Quote:MEDITATION
What we think about is what we are meditating about. That's pretty simple. However, it also includes ... We actually meditate all the time and are affected by all of the above and much, much more.
Since our brains constantly run on and on, and since meditation only requires the awareness of the individual at some level, we are effectively in constant meditation whether conscious, subconscious, unconscious, or superconscious.
Picture this: The person driving to work and cursing all the poor drivers on the road, driving to cut off other vehicles, pushing the limits of the conditions and vehicle, damning the traffic, and skirting legal punishment by pushing red lights, changing lanes, rolling stops, etc. Now, they reach work with an interesting meditational foundation, walk into work telling everyone how bad the traffic and people in other autos are, and encouraging others to support their attitude. They follow this with more anger at the boss, employees, fellow workers, outside contractors, inept secretaries, poor mail service, slow internet, etc., etc., etc. What an interesting meditation!
...
Do you know someone who meditates like this? Unfortunately, we all have done this to some degree and it is a difficult meditation to stop. But, stop we must or we can never change to a new awareness.
The meditation just described is typical of a cyclic meditation which we reinforce in a great many ways.
How do we stop? In a too real sense we don't stop. This style of meditation is a type of addiction and as in all known addictions, involves whole body chemistry and production of antibodies, immune suppressants, and many permanent body biochemical changes.
Once you have addicted to some body chemistry, your meditations will support that chemistry. You have no choice. If the person addicted to anger meditates for any length of time (say a few days) on being happy, they will begin to feel ill.
What path should you use? Each must choose for themselves. This writing is here to present you with the option of using Tantric methods, should they suit your circumstances.
To me, and basically what I teach. is that Tantra is a method of awareness, a method of attainment.
Noticing what you meditate about will help you understand your addiction. Begin to pay attention to what thoughts you are having all day. What do you think of while driving? What do you think about at work? ... What do you watch on T.V.?
...
Form this information into a larger picture to help you know what your meditations are. What do you think about as you go to sleep? What are you thinking about when you wake? What are your dreams and are they up, down, past, future, etc.? You are your meditations and/or you will become as your meditations direct and/or your meditations will reflect who you really are, and/or who you are is......etc. Who you are is a whole unit. Your body chemistry is not separate from you. Your arm is part of you. Your meditations are part of you. Your environment is part of you. It is all interconnected and your meditations running constantly are somewhat like a large instrument panel filled with gauges and dials. Pay attention and your meditations will tell you who you are.
Second and third attentions (and sometimes even more than that) are common to everyone. All of us have experienced driving along a well-known route and thinking of many things so deeply we may have difficulty remembering what happened along the drive. We may have been thinking so much on a subject of importance (or not) that we miss our turn-off or suddenly look about and have no idea where we are. We often are capable of watching TV or listening to radio and doing something else while we are also thinking of a vacation and mowing the lawn and fixing the car, and where little Johny is, etc. Without realizing it, we use many attentions at the same time, nearly constantly.
Replace the ones you want to be rid of with new ways of meditating. If it is difficult at first, speak the new ways out loud.
For example, if you find you are impatient and irritated driving to work because of all the idiots on the road (and yes, there are a lot of idiots on the road), talk out loud of your chosen meditation replacement. This is known as a mantra and has been known to be effective from long before people kept records. That may be more difficult to do at work but you may use reminders to help you. Inspirational sayings have been used for this from the time writing was invented.
And, I do know the old Zen story about "thinking about not thinking about" but you must start some place and if you don't do something, nothing will come of nothing
ENVIRONMENT
You can change nearly all of your environment to a greater or lesser degree. It is not too likely you will get off this planet any time soon.
We all do this to some extent. Mostly we just let it happen without much guidance, and society, culture, job, or convenience does most of the environmental job for us. !!!
ACTIVE MEDITATION.
Well okay, what is "inactive" meditation? Actually, most directed meditations are pretty much inactive meditations. The most common meditation used in group sessions basically says, "stop moving, relax, stop thinking, relax." That's not active meditation.
