本研究旨在探討喜馬拉雅瑜伽傳承體系傳人─―斯瓦米韋達的生死觀點及其運用喜馬拉雅瑜伽傳承思想在日常生活之中的實踐之道，本研究針對斯瓦米韋達之著書及公開演講等內容採用傅偉勳先生「創造的詮釋學」進行剖析及歸納，試圖從中整理出斯瓦米韋達對於生命和死亡的思想觀點。 另一方面試圖詮釋斯瓦米韋達藉由瑜伽、經典哲學之智慧精髓等方法實踐、運用日常生活的指引，破除生活中的困頓和人生中的迷惘，戰勝恐懼、慾望，解放心靈。他認為生命不論面臨艱辛、遭受苦難的時刻，也能有應對之策，能夠去面對生命困頓與解決之方法。他對於靜坐禪定的目的是出於求「解脫」，並許下誓言：「要在此生見神」，透過靜坐冥想慢慢累積，最後達到三摩地，擺脫對身體的執著，以突破「太陽門禁」的方式離開人世。筆者希冀藉由研究斯瓦米韋達著書及公開演講中的智慧話語，能帶給現代人在面臨生命議題、人際關係或死亡等艱困處境之時，有另一番啟發。 The purpose of this study is to explore the integral theory of Swami Veda Bharati's who is Spiritual Guide of Himalayan Yoga Meditation Societies International （AHYMSIN）. Swami Vida Bharati explores how to solve life dilemma through his wisdom of practicing yoga philosophy in daily life. He believes that we have the ability to overcome any sufferings and pains, even though under the most difficult and hard time of our life. The purpose of doing meditation is to out of reincarnation and made an oath: “to see God in this life”. Through deeply meditation, he finally reaches Samadhi, get rid of the attachment to the body, and leave the world in a way of Surya-bhedana.
