Yogasana and pranayama does not suit some people.This is because each person body composition is different. The mental level of the mind is also not similar. Some peoples mind is so fickle that they are not able to meditate. In this situation, we should once again resort to anekantic view. We should measure every person independently. Understand them as different individuals.Those who cannot do meditation, make them do some chanting (jaap). Make them practice breath control. Make them practice the vibration sounds.The one who practices brahamari pranyama gradually drifts into meditation. Sitting in one posture, the practitioner makes the sound of a bee for five, ten or fifteen minutes and slowly drifts into a state of meditation. For everybody the same solution does not work.One cannot cling to just one thing. All the dogmatism and persistent assaults against truth are result of looking at only one aspect.
