I once watched a video named Spiritual Reality made by Indian masters years ago. In a section of this video, it introduces and explains the great healing efforts that meditation contributes to the physic body. I believe it is true, but when I communicate with practitioners of meditation, I find out a truth that not all the practitioners are free from physical disorders, and the percentage of meditation practitioners who's got physical disorders is not low, some of them even carry the physical problems for years. After meditation for years, the physical problems are still there. So I came out that there must be something wrong. So I digged into this field and also compared the breath-focused method of meditation with the meditative technique from ancient China and I find out the difference and the most possible reason to this question.
The key point as to whether one person have physical disorders or not is the energy level WITHIN the body. (To better understand, let's bring two conceptions: body energy and cosmic energy.).The way that meditation increase the energy level within the body is to adsorb energy from universe. After research and with experience of myself and others, I came to know that this is true. It can be done. A person is able to adsorb cosmic energy into their body, BUT, only a few person is able to actually connect with cosmic energy and actually adsorb them into their body and further clear the physical disorders, the percentage is very small, and it can be done only when this person gets into the Samadhi state or similar (I'm not quite sure the name of that state in English), even though, sometimes, the time in that state is too short and not stable. That could be the main reason why a large number of breath-focused meditation practioners are still with physical problems after years of meditation, simply because they are not able to connect and adsorb the cosmic energy into their body.
On the contrary, the meditative technique from ancient China starts from increasing the body energy in the first place, and then, when the energy within the body become strong enough clearing all the physical disorders, it will be much easier for a person to actually connect with cosmic energy and go further as the same way as meditation(for example, the Astral travel), cause a sound physical and energy basis has already been established.
Simply speaking, breath-focused meditation starts aiming at a comparatively higher goal, taking longer time and less achievable, and the meditative technique from ancient China starts aiming at a comparatively lower or easier achieving goal which is more suitable for common people, and both ways leads to the same destination.
So what is the corelation between meditation and physical body? Is it a deeper meditation leads to a better physical body, or is it a better physical body leads to a deeper meditation? which way?
welcome to the discussion.
