To stop thought, you have to go above it. We are collecting energy. When it is freed, it is like a flood and the water will rise and we are in altered states of attention.
Any of the exercises that you start out with will get the kundalini moving. You don’t have to stay with them for the entire period of meditation.
The next step in meditation is not just to focus, but to stop thought completely without having to focus; you gain a tremendous amount of personal power.
When your mind is tranquil and at peace with the universe, when it has become void of all thought – you become meditation.
Consciously join with and become part of the power that is in everything around you.
You’re going to go to stillness. When that happens, the world collapses. There is no time, no space, no viewer, no viewing, no object in view.
Step beyond your role as a perceiver, merge everything into the flux.
Learn to let go. You do it a little at a time.
Granted you want to go beyond ideas and beyond thought, but that takes years of practice. If you must think, think good thoughts, happy thoughts, and constructive thoughts.
You can just sit and space out. A lot of people do that and think they are doing a wonderful meditation.
Meditation is not this kind of spacey stuff that makes it difficult to orient your life. If that’s your experience of meditation, you’re not meditating. You’re tapping into the lower astral planes, which is not a healthy place for human beings to tap.
There is a large difference between spacing out in the lower occult astral planes, weird, junky, fuzzy energy, and meditation. Meditation is sharp, clear, precise, perfect, luminous, shiny, happy, etheric, cosmic, and dissolute.
There are planes that are not light. There are planes that are shadowy. But that is not our interest in meditation. We want brightness, ecstasy, brilliance beyond comprehension.
You can’t just sit in emptiness. Even the enlightened don’t sit in emptiness. We call it emptiness – but we move our mind into a world of light.
Meditation is a very powerful time and you are very psychic. It is most important to not allow your attention, your mind, to wander.
The path is focus. The power of focus is absolutely essential. To stop all thoughts, you have to have tremendous power of focus.
When you meditate make sure you stay awake. If you are falling asleep get up and splash some water on yourself or sleep until you are refreshed.
At the beginning of a meditation session your thoughts will be relatively earthbound. You will think about yourself, your world, problems, difficulties and anxieties.
As the meditation evolves, you attention passes into higher realms of consciousness.
You will notice the phenomena of meditation. You may see dazzling lights, feel energy coursing through different parts of your body, feel as if you are floating, hear sounds, or smell fragrances.
