संसारमें रहकर साधनारत होना न धर्म विरुद्ध है It is not against religion to practice meditation while living in the world.

संसारमें रहकर साधनारत होना न धर्म विरुद्ध है, न शास्त्र विरुद्ध, मात्र ऐसे जीवकी अपने ध्येयसे भटकनेकी संभावना अधिक होती है | अतः गृहस्थने गुरुगृह, अर्थात आश्रममें जाकर थोड़े समय साधना करना चाहिए, प्रतिदिन
थोड़े समय एकांत रहकर अपनी साधनकी समीक्षा करनी चाहिए और यथा शक्ति धर्मकार्य में योगदान देना चाहिए, यह सब करनेसे आत्मनियंत्रणकी प्रक्रिया को गति मिलती है | जो सांसारिक होते हुए आध्यात्मिक प्रगति कर इस भवसागरको पार करता है ऐसे सदगृहस्थको संतोंने नायक (हीरो) की उपाधि दी है |

Being in the world and doing Sadhana is neither against Dharma (righteous conduct), nor against the scriptures; only it carries a possibility of such a being getting diverted from the ultimate goal. Thus, a householder must go to Guru’s ashram, meaning hermitage and do Sadhana for some time. Also one should live in solitude for sometime of the day, one must perform Sadhana everyday and analyse the their Sadhana, as well as contribute one’s mite as per in some divine work; doing all this, provides momentum to the process of self-control. Despite being worldly, those who cross this Bhavsagar (vicious cycle of life and death) and make spiritual progress, such pure householders have been given the title of Heroes) by saints.
