It is now widely recognized in the fields of medicine and psychology that meditation is a powerful instrument for the management of stress, the strengthening of the immune system, and for the acceleration of healing processes in the body. Many clinical studies have validated the effectiveness of meditation not only for physical healing and the diminution of anxiety, but for the improvement of the quality of life. The sense of happiness and inner contentment has been correlated to the capacity to meditate and sustain states of serenity and stillness. But for the Sat Yogi, meditation implies a great deal more than that.
