I've done meditation twice (I'm going to back into it next week monday, start
doing some 5am early morning stuff), I'll admit, it definately calms
you down and makes you feel more at peace and in control with
yourself. It's also great just to sit with yourself and feel
your mind drift into a space in where you can be at
one with your own thoughts without any
distractions from the outside world.
The busy city, the whining family,
the cellphone, the facebook
updates...it can all wait
until you've taken the
time to be at one with
your own conscious and embrace
that state...
I once fell so deep into a meditative state (first try) that
I knew I was still meditating, but I couldn't move...
all I could was just think. I was in such a complete
state of calm and relaxation that my body wouldn't
allow me to go anywhere. I wasn't scared, I just
knew right then and there that I was doing it,
I was becoming one with myself in that state.
In that space inside my mind, I could create
these images of exactly what I wanted and
I could then turn those images into a film
reel and play that film over and over
inside my mind...like how it would
really seem in reality. I could
stop, pause, rewind, add and
take away things...I could even
put myself in the film
in anyway I wanted.
I was was the director
of my mind...
It was
truly incredible. I once
saw myself sitting in
an empty theatre
and I had my film
play live on the projector,
just in what I wanted to see in my reality...
I knew at anytime I could just open my
eyes or just do something inside
my concious that would
allow me to wake
up in way, but I
didn't want to at that time. I just
listened to the meditation and I listended to myself
and what I truly wanted...
The meditation was for 20 minutes...I spent over an hour
in state!
It's truly incredible. Afterwards it felt likeI was wide awake in a dream yet not. It's a wierd
feeling, you must really try it for yourself. Some
things cannot be so clearly explained in the
mind as you think
It goes much deeperthan that. Try it for yourself and see.
Hope that helps brother!
