The
meditation
What
is meditation? When we speak about the path, about the original-yoga,
we speak about the Meditation. The word yoga meant Freedom, at the
writing time ofthe treaty of the yoga, implied freedom from the
influence of the mind's fluctuations. The word yoga meant union at
about the eighth century AD, that is three hundred years after the
treaty of the yoga’s end writing , because of the interpretation
giving by a wandering mystic or samnyāsin
: Adi Shankara.
To
meditate is to unite yourself. Unite yourself with what, to what? If
you are religious you can tell God's part, that he left inside you.
In fact it is a question of gathering its Conscience scattered in
things, the thoughts, the desires etc.
There
are numerous manners to meditate. For some the meditation is a
reflection of the thought, for others it is something else. The
Meditation serves to reset with this pole of stability which is in
yourself in ordrer to take certain hindsight with the mental
whirlwind.
It
would be true to say that " the
Meditation begins where stops the thought
". It is necessary to recognize however that saying that is to
ignore a phase of the Meditation, Dhàrana. According to the
yoga-sûtra of Patanjali, It is the stage of concentration before
dhyàna and samadhi, the deepest phases.
We
could then say that " The
contemplation begins where stops the thought ".
But it is impossible to put an end to the thought. The thought does
not stop but it is possible to extract, not to listen to it anymore.
It
is necessary to be not disturbed any more by the thoughts, the
sensations if we want to dive into the deep Conscience, then…. how
can it be done? It is a question of putting its attention somewhere
else that in your thoughts. Certain yogi or devotees use outer
supports as mantras, prayers, oraisons, mandalas, lights of candles
etc. The purpose being to let emerge the bliss which is inside you.
The Revelation of the four techniques and the Agya of the path allow
to make it by giving inner supports to the Meditation. It is not
about mantra either postures or even the prànàyàma.
It
is the question of identification, to believe that we are what we
think. The thought is a tool which always has to stay under the
control of the Conscience. You are not your thoughts. There is no
question to despise the intelligence nor the knowledge. But the brain
is not you, it is your embedded computer and the knowledge are the
data entered him. The mental is an operating system.
You
are your Conscience. Obviously those who deny the superiority of the
soul will never understand this notion. Normal: they believe only in
their brain and it can understand only what is in its plan, that of
the phenomena, knowledge and logic.
That is why
the quantum physics is so difficult to understand, even for the
physicists. The most committed in this scientific discipline arrive
all at God. Without God nothing is understandable at the end of the
end of the explanations.
The path is based on the Meditation. It requires no learning other than the Revelation of the four techniques and the regular practice to bear fruits. To receive this Revelation: contact.

"The
sight in conscience sees One in everything, the one of the illusion
sees only the forms" [Bhaktimàrga
