MEDITATION TECHNIQUE

An important method of meditation, which he emphasised and taught to his disciples, was Ajapa or rhythmic mental repetition of the Mantra (Word) or the name of God. Several saints and Masters in the past have suggested mental repetition of God's name with breathing. The western orthodox Christian spiritual literature declared that one must learn to call upon His name more often than breathing at all times in all places in every kind of occupation. Ceaseless prayer is to remember God always,whether a man is conversing, sitting down, walking, making something, or eating:

 Even a moment of separation is unbearable when we talk it is oneness talking which indeed has become all this, not so obvious blissful is this realisation simultaneous! (After Sharmad, the mystic) 

"Who can be able," Swamiji Maharaj asked, "to utilise or even understand such message in practical life without the help of a living Guru in whom the disciple can repose faith?".Swamiji taught the technique of Ajapa to such of his disciples who were fit enough to receive it and was insisting that they should practice it for twenty-four hours a day or as long as practicable. He had mastered the technique himself by practising (for a long time while he was in the cave) regulation of the breath current by fixing undivided attention on it irrespective of outward engagements after he had once observed a woman dancing with a water pot placed on her head to various tunes and rhythms. Thus having achieved the success he told his aspirants how to set attention on the Mantra linked to thebreathing rhythm, even when they attended to their many concerns. "How otherwise, "he asked "is it possible to visualise or practice the truth in tune with Sri Krishna's commands in the Bhagavadgeeta:

At all times remember me and fight (VIII-7) or, Therefore at all times, o Partha, be thou established in yoga? (VIII-27)
