Beginners in every religion are taught exclusive forms of concentration. This means it excludes everything except the object of concentration. That is, one concentrates on one thing, and “excludes” everything else from one’s attention. In this way, one gathers all of ones powers of concentration to focus on only one thing.
Non-exclusive types of meditation do not exclude anything: instead, one learns to concentrate on everything that is perceptible, simultaneously.
Generally speaking, we advise students to develop concentration using exclusive methods: observe an object, visualize an image, and when you can do that for a full session without losing awareness, then you are ready to try non-exclusive concentration.
The non-exclusive technique is simple, but requires very strong concentration:
“We must learn to wisely meditate, and as each thought, memory, image, idea, concept etc. arises within the mind we must watch it, study it, and extract what is of value of each though, memory, image, etc.
“When the parade of thoughts is exhausted, the mind remains quiet and in a profound silence. Then the essence of the mind escapes and the experience of that which is the truth comes to us.”
“Our system of concentration excludes nothing; it is total, integral, complete. Our system of concentration includes everything and does not exclude anything. Our system of concentration is the way that leads us to the experience of the Truth.” —Samael Aun Weor, Spiritual Power of Sound
This is a non-exclusive form of concentration. This is not thought. If you are thinking, you are not doing it right.
The essence of the technique is this: You sit in meditation, relaxed and concentrated. Then, you do not do anything, or focus on any one thing, you just watch everything you can perceive, all at the same time, without thought, and without excluding anything from your awareness. That is it.
