Insights from the June 7 Session with Dr. Rajesh Savera
On June 7, 2025, a profound milestone unfolded in the Sunya Dhyana System—an online session on the Red Belt Meditation program, led by the insightful Dr. Rajesh Savera. This session wasn’t just a meditation practice—it was a return to the roots, a rediscovery of foundational inner discipline, and a reminder that the beginning of the journey often holds the deepest wisdom.
Panchsheel Principles: The Ethical Groundwork
Dr. Savera began by revisiting the Five Panchsheel Principles, grounding the session in ethical awareness:
- I shall not do any harm.
- I shall not take what does not belong to me.
- I shall not disrupt the harmony of society and family.
- I shall not make any false claim.
- I shall not intoxicate myself.
These principles are more than moral guidelines—they are practical commitments that purify the seeker’s inner field, creating a stable space for meditation and transformation.The Red Belt: Root of the Sevenfold Journey
In the Dhyana system, seven belts mark the journey of meditative evolution. The Red Belt is the first and most critical. Dr. Savera emphasized that this stage is not about mastering technique—it’s about mastering the self.
Like the roots of a tree, the Red Belt provides the stability needed for higher growth. It is the commitment to show up, practice sincerely, and begin the confrontation with one’s own mind, habits, and unconscious patterns.
Time and Space: Understanding the Two Possibilities
A central insight from this session was the exploration of Time-Space dynamics. Life, according to Dr. Savera, is never random. Every action either moves us forward (progressive) or backward (regressive)—but never without meaning.
By cultivating awareness through the Red Belt, practitioners begin to see patterns, notice causality, and recognize how their inner world shapes their outer reality.
Reverse Counting: A Subtle Gateway to Stillness
The session’s main practice was reverse counting—an ancient meditative technique with deceptively simple instructions. Participants counted backwards from a set number, focusing entirely on each number and breath.
But this was no ordinary counting. As Dr. Savera explained, it was a ritual of return—drawing the wandering mind away from chaos and back into the stillness of now.
From Observation to Realization
More than technique, the Red Belt teaches realization. It’s not just about watching thoughts float by—it’s about understanding that life flows through us, not to us.
With consistent practice, the seeker stops reacting and starts creating life from awareness. The Red Belt becomes a mirror—reflecting not the world, but the state of our own consciousness.
Hand-Swinging: Movement Toward Stillness
As the session neared its end, Dr. Savera introduced hand-swinging exercises—gentle, rhythmic movements that serve a deep purpose:
- 🌀 Releasing tension and stagnation
- 🌬️ Stimulating breath and energy flow
- 🧘♂️ Creating coherence between body and mind
These swings are a bridge—from the external world to the inner temple of Sunya. They prepare the body to sit in silence, harmonizing the physical with the subtle.
Conclusion: The First Commitment to the Self
The Red Belt Meditation Program is not just a level—it is a lifestyle foundation. As Dr. Rajesh Savera beautifully articulated, the Red Belt is where we return to simplicity. It is where discipline, awareness, and grace begin to take root.
Through ethical clarity, body-mind synchronization, and deep internal focus, practitioners set the stage for advanced stages of Dhyana. But no matter how far one progresses, the Red Belt always remains relevant—a grounding force and a compass for the inner journey.
