Until you know what your mind is doing, you cannot control it. Meditation is one of the greatest ways to control your mind. Meditation is considered one of the most essential components in spirituality and used as a means to attain enlightenment. In this book, Swami Vivekananda, one of the most celebrated spiritual leaders of India, provides an introduction to meditation, its different methods, its power, and how it can bring enlightenment, happiness and peace to our lives. He delves deeper into the concept through two approaches—meditation through Raja Yoga by controlling the mind and through understanding the oneness of the soul and brahma as has been practiced in Vedanta philosophy. The simple yet effective techniques provided in this book can bring one balance of mind, body, and soul thereby bringing a sense of calmness and equanimity.

The book is certainly not a commentary on the Gita, in the traditional sense. But, what is available is indeed a treasure house of wisdom. Swamiji was a living embodiment of the Gita. According to him, the Gita was ‘practical Vedanta’. He demonstrated this through his life. Reading through the book is indeed a rewarding experience. One is in holy company, imbibing the words of one who is speaking from his heart. ... Just as Swamiji himself used to carry a copy of the Gita with him always, one cannot do better than carry a copy of this book with one always..." - from a Review in the Vedanta Kesari, November 2010, p.441 published by Sri Ramakrishna Math, Chennai.
