What, exactly would happen to the average person who would be thinking up a nonsense syllable, just like any other thought? Thanks for any help you can give me.
Some random thoughts on meditation: It has already been established by John Knapp over on the Trance-nut web site that "TM" is nothing more than simply "napping" (no pundit intended) for the large majority of people. I've never heard of anyone complaining about taking a short nap, unless to say it wasn't long enough. Go figure. On the other hand, concentrated thinking on a complicated problem has been shown to produce a psycho-physical side effect known in medical and clinical studies as acute, severe headache. This has been demonstrated in scientific blind-studies, published in peer-reviewed, learned journals and on the internet. It's complicated. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast! Antivirus protection is active. http://www.avast.com
