The book provides an unbiased and scientific overview of several techniques, including self-hypnosis, Reiki, wish fulfilment techniques, and stress-reduction advice. The book presents concisely the knowledge on meditation that the author, over the course of 20 years, acquired from studying numerous scriptures and conversing with many spiritual masters. The book describes principles, procedures, and benefits of several routes, including rajyoga, VI passana, bhakti yoga, shakti yoga, awareness meditation, and mindfulness meditation, among others. It also clarifies scientifically and objectively the extremely loosely used term "meditation." This book's goal is to share what several systems preach, not to elaborate on any one route or meditation practise.
