WHY MEDITATION IS NECESSARY!
Please read below from a Medical and scientific Prospective.
From the time of our birth till death the heart works continuously.
Everyday, the heart pumps 7000 litres of blood, of which 70% blood is pumped to the brain and the remaining 30% to rest of the body.
The blood is pumped through veins/arteries which are about more than 70,000 km long.
The strength required to pump the blood up to 42ft high and the weight of 1 tonne is generated by the heart everyday through its work.
We take rest when we are tired but if the heart takes rest for 4-5 mins, we would have to rest forever.
*How does the heart work so efficiently and effectively?*
The heart works effectively, because it follows a discipline. In normal conditions, the heart takes 0.3 secs to contract (systole) and 0.5 secs to relax (diastole). So 0.3+0.5=0.8 secs are required by the heart to complete one beat (1 cardiac cycle).That means *in 1 min, the heart beats 72 times which is considered as a normal heart beat.*
During the relaxing phase of 0.5 secs, the impure blood travels through the lungs and becomes 100 % pure.
In some stressful conditions the body demands more blood in less time and in this situation the heart reduces the relaxing period of 0.5 secs to 0.4 secs. In this case, the heart beats 82 times in 1 min and only 80% of blood gets purified.
On more and more demand, the relaxing time is further reduced to 0.3 secs, then only 60% of blood is purified.
Thus 20-40% of impure blood is pumped in the veins/ arteries. These impure components (cholesterol/lipid) get deposited on walls of the arteries/veins and thus the elastic nature of the veins and the arteries is lost. In this way, they become plastic in nature.
After some time, due to the above conditions the veins/arteries become rigid. Now if a blood clot travels through the veins/arteries (which in normal conditions get easily passed away due to the elastic nature earlier) get blocked and resists blood flow in that area. This results in a blockage which further results in a *Heart Attack.*
From the above discussion, we can easily realise that the main reason for the heart problems is the increase demand of blood by the brain and body.
When the activity of the brain is stimulated, it demands more amount of blood, than that of normal conditions.
*To stimulate the activity of the brain, 25-30% of the diet we take is responsible, whereas the remaining 70-75% is due to overthinking, emotions, attitude, memory and other processes of the brain.*
So, those who want to keep their heart working effectively for a long period of time, should protect themselves from - worry, anger, sadness, negative emotions, sensitive behavior, stress and a constant fast paced life.
To protect ourselves from the above few areas, *there is no MEDICATION available!*
So, the only option is
*MEDITATION*.
It's said that: *SPIRITUAL HEALING IS ONLY THE TRUE HEALING*
Sikhs meditate through the Naam mantra of Vaheguroo to conquer their minds desires, emotions, pressures and stresses.
Guru Arjun Dev Ji Says, "Giaan a(n)jan naam bi(n)jan bheae sagal seegaaraa."
I have applied the healing ointment of spiritual wisdom to my eyes (mind); meditation on the Naam mantra, the Name of the Lord, is my food. These are all my decorations.
Vaheguroo!
