Formless Meditating
This is for the advanced meditater who is ready to abandon all worldly ideas and techniques for liberation. Any meditating tools to help pacify the mind such as mantras, visualizations, regulating the breath, God concepts, and so forth are of the world and ideas from our worldly existence. Which will not liberate you from the world and mind for they are concepts that are embedded in the mind and of the world, which you have to go beyond for enlightenment. The sincere seeker has no interest in the world or the mind and all of their conditions and concepts are worthless to him, even spiritual contemplation gets boring and is seen as an unproductive lost of time. He is then ready to move on and only a formless meditation is the remedy, and now this is his sole interest because all else has roots in the mind and the world. What is formless and colorless is the energy (consciousness) that flows through the body and mind. He observes that as the silent and thoughtless witness thus distancing himself from consciousness and the attributes that it brings. He constantly looks for that state where the observer and the observed eventually merge as one, which is the Samadhi State. In that harmonious state there is no longer the observed or the observer, just pure being. This state of being is the serious seekers only comfort, and every chance he gets he returns to this bliss of being without the duality of manifestation. He sits as the formless meditator waiting patiently for the clouds to break and reveal the truth. Nothing else will satisfy him, for there is no satisfaction without realization and he knows this resolutely. There is nothing in life that grabs his attention he is dieing to the world, and sees no help in lifeless scriptures or from the great sages because the weight rests solely on his shoulders. The final transition depends on his relentless pursuit and his ability to look away from the mind and consciousness all through his waking hours. To him there is only one thing that can change his outlook and he will settle for nothing else but Enlightenment.
