"The particular form of meditation is unimportant. Some people sit, others stand, walk, sing or sway rhythmically; different cultures and traditions have different practices. What is important is that the meditator attains a focused inner state in which the external world is shut out and the mind is directed to pay attention to subtle communications. That such a state is attained and sustained is what matters. How such a state is achieved does not matter."
Author Keith Hill questions discarnate guides about how meditation can be used for spiritual discovery. In their answers the guides consider current approaches, extending them in often startling ways. In particular, where meditators have traditionally focused on silencing the chattering mind, disconnecting from the stresses of everyday life, and merging with the ground of being, the guides discuss how meditation may be used to access non-everyday information and help awareness travel beyond standard human perceptual boundaries. They also provide fresh insights into the relationship between the spiritual, energetic and psychological levels of perception, and the inter-dimensional nature of human awareness.
