Meditation and Its Methods brings together Swami Vivekananda's clearest, most practical teachings on the subject of meditation, drawn from his writings, lectures, and conversations. More than a guide to technique, this book is a call to inner discipline and direct experience. Vivekananda explores the philosophical foundations of meditation from both the Raja-Yoga and Vedanta traditions, urging readers to go beyond mere rituals and beliefs toward a living, transformative spiritual practice.

What makes this book enduring is not just its clarity, but its insistence that meditation is not a retreat from life-it is a deeper engagement with it. Swami Vivekananda offers not mysticism for its own sake, but a path of strength, self-mastery, and freedom. For anyone seeking to train the mind. purify the heart, and understand the Self, this is a work of both challenge and illumination.
