The fact is that you meditate not to attain God, but to become aware that God is within you.
Shree Gurudev
Meditation is the yogic practice of being connected to the deepest part within. A wide range of meditation techniques are designed to help you observe and explore the world of thoughts and feelings, and go beyond to an experience of deep peace and contentment.
