Meditation is more science than a religious ritual or practice.
Meditation has no affiliation with any documented or undocumented religions. It also does not endorse any God, sect, or ritualistic behaviors.
It is an experiment you do on yourselves. As you grow further in your practice, you start observing and realizing insights into your daily life.
You gain insights into your mundane/natural self. You also become aware of your mind and body. You understand the relationship between them.
This process continues until you dig deeper and deeper. You peel off all the layers from insight to insight like a Matryoshka doll.
You keep going from gross insights to subtler and subtler insights until you realize the ultimate truth.
As all experiments, you have to be careful, consistent and diligent, use the right tools and techniques, sometimes ask questions if you are stuck somewhere. And all the help is available right here and now.
The Nobel Eightfold Path leads to liberation from all the bondages. I wish peace, love and compassion to all mankind and to all the creatures that cohabitate this planet and the universe with us.
