The
Secrets of Meditation?
This article mainly focuses on meditation as a type
of discipline, found in various forms in many cultures, by which the
practitioner attempts to get beyond the reflexive, 'thinking' mind
(sometimes called 'discursive thinking' or 'logic') into a deeper, more
devout, or more relaxed state. The terms 'meditative practice' and
'meditation' are mostly used here in this broad sense.
In Concentration meditation the meditator holds attention on a
particular object while consistently bringing the mind back to
concentrate on the chosen object. For example, in anapanasati, one pays
attention to the movement of one's breath.
In Mindfulness meditation the meditator sits comfortably and silently,
centering attention by focusing awareness on an object or process. The
meditator is usually encouraged to maintain an open focus or
monitoring.
Evidence from neuroimaging
studies suggests that major categories of meditation, defined
by how they direct attention, appear to generate different brainwave
patterns. Some evidence also suggests that using different focus
objects may generate different brainwave
patterns.
Buddhist
Meditation
Core meditation techniques have been preserved in ancient Buddhist
texts and have proliferated and diversified through teacher-student
transmissions. Buddhists pursue meditation as part of the path toward Enlightenment
and Nirvana. Buddhist meditation techniques have become
increasingly popular in the wider world, with many non-Buddhists taking
them up for a variety of reasons.
While there are some similar meditative practices — such as breath
meditation and various recollections (anussati) — that are used across
Buddhist schools, there is also significant diversity. In the Theravāda
tradition alone, there are over fifty methods for developing
mindfulness and forty for developing concentration, while in the Tibetan
tradition there are thousands of visualization meditations.
Christian meditation
Christian
meditation is a form of prayer in which a structured attempt
is made to get in touch with and deliberately reflect upon the
revelations of God. The word meditation comes from the Latin word
meditari which means to concentrate. Christian
meditation is the process of deliberately focusing on
specific thoughts (e.g. a biblical scene involving Jesus and the Virgin
Mary) and reflecting on their meaning in the context of the love of God.
Yogic Meditation
The practices
of Yoga help one to control the mind and senses so the ego
can be transcended and the true self (atman) experienced, leading to
moksha or liberation. According to Pantanjali's Ashtanga
yoga practice includes ethical discipline (Yamas), rules
(Niyamas), physical
postures (Asanas), breath
control (Pranayama), withdrawal from the senses (Pratyahara),
one-pointedness of mind (Dharana), meditation
(Dhyana), and eventually Samadhi,
which is often described as the union of the Self (Atman) with the
omnipresent (Brahman), and is the ultimate goal of all Hindu Yogis.
There are may branches of yoga that are said to help with the
development of meditational skills:
Mantra
yoga where a mantra is recited constantly and can
be either a combination of core letters or words on deity or themes.
Kundalini
Yoga where the practitioner focuses on moving
energy around the body
Tantric
yoga where the practitioner will use the control of
sexual
energy to help with meditation and manifestation
Yantra
yoga where the practitioner will focus on
geometrical designs much like those used to represent the chakra
Zen
yoga has developed from new age tradition and a
combination of eastern philosophies. It advocates that becoming more
aware of your self and realizing your spiritual nature is something
that transcends religion

Taoist
Meditation
Taoism includes a number of meditative and contemplative traditions,
said to have their principles described in the I Ching, Tao Te Ching,
Chuang Tzu and Tao Tsang among other texts. The multitude of schools
relating to Qigong,
Neigong, Internal alchemy, Daoyin and Zhan zhuang is a large, diverse
array of breath-training practices in aid of meditation with much
influence on later Chinese Buddhism and with much influence on
traditional Chinese medicine and the Chinese as well as some Japanese
martial arts. The Chinese martial art T'ai
Chi Ch'uan is named after the well-known focus for Taoist and
Neo-Confucian meditation, the T'ai Chi T'u, and is often referred to as
“meditation in motion”.Often Taoist Internal martial arts, especially Tai
Chi Chuan are thought of as moving meditation. A common
phrase being, "movement in stillness" referring to energetic movement
in passive Qigong
and seated Taoist meditation; with the converse being "stillness in
movement", a state of mental calm and meditation in the tai chi form.
In a form of meditation using visualization, such as Chinese
Qi Gong, the practitioner concentrates on flows of energy
(Qi) in the body, starting in the abdomen and then circulating through
the body, until dispersed.

The Use of Sound
& Light Techniques
Sound and light techniques of
meditation are based on the results of studies with
electroencephalography in long-term meditators. Studies have
demonstrated the presence of a frequency-following response to auditory
and visual stimuli. This EEG activity was termed 'frequency-following
response' because its period (cycles per second) corresponds
to the fundamental frequency of the stimulus. Stated plainly, if the
stimulus is 5 Hz, the resulting measured EEG will show a 5 Hz
frequency-following response using appropriate time-domain averaging
protocols. This is the justification behind such inventions as the
Dreamachine and binaural beats.
Binaural beats and other audio techniques form the basis of the
techniques at Neurovector,
Mind Sync and Binaural Music.
A review of scientific studies identified relaxation, concentration, an
altered state of awareness, a suspension of logical thought and the
maintenance of a self-observing attitude as the behavioral components
of meditation; it is accompanied by a host of biochemical and physical
changes in the body that alter metabolism, heart rate, respiration,
blood pressure and brain activation. Meditation has been used in
clinical settings as a method of stress and pain
reduction. Meditation has also been studied specifically for
its effects on stress.
More recent research suggests that meditation may increase attention
spans. A recent randomized study published in Psychological Science
reported that practicing meditation led to doing better on a task
related to sustained attention.
Why should I meditate?
Suffering
stress and the need to chill out is a familiar state for many of us.
Our world is fast, furious and exciting. It can also be challenging,
trying, demanding and frightening. All of these situations produce
stress, emotional reactions, anxiety, worry and anticipation. Our
bodies react to this in many ways. We produce far more
adrenalin than we need.
- How much
more effective would you be if you could control this daily stress?
- How
would it improve your job prospects?
- How
would it improve your family life?
- How
would it improve your health?
How does it work?
Accurately
calibrated sine wave frequency generators were used to generate
different frequencies in each ear.
The
meditation course works through the alpha level, theta level and delta
level in sequence. Each level has its own unique meditative
characteristics. You will find more information about the
different levels by clicking on the buttons to the right. You can also
purchase each level individually using the same buttons.
The
meditation course contains the full versions of the alpha, theta and
delta inductions. You can purchase either the download or CD versions
below.
