PRANAYAM,MANTRA AND MEDITATION
Pranayama is a more important way for internalizing the mind, a kind of pratyahara. It also gives us the internal energy so that when we close our eyes to meditate we don’t fall asleep.
Secondly, the use of mantra. Most of the problems that we have with meditation are that people get eaten up by their subconscious thoughts. If we do regular mantra practice, by changing the sound patterns of the subconscious mind, it becomes our ally in meditation.
From that point meditation is the practice of self-inquiry, the whole process of introspection and examining the meaning of our lives can occur once we have brought our mind into the sattvic state.
The other aspect of meditation is surrender, or the devotional aspect, where we surrender or open up to the divine reality, which is also the same as the higher self. So Try to take that kind of practical and integrated approach and have a number of tools. For example, if your mind gests sleepy than you may do pranayama, or if one mantra appeals tome then you may hold on to it until something comes out of it.
Alternatively, if you fall naturally into a meditative state you just let it be and flow with it. It is like a dance, a tapestry. It is like cultivating a garden and growing flowers. Once you have done that cultivation in the mind and when you open your mind and close your eyes and look within, it is like entering a vast garden in which there are always things growing and developing, as opposed to just looking within and discovering a darkness or blankness within.
