The Govt. of Telangana is not only emphasising on the adopting meditation as the means for holistic health but also to keep the ancient wisdom of India alive through meditative practices. Heartfulness is supporting the initiative by applying the ancient technique of Pranahuti or Divine energy-transmission for Heartfulness meditation. The benefits of Heartfulness meditation as backed by science are multifarious which include improving focus, the ability to make right decisions, improve cognitive abilities in students, achieve the highest human potential; and promote holistic health – mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health, and above all promote equanimity for sustainable future.

Rev Daaji – Guide of Heartfulness & President of Shri Ram Chandra Mission said, “We are very happy to support the Govt. of Telangana in this meditation initiative this World Meditation Day. Only through meditation can humanity reach Divinity. We are talking about balancing both the spiritual and materials aspects of life and achieving the highest level of consciousness. A collective consciousness is possible through tackling thought-pollution which I hope is integrated as the 18^th UNSDG.”
