Meditation is the ability to focus completely and
without distraction. It is the act of removing
thoughts when they occur and returning to a chosen
state or awareness.
There are many form of meditation. Only a handful
of precious techniques are mentioned in these pages.
If your meditation is on illumination sit and focus
on this. Move your awareness around and fill very
part of your mind with it. Once this is achieved
dwell in this state long enough for it to remain
with you throughout that day.
This means more than 20 minutes of focus on the task
of removing rising thoughts and maintaining a level
of awareness where there are no areas of darkness in
the mind.
Life and prana can be moved into the darkness to
light it up be simply identifying them and
moving your awareness into those areas.
