- This is a combination of passive and active meditation.
The active part comes first
- Sitting comfortably, close your eyes and realize this inwardly.
- There is Only One ORIGINAL LIFE.
- This ORIGINAL LIFE is One and cannot be two.
- This ORIGINAL LIFE is Omnipotent , Omnipresent and Omniscient.
- This ORIGINAL LIFE is MY LIFE RIGHT NOW
- I AM NOT SURE OF ANYTHING ELSE BUT I KNOW I HAVE LIFE. ORIGINAL LIFE

Thoroughly repeat this till it sears a hole in your memory.

Moving on , the passive part consists in just watching the contents of your mind.
Jesus said 'Take no thought' . . . and that is exactly what we aim for.

With the realization of our Oneness with life , now watch out for your thoughts and realize your power that is naturally inherent.

Here's an example

After deciding to 'TAKE NO THOUGHT' or 'GO INTO THE WILDERNESS' , the Devil comes as ego or THOUGHTS OF FEAR and tries to shake my concentration.
Immediately , i don't try to RESIST THIS EVIL BUT RATHER KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT MY IDENTITY AT THAT PRESENT NOW.
And the truth is - I am FILLED WITH LIFE
- THIS LIFE IS THE ORIGINAL LIFE
- THIS LIFE IS OMNIPOTENT . . . therefore i can only be afraid if the ORIGINAL LIFE is not OMNIPOTENT.
- .... and they shall know the truth , and the truth shall set em free
- This makes it easier to practice BREATH MEDITATION. This is also called pure prayer.
- Pure prayer is TAKING THOUGHT ONLY for this original life.
- 'Worship the lord thy God and him only shall thou serve'
- For every breath you take , just thank the GOD WITHIN YOU AND WITHOUT for giving you his life.
- For all you know you could just stop breathing and there is nothing anybody can do about it.
- This thought gradually leads to the state of no-thought or inner stillness.
- 'He lead me BESIDE THE STILL WATERS'

Remember, there is Only one original life and every man , Christian or Muslim, pagan or Hindu is filled with this life.

Hi
What is the goal of this exercise?

The incessant chattering of your mind. Its a choice really

It seems to me that the chattering mind is the default state.
What is to be gained from a non-chattering mind?
This is a sincere question.

It seems? Lol. Think about yourself as a DAY old baby.
This day old baby has nothing to think about. This day old baby has no name or memories to think about but is alive and conscious. This is the natural state

As for the gains , words are poor examples and would do no justice. Experience is the only teacher

As babies we cannot consciously utilise this natural state to gain At-one-ment and that is why we need to grow up and consciously come back to become born again.

So u can say the ultimate goal of going within is to become one with the entity or consciousness or God that lies within you.
Not the consciousness as a name with a physical body but the consciousness without a body that can be observed after becoming still both mentally and physically

Have you attained this state?

Ranchhoddas:
Have you attained this state?

Who is the 'I' that is achieving? The 'I' that has a body OR the 'I' that is free of limitations?
There is nothing to achieve. Only the limited I needs to achieve
The inner I needs you to just be still , and Know ''''I'''' am . . .

Is there a timeframe for achieving this?

Ranchhoddas:
Is there a timeframe for achieving this?

What is time? There is Only NOW. Whenever this 'achieving' takes place would also be Now.
We are always running from Now. The mind is either coming to you as memory or future. But there is only now. The minute you leave the now , you have time travelled to a 'time that has passed' or a 'time that is yet to be'. The time is Now , now , now . . .

A man in a coma is still breathing. Despite not being consciously aware of his body , someone or something still breathes for him. Who is this person?
When you sleep , you forget your body. Yet you still breathe. That means there is an extra aspect of you that intelligently keeps you alive.

Think of it. You just gave out Carbon dioxide. Yet your nostrils intelligently avoid the Co2 around and takes in oxygen.
Conscious union with this 'natural state' or 'Other side of man' is the goal of going within.

Man know thyself

Here's an illustration from the grand master himself , Jesus of Nazareth.

Blessed are the 'Poor' in spirit' for . . .
Poor means lacking in possessions. To be poor IN SPIRIT therefore means lacking in spiritual possessions.
Now what is the only possession you have as a spirit? Thoughts. . Your ability to create
Therefore Poor in spirit means 'Taking no thought' or 'Silence' or 'Stillness' or 'moving among the STILL WATERS'.

Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God
But being poor is not enough. To actually become one or see 'God' , man has to become pure with his thoughts.
And the only pure thought is the thought of God. But how do you think of something that you cannot see?
The minute you give God a mental concept, you have created a graven image.

*Modified - Intention is the key to becoming pure at heart. Why are you meditating? Is it to be superior to others? Is it because of wealth? Health? The only PURE intention that strengthens meditation is to focus all of your being in wanting to know God as he is , not how you think he is

No man can see God and live because after viewing his awesomeness, man stops perceiving himself as man made of flesh and bones and sees only the divine within

Meditation was the favourite activity of Jesus. This should point out the importance of this natural way of being

Okay. I'll try it soon.
