🪔 WORD BY WORD ANALYSIS
| Sanskrit Word | Traditional Meaning |
|---|---|
| Tatra (तत्र) | There / in that focal point established during Dharana |
| Pratyaya (प्रत्यय) | Cognition / consciousness / stream of mental awareness |

Think of water falling drop by drop — that is concentration (Dharana). But when honey or warm oil is poured in a smooth, continuous ribbon without interruption — that uninterrupted flow of mind is Dhyana (Meditation).
"Swami Vivekananda: "When the mind has been trained to remain fixed on a certain internal or external location, there comes to it the power of flowing in an unbroken current, as it were, towards that point. This state is called Dhyana. Dharana is the attempt; Dhyana is the effortless continuous stream.""
Continuous Breath Stream: Breathe gently. For 5 minutes, follow the breath from tip of nostrils to navel and back without a single thought breaking the stream.
Observe thoughts rising and fading like clouds without grasping or resisting.
