meaning " one should meditate " or " one ought to meditate. "   Usually when a verb

ends in -et or -ed that's whats indicated.  I saw this form also in the Rama

Raksa Stotram hymn for protection meditation also.

meditation. How is it constructed, is is from the verb 'dhyai'? I know it is

only a detail, but sometimes understanding details helps a lot in overcoming

other hurdles. Any help would be greatly appreciated,
