QUESTION: I have heard that meditation is widely used today by psychiatrists and psychologists. Is this true?
ANSWER: Yes, it is. Meditation is now accepted as having a highly therapeutic effect upon the mind and is used by many professional mental health workers to help induce relaxation, overcome phobias and bring out self-awareness. The Buddha’s insights into the human mind arc helping people as much today as they did in ancient times.
