Buddhist Meditation

The purpose of this website is to share what I know about meditation. I am not here to pass negative comments about Buddhist Meditation or any other religious meditation organisation. I fully respect your right to do what you want, with your life.

However, if I am to share with you what I know, I have a responsibility, first to myself, and secondly to you, to tell the whole truth, as I have discovered it to be.

If I upset any Buddhist Meditation devotee, in the process of sharing with you, what I know about meditation, then I make no apologies.

You see, Buddhist Meditation devotees claim to be on a journey of self-discovery, a journey of to discover their real nature, a journey to Enlightenment.

According to Google, their are 376 million people following the teachings of Buddha. I have been meditating, and researching meditation related subjects for over 20 years. So guess how many Enlightened Buddhists I have managed to speak to?
None.
Why?
Because their are none.
Every Buddhist I have ever spoken to tells me that they are not yet Enlightened, but they will be one day, when they have completed the cycle of birth and death. (I'll come back to reincarnation in a moment.)

So, let me get this right.
There are nearly 400 million people doing something.
Not one of them has completed what they set out to do.
There is no proof, at all, that what they are trying to do is even possible.
Yet they continue to do it.
Not only that, the reason they give, for the fact that none of them have done it yet, is the idea of Reincarnation.
That is, you will learn what lessons you need to learn in this life, then you die.
Something will then be reborn until it has learned all its lessons.
When it has learned all your lessons, their will be no more need for it to be reborn, it will be free, it will be Enlightened.

Buddhist Meditation followers may wish to ask themselves the following questions;
1) How come not one single Buddhist is Enlightened?
2) What proof do you have that you even have any permanent or eternal aspect to yourself?
3) How can learning anything at all, be anything to do with freedom?
4) Every single statue of the Buddha, has the representation of a thousand petalled lotus on his head. This we are told is a representation of the crown chakra. I have spoken to many Buddhists, and guess how many can actually even see this chakra? None. They have no idea if it exists or not. So not a single one of them can see the chakra, never mind meditate upon it. Yet I and many others, are able to not only see this chakra, but to travel through it on an inner journey. Just like the Buddha intended.
7) The idea of Reincarnation says that 'you', or some part of 'you' will be born again.
So, if you are a Buddhist, ask yourself this question.

Precisely, which part of 'you' will be born again?

Every single thing that you know about your identity you are getting from your present environment, including your beliefs in Buddhism.
'Your body' obviously belongs to this life, so you are not taking that with you.
(Even the words 'your body' is a bit far fetched. After all, you had no say in its construction, you have no idea how it came into being, and you have no idea when it will die). It is merely a vehicle for your consciousness.
And your consciousness is a set of limits, that is constructed by your present environment.

Your relationship with 'your thoughts' is not what you think.
You are only aware of 'your thoughts' after you have had them.
Your thoughts are a reactive stream of chatter. 'You' have no say over them. They are not 'yours' at all.
Don't believe me?
OK, so what are you going to think about in 10 seconds time?
You have no idea, have you? Because you have not witnessed them yet.
So, how could an automatic stream of chatter have anything to learn?
How could an automatic stream of chatter be reborn?
Thoughts are an ongoing reactive phenomena, so they are obviously not going to go with you.

Your emotions are automatic responses to this environment that you find yourself living in, so presumably, this too is not the aspect of you that is to be reborn? Philosophically, and logically, none of it makes sense, so this is where belief comes in. In the absencce of any proof at all, the Buddhist Meditator joins the throngs of every other religion, and starts to fill in the gaps, they start to make up stories.

I have to say, that compared to most other religions, when it comes to making up stories and dogma, Buddhism, and Buddhist Meditation, are not the worst. At least they approve of meditation. Which is more than almost every other religion does.

If you are a Buddhist, and you meditate, I have this to say to you. You can discover for yourself, within yourself, in this lifetime, the real nature of who and what you really are. In the process of this self discovery, which only begins when your brow chakra is opened, you will be able to meditate on your own thousand petalled lotus chakra.
And that is just the beginning.
As you meditate more on the inner light and sound, you will discover for yourself the reality of reincarnation, karma, dharma and whatever else it is that you believe in.

If any of these words have upset you, thjat was not my intention. You see, I am inviting you to prove me wrong. I am inviting you to let go of the Buddhist meditation label, and simply follow my advice, follow the techniques, then find out for yourself.

If you can disprove anything at all that I am saying, I will take this website down.
