Abstract : A lot of thought should go into how to revitalize agriculture, because rural demand is critical for reviving the manufacturing sector. Agriculture is also significant because it employs 52% of the population and accounts for 17% of GDP. Over the last 17 years, approximately 14 million farmers have committed suicide. Although per capita land availability has decreased, agriculture's share of employment has decreased more slowly. It means that farmer stress is increase day by day. Dynamic meditation is a popular form of active meditation that was introduced in 1970 by an Indian mystic named osho. The impact of osho dynamic meditation on cortisol levels in the serum (cortisol is a stress marker) & therefore to observe whether it has any anti-stress effect. And calculate beta wave (stress wave) calculated by using EEG and observed reduction in waves or not. After study the hole article we can conclude 1. To study the effect of dynamic meditation on mental health. 2. To Study the effect of dynamic meditation on stress by testing serum cortisol. 3. To study the stress level in farmer before dynamic meditation and after dynamic meditation. Using EEG machine and to achieve better results. 4. To promote farmers and other people to do meditation for positive energy and stress-free life.

Keywords : Dynamic Meditation, Cortisol, EEG, Stress.
