Five programmes presented by Peter Russell 3: 100,000 Prostrations
' You start by standing up with your hands together in a praying position. Then, repeating a mantra to yourself and at the same time maintaining a visual image of a Buddhist deity, you first kneel, then lie down flat on your front, then kneel and stand up again. That is one prostration. The meditation is to do 100,000 of them.'
Today, PETER RUSSELL asks whether Buddhist meditation techniques have anything to offer the average Westerner.
