in the world, he started providing meditation classes.
According to him, every person should experience the ecstasy and bliss of meditation and free
oneself from the sufferings of anger, greed, attachment and delusions of the physical world.
THREE LAWS OF
MEDITATION
3. Three laws of meditation by SadhakAnshit
First law: When we are with the normal, natural, simple, easy, soft, tender, shallow, tranquil,
peaceful flow of the breath… the mind becomes empty.
Secondlaw: When the mind is empty, huge amount of cosmic energy floods into the physical
body.. into the physical-ness.
Third law: When sufficient amount of cosmic energy enters the physical body.. the result is a
reasonable amount of activation of the third-eye.
ORGANIZATION
The focus of Student and Youth Welfare Association (SAYWA) was to give a new direction to
the Youth of the society. However, as time passed by, the horizon was broadened to include
empowerment and uplifting of poor children by providing them free education.
By connecting SAYWA with Shiva Yog Sansthan, many programs of Yoga and Meditation
have been performed in various places of the country. The aim is to bring back into daily lives,
the old tradition of meditation which is all the more relevant in the present scenario. We have
always been a land of seekers and the aim is to bring back that aspect in its effervescence.
SHIVA YOGA
He started the Shiva Yoga Center with to ensure that every person coming here should
experience ones inner strength through yoga and meditation. This is a powerful place designed
for one to explore the inner aspects and continue the journey through the fourmain paths of
yoga - Knowledge(Gyan Yoga) , Action (Karma Yoga), Energy (Kriya Yoga) and Devotion
(Bhakti Yoga).
4. HIS MISSON
“His sole mission of creating intense awareness amongst all individuals … about the
science of meditation … and its primary role in providing physical, mental and
intellectual health and well-being to all”.
Sadhak Anshit is a dynamic personality and known worldwide as a meditation learner and
teacher. He is sharing his experiences with youth of India. People from all walks of life are
visiting him for their different problems. Sadhak Anshit's message to all humanity is –
“humans have a lot of potential, just this potentiality has to be realized within….a man
can do anything and meditation is the key.”
5. Practicing meditation according to the spiritual experiences and spiritual knowledge of the Sadhak Anshit ,
is very simple, and the difficulty is not in the same. It is very easy. Anyone can start practicing Anapanasati
meditation directly, only to be cautious of her general breathing - questionnaire.
In Pali language,
'An' means breathing
'Apan' means breathing.
'Sati' means 'to be together'
Gautam Buddha taught this method of meditation thousands of years ago. We breathe all of us, but we are not
conscious of this action. In 'Anapanasati', a person needs to keep his complete focus and awareness on his
normal respiratory process. It is necessary that we keep our eye on consciousness consciously, the operation of
breath should be moving naturally. Do not stop breathing in any form, nor do it keep on sticking. We do not have
to try to bring any kind of change in its speed on our part. When the mind starts running around, it should
immediately stop the thoughts and bring the meditation on the normal rhythm of breath. Leaving yourself
loosened should become an observer only.
While practicing Anapanasati, we can do two things together: to observe your breath and to do the other thing -
to let your consciousness expand ... to increase awareness. Being conscious of breath means not to let thoughts
control the mind. These thoughts only drag our energy and scatter them. That is why the cycle of thoughts
should be stopped with birth. Observation of breath means that we should not look at any of our physical senses
or thoughts in our form by affecting the rhythm of our breath, only look at it.
Sadhak Anshit explain that when the energy of the soul is expended by our troubled and eternal thoughts, then
our physical body becomes weak. In such a situation, there are various types of external attacks. In effect, a
person gets many diseases, old age comes and soon he becomes a victim of death. Those who do not refine
their mind, their mind remains unsteady. Just as a farm, which is not prepared for agriculture, is filled with
rubbish, in the same way an autocratic mind is filled with unwanted ideas. So in the beginning, meditation means
making the mind calm and unstable. Soon a deep resting stage is achieved. When the mind becomes empty
with thoughts then huge amount of global energy starts filling in the body. As we go into meditation, new intense
experience, The new scenes make us and we reunite with world-consciousness. We reach a world full of
surprises which are waiting for us. The more effort you make, the easier it becomes to get awareness.
