It is practised in numerous religions. We can see the roots in our Upanishads, which play a key role in Buddhism and Hinduism. It is also called ‘ dhyana’ in Hinduism and Buddhism and comes from the Sanskrit root “dhayi”, meaning to contemplate or meditate. Swami Vivekananda, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Pandit Ravishankar, and Sad Guru, etc. emphasis meditation. Meditation is considered a type of mind-body complementary medicine. Dyaan can produce a deeper understanding of the sacred and mystical forces of life. Dhyaan can create a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind.
