Regulation of the Mind through Heartfulness Meditation – Dr. Dashora

Udaipur,As part of the week-long celebration of International Yoga Day, a special lecture on “Mental Health and Meditation” was organized today at the Yoga Centre of Mohanlal Sukhadia University. The keynote address was delivered by Dr. Rakesh Dashora, Center Coordinator of the Heartfulness Institute, who emphasized the significance of meditative practices for mental well-being.

Dr. Dashora explained that regular practice of prana-based meditation as described in the scriptures helps in the regulation of the mind, ultimately promoting sound mental health. Highlighting the Heartfulness method, he stated that this heart-centered meditation, aided by Transmission (Pranahuti), gradually frees practitioners from inner disturbances such as anger, stress, and fear, allowing them to live a more balanced and harmonious life.

He also walked participants through various stages of Heartfulness meditation with a practical session for experiential learning.