To become Anapanasati meditator, there is no need to go to any ashram. Neither does he have to go to a holy
place or sacrifice his responsibilities. We can live our normal life and can see how the power of meditation
makes us better in every field. At the beginning it would be good to be meditated in the presence of senior
masters. Their energy level is high and energy flows from them towards those whose energy level is low. Once
we understand the way and expect no master or master attendance. Then we can practice it anytime, anywhere,
with our will. It also has no unpleasant side effects. We can also evaluate our progress by sharing our
experiences with senior mediapersons. It is art, then the benefits on the old deliver to everyone.
This meditation is a great gift that can give your life to your own efforts. 'Spiritual health' is a very important and
integral part of our total health, which every person needs. Anapasansati meditation meets this requirement.
Thus, if 'spiritual health' is rooted then 'physical health' is its fruit. By meditation, one can understand the true
reason behind his physical ailments.
According to the instructions of the participants, keep awake with breath, will become the center of awareness
within you ... Then your body will become the universe.
7. The Sutra of the Lotus Flower
The Sutra of the Lotus Flower of the Wonderful Dharma, popularly known as the Lotus Sutra, is revered by
millions of Buddhists as containing the core and culmination of the Buddha's teaching. Together with the two
shorter sutras that traditionally accompany it, Innumerable Meanings and Meditation on the Bodhisattva
Universal Virtue, it is one of the most important scriptures of Mahayana Buddhism and indeed one of the major
documents of world religion.
The Lotus Sutra consists of a series of sermons delivered by the Buddha toward the end of his 45-year teaching
ministry before a great multitude of disciples and countless others. The setting and scope are cosmic, but the
sermons themselves, presented in both prose and verse, are replete with parables and graphic anecdotes.
At the heart of the sutra are three major concepts of Mahayana Buddhism:
All sentient beings can attain perfect enlightenment - that is, buddhahood - and nothing less than this is the
appropriate final goal of believers;
The Buddha is eternal, having existed from the infinite past and appearing in many forms throughout the ages to
guide and succor beings through the teaching of the Wonderful Dharma; and
The noblest form of Buddhist practice is the way of the bodhisattvas, those who devote themselves to attaining
enlightenment not only for themselves but for all sentient beings.
The Sutra of Innumerable Meanings records the sermon preached by the Buddha to a host of bodhisattvas
immediately preceding the delivery of the Lotus Sutra. Constituting an introduction to the central sutra, the
shorter scripture is traditionally known as the "opening sutra." The Sutra of Meditation on the Bodhisattva
Universal Virtue, supposed to have been delivered following the Lotus Sutra, establishes the way of repentance
as the practice of the spirit of the Lotus Sutra. Being an epilogue to the main scripture, it is called the "closing
sutra," while because of its theme it is also known as the "sutra of repentance."
Sadhak Anshit has embraced the philosophy and ideals in the Lotus Sutra and the teachings that are basic to
the whole of Buddhism:
The Four Noble Truths
The Twelve Causes
The Three Seals of the Dharma
The Eightfold Path
The Six Perfections
That is because, through study and actual practice of the Buddha's teachings, Founder Sadhak Anshit realized
that the basic teachings of Buddhism and the profound philosophy and high ideals of the Lotus Sutra are the
complementary halves of a single truth. In short, in the Lotus Sutra, philosophy, ideals, and the practical
teachings of Buddhism are perfectly integrated.
Further, Sadhak Anshit believes that the integral essence of the Lotus Sutra is so universal and practical that it
is in fact common to all the world's religions and is relevant for people everywhere. Because the Lotus Sutra is a
scripture that can lead all humankind from division to unity, from discord to harmony, from conflict to peace,
Sadhak Anshit reveres it as the basic scripture in which to have faith.
