Date: 31st May 2025
On 31st May 2025, a deeply insightful session was held on the Sunya RedBelt Meditation Program, led by renowned life coach and meditation teacher Dr. Rajesh Savera. With his clear articulation and step-by-step approach, Dr. Savera offered a comprehensive introduction to the Sunya Meditation Path, focusing on the RedBelt—the first and most vital stage in the seven-belt progression.
Why is Meditation Important in Today’s Life?
Dr. Rajesh Savera opened the session by addressing a key question: Why is meditation essential in modern life? Beyond just a method for stress relief, he emphasized that meditation (Dhyana) is a way to cultivate awareness, balance, and clarity. Unlike simply sitting alone, Dhyana is a conscious and structured practice where thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations are observed without judgment.
This form of meditation introduces the practitioner to three core pillars: Mindfulness in daily life, Ethical living through discipline, and Ongoing self-observation.
Understanding the Seven Belts of Sunya Meditation
Dr. Rajesh Savera outlined the Seven Belts of the Sunya RedBelt Meditation Program, which represent progressive stages in one’s journey of awareness and insight:
- Red Belt – The gateway to awareness
- Orange Belt
- Yellow Belt
- Green Belt
- Blue Belt
- Indigo Belt
- White Belt
Each belt signifies a higher level of observation, detachment, and understanding. The RedBelt, being the entry point, holds a special place in the path.
RedBelt: The Gateway to Awareness
At the RedBelt stage, the focus is on developing foundational awareness. Dr. Rajesh Savera explained the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, which serve as the base for beginning:
- Awareness of the Body
- Awareness of Feelings
- Awareness of the Mind
- Awareness of Mental Objects
Alongside this, he highlighted the importance of following the Five Panchasheelas—ethical principles that help maintain clarity and purity in thought and action. These ethical pillars ensure the practice is grounded in discipline.
The Five Skandhas and the False Self
One of the most thought-provoking parts of the session was Dr. Rajesh Savera’s explanation of the Five Skandhas (Aggregates):
- Form (Rūpa)
- Sensation (Vedanā)
- Perception (Saññā)
- Mental Formations (Sankhāra)
- Consciousness (Viññāṇa)
These are not who we are, but rather components of what we think of as “self.” Through RedBelt Meditation, practitioners learn to observe these elements without attachment, paving the way to clarity and freedom from ego patterns.
Dhyana vs. Sitting Alone
Dr. Rajesh Savera emphasized a crucial difference: Sitting alone is often passive and relies entirely on personal discipline. Practicing Dhyana in a group generates a shared energy field that amplifies attention and stillness. He explained that meditation is not about shutting the world out, but learning to clearly perceive what’s within and around us. This clarity is the purpose of structured inner training like the Sunya RedBelt program.
Conclusion
The Sunya RedBelt Meditation session with Dr. Rajesh Savera was not just an introductory talk—it was a practical, grounded entry into a well-structured meditation journey. His lucid explanation of mindfulness, the seven-belt system, and the role of awareness left participants with clarity and motivation.
For those looking to begin a disciplined and progressive meditation path, the Sunya RedBelt offers the perfect starting point. Whether you’re new to meditation or seeking to deepen your understanding, this system provides a clear map to navigate your inner world.
