Continuation from yesterday…..(Killing Stress)
In fact, sometimes it takes years to regain complete control and to quiet the mind. In the meantime, expect the tag of war between your higher consciousness (the real you) and your mind to continue. Yet, the rewards for those who are able to overcome this challenge will be substantial. Once your universal consciousness takes complete control of your mind and all of your thoughts, feelings and emotions a transformation occurs. You become your own master where no outside factors can impact you in any fashion at all. You begin to exist in a state where all doors open up for you, a state where all things become a certainty.
If you are to take away anything from this step, clearly understand the following. The only true purpose of meditation is to stop your mind. Get it done, no matter what or how long it takes.
Step 3: Meditate
Close your eyes, stop your thoughts/feelings/emotions and remain aware. Attempt to remain thoughtless for the duration of your meditation session. If thoughts reappear, and they most certainly will, stop them and then shifting back into the state of quiet meditation.
And that’s all there is to it.
Now, be aware of the fact that the practice above is incredibly difficult. As was suggested earlier, it will take you months if not years to regain complete control of your mind. It is instrumental that you remain patient throughout the entire ordeal. It will be challenging and at times frustrating. In fact, it might be one of the most difficult things you will do in your entire lifetime. But do not deviate from the path. You must remain with the practice until a complete victory over your mind is achieved.
Why…..what’s the point of all of this……what will the outcome be?
The rewards of meditation and your eventual victory over your mind are too numerous to describe in this short book. Again, the state being that can be achieved through meditation is the pinnacle of human existence. No higher peak is available. Period. In fact, all the wealth and material vanities of the world are nothing but a pile of dirt when compared to this higher dimension of human consciousness. And we are but to combine the three of the most famous Bible verses to get to the same meaning.
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pears, and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
The “Kingdom of Heaven” that most spiritual and religious texts talk about is not some physical location, but rather, a higher state of consciousness that can only be achieved though meditations and subsequent destruction of your own mind.
