Dhyana means «Meditation» in Sanskrit and is considered one of the eight classical stages of yoga (Raja Yoga, Patanjali).

For Atman (Self) alone is the friend of self, and Self alone is the enemy of self Bhagavad Gita 6-5

Chapter 6- Dhyana Yoga of the Bhagavad Gita, teaches us the characteristics of this path of Yoga Philosophy, where Sri Krishna tells Arjuna:

«Living in solitude, sober in his food, restricted in speech, body and mind, always absorbed in Dhyana Yoga (meditation and concentration), anchored in dispassion, without pride, violence, arrogance, lust, anger, possession, having abandoned all sense of “Mine” and at peace with himself, he is in a position to become one with Brahman» Bhagavad Gita 18 52-53.

This path is ideal for the mystic.

Bhagavad Gita 6-19. Stop thinking with Yoga (Philosophy)

Better than concentration is the renunciation of the fruit of all action. Bhagavad Gita 12-12

Raja Yoga was created in the 16th century by Swami Swatmarama, creator of Hatha Yoga (Hatha-ioga-pradípika), integrating Raja Yoga and tantric principles. If the only objective of Hatha Yoga is physical excellence, it can even slow down and prevent our personal growth.

For Swami Vivekananda, Raja Yoga fits with the four paths of yoga

«It adapts to any researcher, believer or non-believer, being the true instrument of religious research. As each science has its particular method of investigation, this Raja Yoga is the method of religion. The main parts are Pranayama, concentration and meditation. For those who believe in God, a symbolic name, such as OM, or other sacred words received from a guru, will be of great help. OM is the greatest, that is, the Absolute. Meditating on the meaning of these holy names while repeating them is the main practice.» Swami Vivekananda.