8. Practicing Mindfulness meditation according to the spiritual experiences and spiritual knowledge of the Sadhak
Anshit
How to Do It
Mindfulness meditation practice couldn’t be simpler: take a good seat, pay attention to the breath, and when
your attention wanders, return. By following these simple steps, you can get to know yourself up close and
personal.
Find a good spot in your home or apartment, ideally where there isn’t too much clutter and you can find some
quiet. Leave the lights on or sit in natural light. You can even sit outside if you like, but choose a place with little
distraction.
At the outset, it helps to set an amount of time you’re going to “practice” for. Otherwise, you may obsess about
deciding when to stop. If you’re just beginning, it can help to choose a short time, such as five or ten minutes.
Eventually you can build up to twice as long, then maybe up to 45 minutes or an hour. Use a kitchen timer or the
timer on your phone. Many people do a session in the morning and in the evening, or one or the other. If you
feel your life is busy and you have little time, doing some is better than doing none. When you get a little space
and time, you can do a bit more.
How to Sit
Here’s a posture practice that can be used as the beginning stage of a period of meditation practice or simply as
something to do for a minute, maybe to stabilize yourself and find a moment of relaxation before going back into
the fray. If you have injuries or other physical difficulties, you can modify this to suit your situation.
(1) Take your seat. Whatever you’re sitting on—a chair, a meditation cushion, a park bench—find a spot that
gives you a stable, solid seat, not perching or hanging back.

9. (2) Notice what your legs are doing. If on a cushion on the floor, cross your legs comfortably in front of you. (If
you already do some kind of seated yoga posture, go ahead.) If on a chair, it’s good if the bottoms of your feet
are touching the floor.
(3) Straighten—but don’t stiffen— your upper body. The spine has natural curvature. Let it be there. Your head
and shoulders can comfortably rest on top of your vertebrae.
(4) Situate your upper arms parallel to your upper body. Then let your hands drop onto the tops of your legs.
With your upper arms at your sides, your hands will land in the right spot. Too far forward will make you hunch.
Too far back will make you stiff. You’re tuning the strings of your body—not too tight and not too loose.
(5) Drop your chin a little and let your gaze fall gently downward. You may let your eyelids lower. If you feel the
need, you may lower them completely, but it’s not necessary to close your eyes when meditating. You can
simply let what appears before your eyes be there without focusing on it.
(6) Be there for a few moments. Relax. Bring your attention to your breath or the sensations in your body.
(7) Feel your breath—or some say “follow” it—as it goes out and as it goes in. (Some versions of this practice
put more emphasis on the outbreath, and for the inbreath you simply leave a spacious pause.) Either way, draw
your attention to the physical sensation of breathing: the air moving through your nose or mouth, the rising and
falling of your belly, or your chest. Choose your focal point, and with each breath, you can mentally note
“breathing in” and “breathing out.”
(8) Inevitably, your attention will leave the breath and wander to other places. Don’t worry. There’s no need to
block or eliminate thinking. When you get around to noticing your mind wandering—in a few seconds, a minute,
five minutes—just gently return your attention to the breath.
(9) Practice pausing before making any physical adjustments, such as moving your body or scratching an itch.
With intention, shift at a moment you choose, allowing space between what you experience and what you
choose to do.
(10) You may find your mind wandering constantly—that’s normal, too. Instead of wrestling with or engaging with
those thoughts as much, practice observing without needing to react. Just sit and pay attention. As hard as it is
to maintain, that’s all there is. Come back over and over again without judgment or expectation.
(11) When you’re ready, gently lift your gaze (if your eyes are closed, open them). Take a moment and notice
any sounds in the environment. Notice how your body feels right now. Notice your thoughts and emotions.
Pausing for a moment, decide how you’d like to continue on with your day.
That’s it. That’s the practice. It’s often been said that it’s very simple, but it’s not necessarily easy. The work is to
just keep doing it. Results will accrue.
