What is difference between Self-hypnosis & meditation…?
The way is almost same but destinations are different. Self mediation has got short term and temporary effects or gains. It improves some the spychological and physiological aspects. Like, change in some habit, weight loss, memory improvement, sound sleep etc. But do not change a personality as a whole. Self hypnosis is supposed to be scientific but meditation is not accepted yet as a science. But, the main thing here I feel is meditation changes a person entirely and for ever. Its goal is great and that to GOD. Path of self hypnosis is easy as compared to meditation. It invoves counting numbers or listening music. Path of medicine has many prongs. Navavidha bhakti and many other things are involved. It is very hard and tedious path. But when a seeker starts travelling on it he is restless till he gets his final goal. He says, I will not retire from it for many births till I get the goal, such a patience is born in his self. That is what I feel. Thanks for a very good question. Jai Shr
