Sahaja Yoga translates as 'Spontaneous Yoga' and is regarded as a form of 'yoga' and 'meditation' that can be easily achieved and can be practised everyday if desired as it does not involve any physical stretches.True meditation is experiencing a state of mental silence or 'thoughtless awareness' in which one is fully alert and aware but free of the unnecessary thoughts or worries that lead to many of life's day to day stresses. This state of silence occurs spontaneously when one learns how to focus on the experience of the present moment, leading to a state of peace and calm.Through a simple process, known as Self-Realisation (kundalini awakening), this meditative state can be quickly established, maintained and, most importantly, enjoyed! Sahaja Yoga defines meditation as a state where you are completely conscious, but at the same time completely without thought (thoughtless awareness).
