Techniques to Enter Deep Meditation
"There really is very little you need to know about meditation in order to meditate deeply. The simplest of meditation techniques can take you into very high states of bliss. Whether it be simply watching your breath move in and out of your body, silently repeating the name of a Saint, Guru or God with every breath, or focusing on your sense of existing beyond thought. It is not the technique which is so important but rather your focus with that technique. Through one pointed focus on the meditation technique, you quickly move beyond your constant mental chatter into the clarity of awareness itself. If you focus on an object long enough without allowing any distraction, subject and object become one. You come to the essence of attention which is awareness. While focus is directing your attention towards an object, awareness is resting as attention itself. So techniques are easy ways to bypass the mind to awareness itself. If I tell you to be aware, you could spend the next thousand years trying to figure out what that means. If I tell you to sit down, close your eyes and watch your breath, you could be blissful within minutes. Blessings, Kip" Kip" Please Note: My main teaching is for you to immerse yourself in Kundalini Shakti - the energy one naturally radiates in the highest states of enlightenment. I have found a way to turn Kundalini Shakti into sound So simply by listening to meditation music you effortlessly awaken to your natural state of unconditional peace, bliss and freedom.
Please visit: http://www.bliss-music.com/meditation_music.htm and listen to the music samples from the Infinite Sky Enlightened Meditation CDs. If you are serious about meditation then these CDs are a must.

Chapter 2
Beyond the Thinking Mind
The Truth is far more all-encompassing than the mind could ever comprehend. No thought can encapsulate the Truth. At best, it can point to it. For example, it can say: "All things are intrinsically one." That is a pointer, not an explanation. Understanding these words means feeling deep within you the truth to which they point. |

Reflections of the One Life: Daily Pointers to Enlightenment by Scott Kiloby by BookSurge Publishing Paperback ~ release Date: 2009-08-10

January 8th The inseparability of awareness and thought The last few reflections have been pointing directly to non-conceptual awareness. In confirming awareness, it is tempting to deny or suppress thought or to treat concepts as undesirable. Just notice the tendency to deny or suppress thought. That is the dream (mental) self doing what it does best - controlling. The mind is seeking a state that is free of the mind. Can you see the futility of that? Confirming awareness simply means recognizing - even repeatedly - the space in which concepts arise and fall. This awareness has its own quieting mechanism. Timeless, non-conceptual awareness is already free of thought and time. It is the vast, inward space in which time and thought arise. The space is naturally quiet and still. It is the emptiness from which everything - every movement of thought - comes. That is the amazing thing. It is the space from which every concept arises, which means the concept is none other than the space from which it comes. In this seeing, thought is seen to be empty, just as the space that gives birth to it. Thought no longer has the power to cause suffering and seeking, yet it remains there to serve its practical functioning. Thought isallowed to flow freely and naturally fromits source but there is no longer identification with it. This dance between the source and its manifestation is one dance - One Life appearing as many, non-dual awareness appearing as dualistic thought.

Changeless Presence
(Continuation...)
There is evidence that sentience disappears on death, but not that Consciousness disappears.
After a period of deep sleep, the Consciousness that was present there takes the shape of thinking and imagining and, as a result, the dream state reappears.
And in turn, after a period of dreaming, Consciousness takes the shape of sensing and perceiving and, as a result, the body and the world are recreated - that is, the waking state reappears.

Chapter 92
Go Beyond the l-am-the-body Idea
(Continuation...)
Q: I have read recently a book by a Yogi on his experiences in meditation. It is full of visions and sounds, colors and melodies; quite a display and a most gorgeous entertainment! In the end they all faded out and only the feeling of utter fearlessness remained. No wonder -- a man who passed through all these experiences unscathed need not be afraid of anything! Yet I was wondering of what use is such book to me?
M: Of no use, probably, since it does not attract you. Others may be impressed. People differ. But all are faced with the fact of their own existence. 'I am' is the ultimate fact; 'Who am l?' is the ultimate question to which everybody must find an answer.
Q: The same answer?
M: The same in essence, varied in expression.

From Nisargadatta (1/4/12): "Use every incident of the day to remind you that without you as the witness there would be neither animal nor God." ++++++
From Michael Brown (1/2/12): "Our overall energy levels are a direct reflection of the condition of our emotional body."
Jordan: This is interesting and good to know.
