appear.
There are four supports of this Dhyana namely
a. Not to be in distress b. Aloofness c. Enlightenment d. Unconcern for and detachment from the body
Conclusion
It is possible to get concentration by many means but concentration can lead to peace of mind and enlightenment only when one is in equanimity, detached and free from craving. Satisfaction should take place of craving, forgiveness of anger and wisdom of ignorance. Dhamma Dhyana and Shukla Dhyana lead to peace and enlightenment whereas Aarta and Roudra Dhyana cause suffering and anguish.
