This movement has entered into the Indian traditional circle and many are looking for evidence of it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Dr. Ananda Balayogi Bhavanani, every culture practices its own type of scientific exploration. India is no exception. We have many traditional methods, which he believes deserve recognition; not just the RCTs (randomized controlled trials).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And he continues by saying that methods for gathering proof about reality are called pranama. According to Indian tradition, pramana refers to obtaining, gaining, and experiencing truthful knowledge or wisdom. In Patanjali&#8217;s Yoga Darshan (a text on yoga), he provides us with the threefold path to obtaining Pramana &#8211; Pratyaksha (direct perception), Anummaana (inference), and Aagamaa (accurate testimonial).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Bhavanani\u2019s article also states that in the Yoga tradition, there is great emphasis placed on three key aspects of Sadhana: Pranayama (voluntary regulation of the energy through breath), <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hellomyyoga.com\/blog\/guide-to-pratyahara-yoga\/\">Pratyahara<\/a><\/strong> (sense withdrawal), and Dharana (deep concentration). This is because these are essential ingredients for a clear mind. And when it comes to having a clear mind, Pranayama Sadhana (enhancing one&#8217;s experience of the Pranic energy through the breath) leads us down the right path. Once we have clarity of mind, we are able to transcend sensory input and experience reality from above through our own higher perception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indian culture has upheld high standards of logic by demanding that the reason must always and independently account for the conclusion in all cases, whether it is a positive or negative Pramana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So If you are excited to learn more about Indian findings based on ancient texts please see the link below:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bhavanani.medium.com\/traditional-methods-of-obtaining-proof-in-spiritual-research-1d4f0d1009b0\">https:\/\/bhavanani.medium.com\/traditional-methods-of-obtaining-proof-in-spiritual-research-1d4f0d1009b0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>Join the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/yoga-courses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online yoga courses<\/a> by hellomyyoga<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/health-wellness-courses\"><strong>Health and Wellness Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/emotional-intelligence-courses\"><strong>Emotional Intelligence Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/ayurveda-courses\"><strong>Online Ayurveda Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/online-meditation-courses\"><strong>Online Meditation Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/yoga-for-women\"><strong>Yoga for Women<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/yoga-therapy-courses\"><strong>Yoga Therapy Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/mental-health-courses\"><strong>Mental Health Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/prenatal-yoga-courses\"><strong>Prenatal Yoga Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellomyyoga.com\/yoga-for-senior-citizens\"><strong>Yoga for Senior Citizens<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern science is always striving to demonstrate existence through empirical research.
