New Delhi [India], October 17: The modern world is facing a great no. of problems because of the dire economic ( unemployment) and environmental crises, unprecedented psychologically stressful conditions, an alarming increase in suicide and divorce cases, depressing corporate target-oriented jobs, loneliness in lives after covid, incompatible relations, bad habits of alcoholic and drug addiction. On the social front, the lack of communal harmony and colossal pendency of 2.5 crores of court cases, health hazards, and a high rate of crime have negatively affected the lives of the masses in India and abroad. In such a bleak scenario, a new phenomenon emerges, i.e., social media.
Narender Kumar Malhotra, a motivational speaker, illuminates this new dimension of meditation, which is social meditation or societal meditation.
He explains: –
- What is the literal meaning of the word meditation?
- What is Spiritual Meditation
- What is the present and prevalent notion of Social Meditation
- What is Social Meditation: The vision of Narender Kumar Malhotra, A Motivational Speaker
The word meditation originates from the Latin word mediatum, which simply means to think over, to ponder upon or to focus on a thing or an idea, but this word has been monopolised by the spiritualists and as a result of which, the word meditation is largely used in the sense of spiritual meditation.
Malhotra now explains what spiritual meditation is. It is a device for the upliftment of a simple human soul up to divine heights, which enables the practitioner to have a body-mind balance, to have a transcendental vision, to develop mindfulness to transgress limiting personal, social and communal beliefs and to reach a state of mind of pure consciousness, super consciousness and collective consciousness which culminates in universal consciousness. Such a state of mind brings about a complete self-transformation in the meditation practitioner, enabling him to enjoy a life full of calmness, relaxation and blissfulness. He becomes one with God and surrenders completely before the will of the Divinity.
Hereinafter, Narender Malhotra explains the present and the prevalent notion of social meditation, which means to do meditational practices in social groups with like-minded people to bring about better health and well-being and to bring about positive changes in their cognitional, emotional and social behaviour. Their main emphasis is on the spiritual upliftment of others through group meditation. Some spiritual-cum-social meditational groups have also worked effectively for the removal of bad habits of alcoholism, drug addiction and smoking.
Now Narender Malhotra enunciates his concept, perspective and vision of social and societal meditation. His vision of this dimension of social meditation is far wider, far more holistic, all-inclusive, all-encompassing and all-pervasive.
First, he describes the plethora of problems with their mammoth size before society and the world, which he wants to correct and remove with his concept of social or societal meditation. These sins and problems are as follows;
Alarming increase in the number of divorce cases in India and abroad resulting in the disastrous effects on family lives by its fast disintegration. This has caused the problems of drug addiction, smoking, and alcoholism in all sections of society irrespective of age and nationalities across the world.
Another hazardous problem is a formidable increased in the number of suicide cases among students, unemployed youths, security personnels, homemakers and corporate employees due to failures and fiascoes in their respective fields due to incompetencies and unresponsiveness of the administrative and the political systems of India and abroad.
Another horrible problem is the pendency of 2.5 crores of cases in the judicial courts of India. This has affected almost every family resulting in frustrations, dejections and desperations.
