What
does Meditation Music do to you ?
Personally I belief that it is possible for anyone
to live a life of happiness, inner peace, and outward success, no
matter what their present or past circumstances.
There are very real methods anyone can use to achieve these
things—if they are willing to make the necessary changes in
how they see themselves and their relationship to the rest of the
world, and take the necessary actions.
All traditions of Buddhism Meditation flow from one premise: that the
entire universe is made of one all-encompassing energy, intelligent and
aware, existing forever as the source of everything. Because there is
nothing outside of it, say the mystics, because of its completeness,
this energy has nothing to get or need, nothing to fear. Simply because
it is its nature to do so, this one energy continually spins itself out
as the entire, infinite universe. The very nature of this energy, it is
said, is contentment, love, peace, happiness, and perfection.
The totality of this energy, say the mystics, is who you really are;
your seeming separateness, an illusion. Saints and sages have for
centuries attempted to describe to humankind a state of awareness where
this feeling of oneness with everything in the universe is the
predominant experience.
For thousands of years, curious seekers have responded to these
explanations by asking, "If I am this one, infinite energy, the
beginning less and endless totality of everything, if I really am Love
itself, then why do I feel so bad? Why do I have so many problems? Why
don't Why don’t I feel the peace and happiness you say is my
true nature?"
And the mystic invariably would answer, "You do not experience your
true nature because of your mind. Your mind keeps you from the
experience of what truly is."
These explanations state that the one energy of reality, at the moment
of creation, polarized itself into a seeming duality—good and
evil, male and female, up and down, here and there and all other pairs
of seeming opposites. This duality, however, is more apparent than
real. In each pair of opposites, each part is dependent on the other
for its existence, like two sides of the same coin. "Cold" is
meaningless without "hot"; "good" makes no sense without "bad".
According to the mystical philosophies of the East, it is the tension
between these pairs of opposites, in your mind, that actually causes
the universe to manifest.
This tension between opposites is also reflected in the human brain.
The brain, divided into two hemispheres, right and left, has the same
dual structure—made more acute by the fact that in virtually
all people the two hemispheres are unbalanced, a state called brain
lateralization.
Since the brain filters our reality in this split-brain way, we tend to
see things in terms of duality rather than the oneness spoken of by
mystics.
Of course, today we know that this is true—the mind does
indeed act as a filter, coloring our view of reality just as colored
glasses give an illusory tint to what we see. As we grow up, our brain
is programmed that some things cause pain and should be avoided, while
others bring pleasure and should be sought.
Our brain will always filter reality to confirm that its predominant
beliefs and associations are the truth. No wonder we don’t
see the universe of love and harmony described by saints and mystics!
If the brain could somehow learn to operate in a more coherent,
holistic manner, if the two sides of the brain could somehow balance,
interact more, and function, as one, then possibly our experience of
reality would be different.
The more lateralization in the brain (in other words, the more tension
between polar opposites) the more feelings of separation, fear,
anxiety, and isolation. In fact, as we shall see, only a lateralized
brain can continue to entertain the types of beliefs that result in
dysfunctional and addictive behaviors and the painful feelings that
accompany them.
But our brain should not be considered like an organ what produces our
consciousness, we should consider it instead like the product of our
consciousness. The connections between the cells in our brain become
created following the necessities of our consciousness. In this way,
our brain evolves and produces his self and our implicit consciousness.
Therefore, must our mind be seen as a potentiality!
Modern brain research indicates that long-term meditation does in fact
balance the brain, creating a synchrony between the two hemispheres.
They discovered that electrical brain wave patterns of meditator's
changed, in periods of deep meditation, to a single, coherent pattern,
indicating that both sides of the brain — ordinarily out of
phase — were working together in a balanced, synchronous
manner.
This and other research has demonstrated that this balancing, or
synchronization, of the hemispheres of the brain happens in all forms
of meditation. The degree of hemispheric synchronization can be very
precisely determined by measuring the meditator’s brain wave
patterns with an electroencephalograph (EEG) machine.
Any kind of focusing will bring about a degree of brain synchronization
(i.e. meditation). The greater the focus, the greater the
synchronization (and the deeper the meditative state). The mystic,
then, sitting to meditate, balances the brain through some form of
focusing, whether by repeating a prayer or mantra, keeping the
attention on the flow of the breath, staring at a candle flame, or by
using one of many other techniques. Whatever the technique, the effect
on the brain is substantially the same—brain synchronization,
and after much practice, transcendental experience.
So just what is this transcendental awareness? Is it becoming some kind
of a blob of undifferentiated guru that wants to sit and stare at its
navel instead of going to work in the morning, or some kind of robed,
smiling person handing out flowers in the airport? Contrary to common
Western mythology about such things, persons operating continually in
this type of awareness (a kind of 24-hour-a-day state of meditative
alertness sometimes referred to as "the awakened mind") are more
productive, happier, and capable of more intimacy, more creativity, and
more wholeness. Since the filter through which they view reality does
not split everything in to categories based on arbitrary early life
programming, they see life more objectively, without fear and judgment,
without a need to manipulate others, without need for
approval—in short, without the limitations of mental
programming. This is, in fact, a state of peak performance. And, when
the brain is in this highly synchronous and coherent state, it produces
large quantities of pleasure-causing petrochemicals called endorphins,
making the whole experience very pleasurable!
In order to accelerate the personal growth process, can you take
advantage from the results of modern brain research and use the
combined method between meditation and brain wave stimulation with
scientifically developed meditation music, what stimulates your brain
in a more effective and faster way than traditional meditation. By
doing that you'll exclude any upcoming difficulties regarding focusing
your mind and concentration.
Music is harmony; start practicing your meditation with harmoniously
meditation music to get harmony into your life.
