The World of True Spiritual Acceptance pt.11

Written by Mathew Naismith

Meditation-Mindless Thought: I don’t mediate a lot but when I do there is no form of myself or anything else it just is, I’m just floating around but at the same time I am aware of everything. Most people who mediate see different environments & most often it’s in a serene peaceful surroundings but where does this visionary environment come from?  In actual fact you shouldn’t really see anything if you are completely switched off from the mind & the life you are presently living.

While in a meditative state we feel a lot but for us to acknowledge these feeling we turn them into something we can relate too so in actual fact we are still in thought.  Try to be accepting that you don’t have to visualise anything within your meditative state just be accepting of the feeling for what they are pure energy. Once one does this it usually blows your mind away but of course not literally. I will by will visualise what I want to visualise while in a meditative state but I also know it doesn’t have to have form for me to acknowledge its existence in actuals fact it’s a lot better if I didn’t try to put anything into form because it feels a lot more natural in a formless form than it does in a some visual form.

Our minds need to be reprogramed to accept this formless environment because our minds are conditioned through life to only accept what our five senses can detect which is form, instead of looking at everything as form look at it as pure energy.

Our desires give us form & as explained in previous posts desires can be quite conflictive so it seems strange to say while in a meditative state we can be conflictive but we are as we desire to visualise what we experience in meditation. This kind of conflict isn’t anything like hating or desiring lustfully for our own pleasure in some way but this conflict can stop someone experiencing the full effect one can obtain from meditation.  This comes back to the mind & our present life again coming through our desires as visions, we need to reprogram our minds to just accept these feeling for what they are not what we desire them to be.  I know a lot of spiritually aware people are going to say the mind has nothing to do with meditation but it does because if the mind was completely switched off you wouldn’t visualise anything it would just be without question. Yes I know it’s wonderful & beautiful to visualise in meditation which helps us to acknowledge what we are experiencing but the less we visualise the more connected & the more accepting we become & the more powerful the feeling of serene oneness  one experience’s.


sereneloveSerene, harmony & Love: This goes on from what I have already discussed here in this post as it’s what can be achieved when one completely switches off from our daily lives & our mind through meditation & other techniques however these feelings aren’t what it seems as I will explain

For an example of what I mean I will use what most of us do to relax in pour daily lives, sitting down for a cup of coffee or tea. What do we feel after a stressful time sitting down to a cuppa? It feels relaxing & exhilarating at the same time which is quite different to our stressful life style & the reason it feels so good is it’s a different feeling to stressing out which enhances the effect that the cuppa is having on us. When we are in this state while drinking our cuppa we don’t want to go back to the stress most of the time because it’s exhilarating to our senses for the main reason it feels good, anything that makes us feel good we usually want more of.

We are in this chaotic life with a lot of hate going on in the world but we want a break from this chaotic life style & love seems like a good way to do this & when we find this love the effects are overwhelming for the main reason we have an opposite reaction to chaos & hate, these effects enhance the effect of love many times over basically to the same apposing degree of chaos & hate. When we go into a meditative state any adversities that are going on in our lives enhance the effects from meditation just like with the cuppa which of course isn’t a bad thing but it’s still being enhanced by our living conditions at the time.

We feel serene, harmonious & love to such an extent it can be quite overwhelming only because of our present living conditions, yes there is sereneness & harmony & yes one can feel that love is everything but it’s only driven by our present living conditions. In actual fact the state of being fully at one is natural & taken as it just is because there is no chaos or hate within this state to enhance positive feelings. I’m not saying here that feeling overwhelmingly loving isn’t right because if you didn’t at first feel this you’re doing something wrong but what I am saying in this spirit state there are no overwhelming emotions it just is & there is nothing that comes anywhere near to the feeling of just accepting it for what it truly is.

To get to this stage one has to be accepting of everything around you in & out of meditation as this helps with relating everything into one & once this is done conflicts & desires fade away which help in the process of accepting that everything is just a vibrative energy source which really has no form except through our mode of thoughts. In other words if we see hate as apposing love that is our mode of thought which dictates our living standards but if one was to see no apposing modes of thought but pure vibrative energy our visions & outlook upon the world & ourselves become somewhat different, yes it will feel serene, harmonious & loving but that is only the start of it as there is much more to us than our modes of thought.
