At first, you attempt to understand the idea of Consciousness with your intellect, however, it is a paradox. That infinite, higher Consciousness is too subtle to be perceived with intellect. That is why we must transcend intellect and open the gates to intuition, where we can access the awareness of a miraculous, mystical presence of Oneness.
Using music helps to bypass the overactive yet limited intellect. It shifts our mood and channelizes our emotions constructively. This can awaken the subtler expression of mystical emotions that in time can lead us towards higher states of ecstasy and a deeper flow in the meditation.
You sing and meditate about the divinity that is inside of you – internally and externally.
Practice 5-15 minutes of dynamic, singing meditation and then sit to continue meditating in silence. Once the flow has been established through singing and music, it is much easier to keep it flowing in silence as well.
