Below is a
true experience from Ms Cheng.
Ms Cheng is
a 20 odd years old lady who has learnt many meditation techniques through
self-study methods. She got most of her materials through CD and books. Cheng
is inspired to integrate all available meditative techniques to form her own school.
As she has wished, Cheng possess the ability to see and communicate with
spirits in her meditation. Soon things got out of hand and the apparition she
saw would not disappear after she ends her meditation session.
According
to Cheng, she subsequently felt that there is ‘something’ in her body and it is
very powerful. She also can see strange lights in her altar. But when I looked
at her, her eyes fall deep into her eye sockets, add to that there is a layer
of black aura surrounding her eye sockets. It is really doubtful if Cheng is already
possessed!
In fact,
Cheng’s case is not isolated. There are many other similar incidents out there.
Many Yoga self learners complaint of being disturbed by spirits during their
meditation. A psychologist may attribute this as some kind of mental disorder,
hallucination or psychosis.
Things like
that of meditation, hypnotism or even Chinese Qigong (breathing exercises) are
best to be learnt under the guidance of experts. If a person has a weak spirit
or mental illness, once he or she is engaged in a meditative practice, it is
easy to see illusions. Hence in long run, these illusions will be imprint into
one’s subconscious mind and these imprints will be reflected out as a true
object even the person is in his or her wakeful state. Without proper guidance,
this particular person will not be able to differentiate what he or she sees is
real or hallucination.
There are
millions of people practicing meditations worldwide. According to experts,
meditation will cause a person to fall into the feeling of emptiness; hence a
person with weak spirit or mental illness should not try on his or her own.
Instead this person should do more exercises, and meditation cannot be learnt
by just closing your eyes alone.
