Scientific Explanation of Meditation

Scientific Explanation of Meditation
Phoenix Journal#34

Meditation is the MOST IMPORTANT of all the functions of human life which advance human progress. So little is known of it even by the greatest of the world’s geniuses who constantly practice it in a “knowing” state but cannot explain it–that it now seems necessary to define and explain that divine function. With sufficient explanation, everyone can KNOWINGLY practice meditation and thus knowingly command his achievements to be masterly. The concept is universal and works toward both goodness and evil so the use thereof rests solely in the individual personality utilizing the information. The joy of this, however, is that the evil beings are so busy discounting the work brought herein that they are not likely to fully utilize the techniques–for the books themselves give them GROSS INDIGESTION AND A HOTFOOT.

YOU CAN LEARN TO COMMAND ACHIEVEMENTS, COMMAND THE BODY INTO PERFECTION, OR YOUR LIFE TO BE FULL TO OVERFLOWING–FOR THROUGH MEDITATION EVERY MAN CAN BECOME WHATEVER HE WISHES TO BECOME.

But, of course, I speak of TRUE meditation and not the games of gurus and “new-age groupies” who do not fully understand a thing they are practicing. Many, however, do understand and are simply awaiting the spreading of this knowledge so they can fully function according to that which they were shown in other locations and by other messengers– it will all flow into understanding as you become more unified.

Meditation is communing with GOD for the purpose of working knowingly with GOD. This is the definition with which we will exclusively work herein. If you do not practice in perfection, you will most likely commune with the evil resources and never make it to communion with the GOD OF LIGHT! The physical representatives of your “senses” of the physical manifestation will ALWAYS show up first and lie, lie and lie to you–furthermore, it is up to you to cause and demand they remove themselves for they are permitted to remain and deceive until YOU DEMAND THEY DEPART AND YOU ASK IN THE LIGHT AND ONLY THE LIGHT OF GOD BROTHERHOOD. Meditation means to think inwardly toward the Mind-Soul rather than outwardly through the senses.

You recall that “Christ” told Man to seek the “kingdom of heaven” WITHIN HIMSELF, NOT OUTSIDE OF HIMSELF. By that He meant that God dwelt within man, and that God-awareness will come to any man who communes with God through inner thinking.

There are but two kinds of thinkers in the world–those who think outwardly through the brain and those who think inwardly toward the Soul. Outward thinking develops the physical qualities and desires of men, while inward thinking unfolds the spiritual qualities which await unfoldment for long ages of man’s slow journey to the Light of his own divinity.

You all know that is the way you both work and, because of it, you have been able to do ten times the amount of work you otherwise would have done, and all of it in a masterly manner. When we KNOW that God’s Mind and ours are one, and we are consciously aware of His presence every working moment, our work could not be other than masterly.

To work knowingly with God constantly, never ceasing, is to be inspired constantly with the ecstasy of His nature, as I just stated. God is your teacher in actuality and you need no other. He is always with you, as Soul, and lifts us all to great heights.

If you are ever to find God and be WITH GOD–YOU MUST COME INTO COMMUNION WITH GOD–AND BYPASS THE  INPUT OF MAN. Since your time as man is short indeed and your time with God is long indeed–infinite, would it not be worthy to learn to talk with God and get His instructions for passage and cease and desist listening to the misguided and misguiding ones from the pulpits and thrones of “authority” and “expert blatherings”?

Obviously the first step to communication with God is to somehow “forget” your body and stop thinking about anything. In other words, move into zero stillness. You need to turn off your senses and become a vacuum insofar as your senses are concerned. Next, you desire mentally to reach the Light. If you could express this desire in words–stop and let that expression have a meaning, but without words. Let it become a realization.

You will, especially at first, find it hard to stop thinking. The harder you try to stop thinking, the more actively you will think! Therefore, just relax and “allow” the thoughts to drift on through–DO NOT HANG ONTO THEM–WE ARE EFFORTING TO CLEAR THE MIND, NOT SOLVE PROBLEMS OR FOCUS ON PROBLEMS.

Get comfortable and let go–relaxing as much as possible–make this your time. Allow your mind to give “orders” as to that which you desire, i.e., I want to relax, then become alert enough to read with clarity and understanding. Take a nice deep breath and hold it (to a count of about six) and slowly exhale while repeating to yourself–”I am still”. Do this about three times and then just rest a moment while instructing your inner mind to remain relaxed, remain receptive and that with each easy breath you take you are becoming more and more receptive and relaxed.

First you will feel nothing more than a bit of inner relaxation along with the body relaxation. Desire to contact the thought of God and remember–HE is on top of everything and therefore is perpetual universal joy–you must desire to reach that same frequency of pattern and you cannot do it while you dwell on the new tax affixed to “munchies” in California. Release the pounding anger over toxic wastes for a minute and put aside atomic bombs and starving children. You cannot change those things until you can approach them from Creator point of view and that can only be done by viewing from that standpoint.