An active meditation is anything you do that increases your activity and combines the physical with the mental for heightened effectiveness. Some examples are, driving to work, going for a walk, working, fighting with someone, talking with someone, having sex, participating in a sport, etc.
One of the first things you can do to bring activity to your meditations is to say them aloud. Churches know how effective this is.
That's what this writing is about in a very great sense. There is a real focus here to help people gain their own direction, godhood, destiny, or whatever. If tantric methods can help, then use them. If you think tantra won't--don't.
Meditation is a process just as with everything else. Not only that, we are up against the problem of definition. I say meditation is the sum total of all your brain and body activity and is happening constantly. You may have another definition. My meditations say that's OK. My meditations also say it's OK for me to see things as I do. All this is just fine as long as we don't begin to force each other to our way against the other's will. If you have a different way or path, great! If you decide I must see things your way or else, not great, and I'll take the "or else." All of which brings up the subject of shared meditations.
Sharing meditations is far more common than most people would at first believe. Yet most everyone will share the meditations of their drive to work, or their meditations about anything which frustrates or irritates them. In fact, they (we) will share our pet peeves at such a level that others will begin to avoid us or at least tire of hearing about them. We less often share our gladness and when we do, it will be disguised as "great weather" or "had a great time last night" and so on. We don't often state how glad we are to be alive, to be functional, to be at work, at home, or any other common good situation. It is interesting how we take being OK for granted and meditate on what is not OK or what might not be OK, or what was not OK or might not be OK if it were not for the possibiity of what could have been except for--------! Wow, we are experts at finding downer meditations.
These meditations of problems, real, unreal, potential, past, future, present, perfect future nominative, or by any other case, and the even more widely varying possibilities of the results of those problems, are not healthy. Sorry, I won't retract that. Meditating on downers all day only adds to illness, both mental and physical. Here is what I teach: As much as possible, meditate with glad, happy, connected thoughts, surround yourself with beauty, use your second attention to image actions of happiness, use rituals to change your body/brain chemistry to a base line of happiness, and avoid or get away from anything that works against those methods of happiness. If you can't get away, often the case in a job situation, wall the problem off to the maximum reasonable extent. You must take charge of your life. If you don't, others will. Right now, much of your life is being controlled by the government, churches, culture, society, peers, and expecially your parental training. As the Catholic church has bragged "give us the child and we'll own the man," how you grew is the way you still are. That can be changed and it is not difficult; start with changing your meditations and the rest may fall into place. If not, try the tantric rituals combined with the meditations. Increase the power of the rituals according to the strength of the difficulty you are trying to overcome.
There is a problem. If you continue to practice the old thoughts and behavior patterns at the same time you try to break out, you may simply increase the strength of the old habits enough to counter the new methods or rituals. If you don't stop smoking, you won't stop smoking no matter how many methods you use.
...
If you simply practice finding more fault and being more angry, or more fearful, you can walk or practice any path you want and your old stuff will win because you have raised the power of your disability to overcome any possible ability. If you're doing this and won't stop, people will soon find out and you will lose jobs, friends, spouses, finances, paths and yourself. If you're doing this, STOP!! Redo your meditations and stamp out the old ways, even the ones you think you'll die without. Find someone you can trust and be guided. Don't use your old methods to destroy your guide or you will have done two things: (1) gotten rid of someone who would have helped you, and (2) destroyed someone who had a good attitude toward the world, and that is all too rare nowadays.
You share this world with everyone else. Your actions, your thoughts, your promise, your life is important to everyone here, now and in the future. When you smile at the world, you help. When you frown, you destroy. When you do good, good grows. When you do ill, illness grows. Choose. You choose anyway. Make a conscious choice. You will not have more effect on the world by knowing what you are doing than you do without knowing. The only difference is, you will then, at least, become aware of what the effects of your actions are and you will be able to make your actions count in the direction you choose, not as others push you into.
