Benefits of Meditation.

"Meditation gives a lot of spiritual strength, peace, new vigour and vitality. It is the best mental tonic.Things which used to upset you easily will not touch you now. Occasions which would have made you irritable do not make you so now. You have gained strength, power and endurance, power of resistance, power to deal with troubles. Certain unkind words from other people which used to torment you no longer give you the trouble now. Even if you become irritable and show signs of anger, you are able now to compose yourself quickly. These are all the signs of your gaining mental strength and will-power. Meditation brings about all these beneficial results.

The more you meditate, the more the inner spiritual life you will have, wherein the mind and Indriyas do not play. You will be very close to the Source, Atman. You will enjoy the waves of bliss and peace.

All sensual objects will have no attraction for you now.The world will appear to you as a long dream. Jnana will dawn in you by constant, deep meditation"

Swami Sivananda

As meditation deepens, the hold of the mind and senses weakens. One feels closer to the Atman and experiences inner bliss independent of external conditions. Sense objects gradually lose their charm; the world appears dream-like.

This culminates in the truth declared:

देहाभिमाने गलिते विज्ञाते परमात्मनि ।

यत्र यत्र मनो याति तत्र तत्र समाधयः ॥

When identification with the body drops and the Supreme Self is realized, wherever the mind goes, there is samādhi.

Meditation removes body-identification, reveals the Self, and establishes one in natural inner absorption.

When Integrity Takes a Back Seat: Leadership Fails. In a large 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 the Chief Executive Officer (𝗖𝗘𝗢)—already having five official vehicles, including a Toyota Fortuner and SX4—initiated the acquisition of an additional Honda City car (6th vehicle) for his official use just two years before his retirement. There was no operational need, no functional gap, yet the process moved with astonishing velocity and precision. What followed exposes not just procedural negligence, but a deeper ethical breakdown in leadership. The Incident — Step by Step 1. Unjustified Requirement: Despite ample mobility resources, the CEO insisted on adding another car to his fleet. 2. Questionable Procurement Process: The vehicle was leased through a single tender nomination. On the same day: STE was issued, Offer was received, Technical recommendation was finalized. Within 48 hours, purchase/Contract order was placed — an efficiency seen only when ...

It is a brief but precious moment in the vast expanse of existence, meant for awakening to the truth of pure consciousness. Yet, the very instruments intended to illuminate this truth—the mind (manas), intellect (buddhi), and inner awareness (antahkarana)—are delicate and prone to distortion. Classical Indian philosophy identifies four fundamental defects that cloud understanding and perpetuate bondage: Bhrama (Delusion), Pramada (Heedlessness), Vipralipsa (Deceit), and Karnapaṭava (Inattention in Hearing). These are not mere abstract concepts; they are living tendencies that shape perception, judgment, and moral orientation. To recognize and remove them is to polish the mirror of the mind, allowing it to reflect the effulgence of the Self (Atman). The...

𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱: Pre-employment medical examinations are a vital safeguard in technically demanding industrial environments, ensuring that only medically fit candidates are inducted. These examinations are governed by detailed procedures designed to uphold transparency, accuracy, and professional integrity. Any deviation from these standards not only compromises the legitimacy of the recruitment process but also exposes the system to allegations of malpractice and weakens public trust. This case study concerns a complaint lodged by a selected candidate for the post of Operator-cum-Technician (OCT) in an integrated steel plant. The candidate alleged that he was declared “temporarily unfit” during the pre-employment medical examination because he refused to pay a bribe of Rs 1 lakh, demanded by the examining doctors. A vigilance inquiry into the Pre-employment Medical Examination Report, related documents, and statements of the medical personnel involved revealed several procedural ...
