Dear Group,
I know this topic is somewhat off of the AYP theme,
but really it just shows how the 'flight of humanity'
has always had undertones of working towards
enlightenment. And seeing how we are in the mostly
externally focused Religious dominated culture here in
the west, I just wanted to offer this piece of the pie
on ancient hebrew as a meditation for
Self-realization.
They would read Genesis with each letter being their
mantra, visualizing it within their mind's eye as the
visualization...and so on.
FYI: http://www.meru.org/
About a decade ago I discovered the Meru Foundation and the work of Stan Tenen. The link to his website is given in the above quote.
When I experienced kundalini awakening and a shift in my identity and experience of life in the years of 2005 and 2006, the awareness of Meru's work helped me stay sane. What I took from Stan Tenen's research was that a torus (donut shape) can be considered a geometric metaphor for the structure which allows consciousness to experience life in a stable way.
Inner patterns match outer patterns, and experience and identity are generated. It is not personal, and it is a universal phenomenon that must underlie any conscious identity.
http://meru.org/intro.html
Why it helped keep me stay sane was that as I was awakening, outer events seemed to match things I was experiencing inside (synchronicity). I would think something, or feel something, and world events or mundane details would match them. If I didn't have awareness of the metaphor for consciousness that Stan Tenen talked about, I would not have been able to process that experience in a balanced way.
Because I already thought of my identity as always being generated by inner and outer events matching, I could integrate it when it was in my face in an extraordinary way.
Other writings that helped in my shift were by Arthur Young. He wrote The Reflexive Universe and The Geometry of Meaning. Reading his work helped me shift from seeing myself only as an individual operating in a world that is separate from me, to that of the observer, from where all that I experience is generated and reflected back to my experience from my own consciousness. I think of it like being in a container of infinite mirrors (only better  ).
