...These are beliefs. I am a believer. You are a skeptic or a non-believer.

Dear Shri Nacchinarkiniyan, I made my comment only because your account of Mayandi was presented as fact. Now, you have confirmed it is only your belief. I will leave it at that.

.... They proved the therapeutic value of Meditation. I remember the skeptism with which many of the original researches were received. How much of scorn was poured. Now this has become a fact.

So much for the so called Scientific reasoning.

I don't know what kind of scorn you are talking about. Please understand that it took scientfic process to establish any benefit meditation may offer. It is not just asserted. Also, scientific process is all about seeking the truth and is not about clinging to past beliefs. They are never shy about owning up to any mistakes. The process of observation and verification is never ending. No theory is accepted unless it is established and verified. That is what scientific reasoning is.

Cheers!
