Is the presence of master necessary for meditation?
Q : Is meditation strictly to be conducted under the direct guidance of a living master or spiritual sage? Your correct guidance in this matter to an amateur like me would be deeply appreciated

AnswerDear Sohrab, in the beginning you can use the guided CDs. In this case, you can use my CDs and begin with meditation and definitely meeting the master will help. If not me, then anyone else whomsoever you chose - be with that master for some time. Having satsang really helps us. But no doubt, in the beginning you can easily follow the methods in recorded format; you can use either of those. Do it everyday and you will begin to enjoy it; I am sure of it. And then maybe someday, meet a master, so that you can grow more.Gurumaa
