actually it is not necessary to meditate it is necessary to experience SATCHITANANDA inorder to be happier healthier more successfull

technically speaking very rigourously considered it isnt meditation but rather transcending which gives experience of satchitananda {{{Maharishi's "transcendental consciousness" or a roseby any other name: samadhi, nirvana, tao, "kingdom of heaven within" , "intimations of immortality" "ground of Being"}}}

the mind allready possesses the ability "natural tendency" to meditate or transcend; needed is a switch, a technique to set the initial conditions

according to 340 peer reviewed published studies the most effective technique is transcendental meditation(TM)

but since it isnt meditation but rather experience of satchitananda or "transcendental consciousness" [beyond time an dspace and causation] which is needed, so simple good luck or grace of god can deliver such

what new age [[[psychology]]] authors like Deepak or hufff'npuffpost are promoting is a western or secular version of Hinduism and Buddhism; these [[[bookbased rather than enlightened vedic- master-based]]] are only as effective as the condition in which India,Tibet,Burma or sri lanka finds itself

"only experience of Bliss [satchitananda] will make a man peacefull" the Maharishi, quantum physicist, sage, scientist of consciousness

peacefull also means free of or liberated from psychological turmoil ;only experience of Transcendence creates, sequentiallyunfolding ,a stressfree state of mind and body

people who havnt used drugs or alcohol can more easily understand theunfathomable

etc etc
