Download or read book Meditation for Health Healing and Happiness written by Dr. Suresh Kumar Agarwal and published by Academic Guru Publishing House. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The many advantages of meditation stem from the fact that, with practice, you may learn to control your feelings and reject negative judgements about them. Practitioners of this meditation practice argue that negative judgments about one’s emotions are the real source of pain, not the feelings themselves. Meditation helps to alleviate the retention effect caused by the suppression of the emotion. The history of meditation dates back thousands of years. The original purpose of meditation was to gain a more profound comprehension of the mysterious and divine energies at work in all of existence. These days, many people turn to meditation as a means of winding down and de-stressing. Mind-body complementary medicine includes meditation. Both your mental and physical health may benefit from the serenity and equilibrium that can be attained through regular meditation practice. The positive effects of meditation are not temporary. Practicing meditation may make daily tasks easier and perhaps aid in the treatment of certain diseases. The primary purpose of meditation is to take one’s attention off of the mundane concerns of daily life, such as those associated with job, family, money, and one’s “to-do list” for the day. There is an infinite variety of methods for doing this.

Download or read book The Future of Christian Mission in India written by Augustine Kanjamala and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial missionaries, both Catholic and Protestant, arrived in India with the grandiose vision of converting the pagans because, like St. Peter (Acts 4:12) and most of the church fathers, they honestly believed that there is no salvation outside the church (extra ecclesiam nulla salus). At the end of the "great Protestant century," however, Christians made up less than 3 percent of the population in India, and the hope of the missionary was nearly shattered. But if one looks at mission in India qualitatively rather than quantitatively, one sees a number of positive outcomes. Missionaries in India, particularly Protestant missionaries espousing the social gospel, in collaboration with a few British evangelical administrators, dared to challenge numerous social evils and even began to eradicate them. The scientific and liberal English education began to enlighten and transform the Indian mindset. Converts belonging to the upper caste, although small in number, laid the foundation stone of Indian theology and an inculturated church using Indian genius. The end of colonialism in India coincided with the painful death of colonial mission theology. Now, the power of the Word of God, extricated from political power, is slowly and peacefully gaining ground, like the mustard seed of the parable. A paradigm shift from the ecclesio-centric mission to missio Dei offers reason for further optimism. In short, the future of mission in India is as bright as the kingdom of God. In today's new context, theologians, despite objections from some quarters, are struggling to discover the Asian face of Jesus, disfigured by the Greco-Roman Church. And the missionary is challenged to become a living Bible that, undoubtedly, everyone will read.
