I quote “When the veil between worlds thins, and meditation becomes one hundred times more powerful.”

But I am astonished because I have not seen any Hindu who has taken benefit of this auspicious occasion to meditate and get awakened!

Instead i find most of them regurgitating the same at different platforms just like you did here.

Have you really got benefitted by 100x more intense meditation on any Shivratri?

We share from our experiences and what you shared can be written by AI upon asking a question.

I found that Christian’s and Muslim people are awakened in more %age spiritually as compared to Hindu because they could discover new ideas and invent new things.

There is a direct relation between the two.

I quote “He is the Destroyer and Restorer, essential to the cosmic cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction. Without his cleansing force, renewal would be impossible. This is a truth that applies as much to our inner lives as to the universe itself.

He is both ascetic and sensual, embodying seemingly contradictory qualities that remind us humans need not fragment ourselves into either/or. We can contain depths that appear paradoxical on the surface yet form a complete whole.

As Adiyogi, the first yogi, he sits in meditation on Mount Kailash, patron of yoga, meditation, and arts. His discipline invites us to journey inward rather than seek fulfillment in the external world.”

Shiva is formless energy, so Shiva need not have to meditate! It is for us human beings.

In Shiva Sutra a yogi has written about methods to know reality within and it could be understood by Buddha some 2500 (500BC) years ago!

Hindu people could not understood anything from it. Then in 1100AD a mystic Gorakhnath discovered 112 meditations from same book, taking hint from Buddha.

So even after Buddha’s discovery no Hindu could discover even a single meditation from that book for 1800 years! This Gorakhnath was also mocked by Hindu people while he was living!

Now Hindus are busy showing Shiva as Meditating in Himalaya because even after throwing out Buddhism their motives of idol worship and chanting as means of awakening are not fulfilled, so they accepted Buddha as their Avatar and Shiva is now Meditating!

So you are right in saying “without the cleansing force renewal is not possible” and this time cleansing of Hindu religion is going on because I quote “His discipline invites us to journey inward rather than seek fulfillment in the external world.” and instead of taking even one step in inward journey these Hindu people wish to rule over the world (external world) without fighting a war on their on land! (Chinese encroachment)
