Experienced meditators combine meditation with sleep, thereby awakening consciousness in the higher worlds.
Proper meditation must be combined with drowsiness.
My preferred method of meditating is to just let everything be as it is. Is there any specific instruction for the type of meditation that you are talking about?
Sometimes I meditate on equanimity. But I stopped doing that since I realized that equanimity is just a natural byproduct of allowing everything to be as it is.
Isn't it true that meditation just starts to happen on its own when we allow everything to be as it is? And when I say "allow everything to be as it is" I'm not talking about indulging my destructive fantasies, I'm just talking about letting things come and go, without clinging. Can't this approach to meditation also awaken consciousness?
