Innumerable forms...there are more created every day. Most should be classified as contemplation or concentration, not meditation. For true meditation does not have a process, it is simply sitting in pure awarenesss. In this way, you could say there is only one form of meditation. ~ Eric Putkonen

Form of yoga in which meditation is used?

The form of yoga that uses meditation is known as Dhyana yoga. There are many forms, it can be called Raja yoga or king of yoga. It can be call the Patanjali yoga which takes you to samadhi. Therefore the names are plenty, but we should not get worried about the name. We should understand what that form of yoga, of meditation is - it is silence. It is being able to switch off, it is being able to become the witness, the observer. That meditation which gives you Dhyana or concentration gives you consciousness, you become conscious that you are the Divine Soul. You are not the body, you observe the mind as it wanders. This is Dhyana yoga or the yoga of silent meditation.

How do you feel while meditating?

In many forms of meditation you are actually aiming to not involve yourself in the experiences of meditation. Meaning you try to just watch rather than engage in what you are feeling.Other meditation techniques are aimed at specifically creating particular psychological or physical sensations, in fact these 'feelings' are one of the ways you are able to judge your stage of development.Any reliable meditation teacher should be able to give you guidance on what form of meditation delivers what kind of 'feeling'.The best general advice I can think of is no matter what arises during your meditation try not to take seriously.

Is Meditation only used for religious purposes?

No. Meditation can be used for a number of religious or secular purposes, though it started as a religious practice. Many religions, including Buddhism (probably the best-known proponent of meditation), rely on the practice as a means of attaining inner peace or deeper knowledge of God. Starting in the 20th century, though, meditation spread beyond religion. In a modern context, many people meditate for their own self-improvement, healing or empowerment, with or without a direct religious connotation. Common meditation techniques include visualization, chant (sometimes of sacred symbols) or meditating on a color or image. Most yoga traditions include some form of meditation.
