Abstract

Many Western countries, particularly the USA, have seen a rise in popularity of meditation. A growing body of research indicates that meditation has a number of health advantages, and these results have sparked interest in the medical community. The ancient Vedic texts from India's Vedic era contain descriptions of the meditation practice that was first developed there. Ayurveda (Science of Life), a comprehensive, all -natural health care system that originated in India during the pre-Vedic era, includes meditation as one of its therapeutic modalities. Today, a variety of different practices are collectively referred to as "meditation" in a loose sense. The real goal of meditation, according to Vedic science, is to establish a connection with one's innermost Self. Techniques that accomplish that goal serve the Meditation's neurological and physiological correlates have been studied in the past. In order to clarify the deeper underlying mechanism of the positive effects connected with meditation, this article describes the meditation process at a more fundamental level. A summary of the research on meditation's effects is provided.
