eg in Nepalese tradition one form of achieving the god state of Shiva is through rituals the involves meditation, yoga, bodly control, and special plants or brews. Also the Sadhu in India make use of plants to reach deep meditative states. I am 36 and I have started meditation 7 months ago. Meditation comes easly and I would do it all day long, almost feeling I knew before how to do it but sometime I feel uncertain between different options. Also what is advanced meditative practice? Thank you so so so much for what you are doing
