Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda conducted many sessions on meditation for the spiritual seekers. In these sessions, Swamiji has not only discussed the goal of meditation but also the means to reach it by systematic practice of contemplation. He provides step by step instructions for the seekers to start the meditation by relaxing their bodies using thought massage, quietening the mind and surrendering it to a higher altar and then practising the 'Sakshi Bhava' through japa to glide oneself at the centre of one's Consiousness. He also points out in detail many tips and tricks that must be used and the pitfalls that must be avoided in order to succeed in contemplation.
