Meditation FAQ
What are the benefits of meditation?
Meditation offers numerous benefits including reduced stress and anxiety, improved focus and concentration, better emotional regulation, enhanced self-awareness, improved sleep quality, and a deeper sense of inner peace. Regular practice can also lead to profound self-realisation and spiritual growth.
How long should I meditate each day?
Start with 10-15 minutes daily and gradually increase. Consistency matters more than duration. A regular 10-minute practice is more beneficial than occasional hour-long sessions. As Hemchandra Dutta teaches, the quality of your awareness matters more than the quantity of time.
What is meditation?
Meditation is a practice of focused awareness and observation. It involves turning attention inward to observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations without being controlled by them. While often associated with relaxation, meditation's deeper purpose is self-realisation — discovering who you truly are beyond the mind.