You will note that during this period of relaxation that you find some peace and stillness then the state of inner joyousness will gradually become an immediate response and the more you practice in segments the more permanent characteristic of your nature will this inner peace become. What you are efforting to attain is the acceptance of the negative impacts without bringing on reactions of fear, anger, discouragement, inferiority, envy or jealousy. Just see things for that which they are in objective manner–for you must function with reason and controlled intent–not in reactions based on fear, etc. God is total passion and energy–He is NOT in fear, anger, depression, etc.

Even if for only this brief respite, your ailments and afflictions will move away from you for they cease to be the “focus” of your attention. If things ARE and you cannot change of them– you must release them for that which they are and deal as if everything and everyone in the world had identical afflictions–this makes you one of the crowd rather than alone in perception–for actually, if a brother is afflicted you may not realize it–but you too have the affliction.

As you begin to focus on God within– the physical inconveniences or perceived unfairness becomes unfocused and you will find that a crippling circumstance is only a bit of a handicap, i.e., if you cannot walk–then God always has need of hands and brains! God accepts NO EXCUSES! AS YOU MOVE MORE DEEPLY IN BALANCE WITH GOD AND THE MENTAL ASPECT OF WHAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT–THE OTHER THINGS OF FLESH DESIRES DO BECOME LESSENED IN IMPACT. YOU WILL ACTUALLY FIND, IF YOU GIVE IT ACTUALIZATION, THAT IT IS ONLY THE MIND CONNECTION TO SOURCE WHICH HAS MEANING AND THE THINGS OF THE BODY TAKE A LONG BACK-SEAT. YOU MUST ACCEPT SELF AS IS–EXACTLY AS IS, WITHOUT “IFS” FOR YOU ARE WHAT IS!

The point herein, however, is get into that state of relaxation which allows this peace. The utter relaxation from all mental and physical strains which comes from simply stopping the madness in your mind and stopping your active focused thinking and replacing it with desire for just one thing– inner joyousness– which will immediately begin the cure of any bodily ailment of mental distress.

After you get pretty good at this procedure you can begin to add some problem solving into the storyline. At on set just hold in your mind that you desire to “talk with God about things”. In other words, give form to your desire–for that is real prayer. Furthermore, if you ask in behalf of another, placing self at the end of the request, except as how you can better serve–you will note instant response and disattachment from ego self-centered “me”. Just reading these words will not do it–you are going to need to practice but it most certainly DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU GIVE ALL YOUR TIME TO IT.

We will get to some very substantial physical conscious methods of dealing with problems–through confronting them. You hold the problem and therefore, you hold the answer, all you need do is locate it and in objectively looking and listing all aspects of the thing you stop the “worrying” at it and get on with solutions. To worry is to prevent solution.

Let us put it more simply by saying that MEDITATION IS A DESIRE TO BE ALONE WITH  GOD TO TALK WITH HIM. MEDITATION IS REALLY A CONFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR SOUL AND THE UNIVERSAL SOUL. To be One with God means to desire His knowledge and power. God’s Mind is your Mind; hence you have all knowledge and power that God has to the extent of your awareness of God in you and the measure of your comprehension of your unity with Him. If God’s knowledge is asleep in you, it must be awakened in order that you may be aware of it. When you are aware of it, you can use it in the measure of your ability to comprehend it. The entirety of Universal Law works with you at your command.

You are actually afraid that you are going to get all relaxed and give away your perceived shortcomings –GOD ALREADY KNOWS THEM SO PERHAPS IT IS TIME YOU FACE THEM! The facts are, however, that what you fear will not happen if you release the fear–it is the fear of a given thing which draws it directly unto you. The point herein is to communicate with God–not wash dirty laundry.

To the extent of your awareness and understanding, and to that extent only, you may use universal power to think your knowing into material forms. Your KNOWING is your Mind-Self. Your Mind Self is you, the eternal Being. Your Self is not your body, nor is your knowing in your brain, but your knowing controls your body and your brain as their absolute master. Do not confuse your Mind and brain as being the same. Your Mind thinks through your brain and with it, as a lever works upon its fulcrum.

Your brain is but the instrument for fulfilling the commands extended to it by Consciousness, which Mind is. Your brain records memories, experiences and information electrically, just as phonographs likewise do, but it is the will of your Mind which orders your body to obey through electric messages from your brain, just as it likewise orders your automobile to obey. The nerves of your body are the “wires” of the electric machine which your body is. The brain is but a nerve recorder and distributor. The measure of your cosmic knowing is the measure of your God-awareness. It is the measure of your ability to dwell in the Light of all-knowing and to command the thought universe of Creation with God. You are then a co-Creator with God.

You can be master of your body in the measure of your awareness of God’s power in you. You must remain in balance instead of continually unbalancing your thoughts and body actions in diverse ways from morn until night and from night until morn. Tensions and strains, fears and worrying, and various emotions destroy your body by the accumulation of toxins. You will continually pay the price of your wrong actions until you ultimately learn that whatever you know, you think– and what you think, you become.
