Meditation is the practice of quietening the mind.
My conscious mind is my focus.
My sub-conscious mind is continually processing information through my brain.
It is like a video recorder that stores data on a hard drive.
Meditation is a way of turning off or tuning out my sub-conscious brain activity.
Medi means middle.
The alpha waves of meditation are between the delta & theta waves of being asleep and the beta & gamma waves of being awake.
Meditation is the middle state of mind between sleep state & awake state or consciousness & unconsciousness.
This between state of consciousness allows a unique space of awareness, which is natural but not normal.
In this state of awareness my inner guidance & my inner tutor is accessible.
I connect to my intuitive super-conscious inner guidance through the alpha waves of meditation.
There is a greater purpose to meditation than restfulness, peace & serenity.
This is just the gateway to my life-path.
