I don’t dismiss any method taught by gurus. But I comment only on ones I practiced. TM mantra is designed to self-dissolve & leave hyper-alert state WITHOUT content. Tremendous creative insights flow spontaneously from para-level, but don’t ruin it with conceptual intervention.
Prana-based techniques also good. But are less deep as they are at energy level, but they can LEAD one to deeper pasyanti-level and eventually even beyond.
Japa and all Vaikhari-level/loud sound like Bhajans are good starting point especially when emotionally disturbed. Help calm the cognitive machinery to be able to start other practices.
Tantra is a whole encyclopedia of techniques using the senses to go beyond the senses. Similar level as prana techniques. Yoga Nidra also belongs to this level.
In my case I have a foundational practice & on top of that I add more based on my situation at a given time. Personalized & customized by the “guru within” who was installed by my bodily-guru before leaving the body nearly 2 decades ago.
I never skip a chance to learn something new from any and every guru I meet.
Nidhishyasana taught by my guru WITHOUT THEORY. Just practice. Only much later I realized that it was nidhidhyasana. How fortunate I have been. I rarely discuss these things publicly bcause the ppl lack the foundation to understand & insult it as superficial stuff.🙏
Samaj today depleted of qualities, led by charlatans including social media, politics, so-called activists, etc. We are headed for big trouble. I am terribly sad for our youth - betrayed by the leaders.🙏

My forthcoming book has 900 pages of research exposing this hypocrisy. The ideas, individuals & institutions. Ruining the world in the name of Social Justice. Where is the nest breeding these snakes? Detailed answer is provided.
Nonsense! Hindu “activists” clamoring limelight jump to endorse without basic due diligence.
FACT: Most Hindu chaplains in US colleges refuse to defend Hinduism against Academic Hinduphobia. Playing both sides. Make them respond to 5 Questions. opindia.com/2022/05/hindu-…
Q1: Do you believe there is Hinduphobia in the scholarship of Wendy Doniger, Sheldon Pollock, Thomas Blom Hansen, Audrey Truschke, and numerous others? Have you spoken up against this?
Q2: Do you believe the Aryan Invasion/Migration Theory is false? Have you stood up against it?
