Enhancing Meditation with Shakti
Shakti can be used to enhance meditation,
yoga and other spiritual practices. This includes other mind machines, like binaural beat technology, light and
sound devices and others.
Shakti can enhance meditation when it's done after a Shakti session. The effect does not appear until an hour to
three hours after a Shakti session ends.
However, you should not meditate during your Shakti sessions. Meditation during
Shakti sessions seems to be ineffective. In fact, some people have reported that their meditation during sessions
was a struggle, and that they weren't able to 'get into it' as they usually could.
What seems to be happening is that a Shakti session activates your brain in one pattern, while meditation or other
mind machines activates your brain in other patterns. Meditation during a Shakti session gives your brain conflicting
instructions, so that neither the session nor Shakti have their intended effect.
When Shakti sessions are done first, and the meditation (or other technique) is done later on, the extra activity
in the brain can be directed into the 'task' meditation offers. The result is that meditation can run much deeper
than usual. The same is true for other mind development techniques.
The rule for maximum effectiveness in combining Shakti with other techniques is "Shakti first, and the other from one to three hours later".
For Vipassana and Zen meditation, both the feelgood and the "altered states" sessions are good candidates
for sessions over both sides of your head, and the hippocampal signals over only the right side.
When doing Shakti sessions to enahnce meditation, it's good to have some patience, as it can take several sessions
before you notice your meditation becoming deeper. In fact, asking yourself "Is my meditation getting deeper?"
can be a distraction from meditation itself.
Devices using galvanic electricity are an exception to this rule, which you can read about here. |
