How Meditation is Misunderstood in the West

In the West, meditation is often presented as a wellness tool: a way to reduce stress, calm the nervous system, balance hormones, or improve focus. While these can be beautiful outcomes, they are only side effects, not the true purpose.In the great Vedic and Yogic traditions, meditation was never meant simply to make us feel better — it was meant to wake us up.Meditation is not designed to make us comfortable.It is designed to make us conscious.In this teaching, I share a deeper understanding of meditation through the lens of lineage, direct experience, and spiritual practice — exploring the journey from the conditioned self to the infinite Self, from restless mind to the Divine within.Website: http://www.pureishvari.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/pureishvari Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pureishvari Linktree: https://linktr.ee/pureishvari
