The word “Meditation” is used to describe a number of different uses of the mind, from contemplation and concentration to devotion and chanting. It may probably be derived from the same root as the Latin word “Mederi” meaning “to heal”. Meditation can certainly be looked on as a healing process, emotionally, mentally, and physically too.
The meditative state is the highest state of existence. It is indispensable for the spiritual life as breathing is for the physical. Devoid of meditation, one is like a blind man in a world of light and color and loveliness.
