Discover a New Way of Being
In an ever-accelerating world, it can feel like a daunting task to find stillness and clarity. Many turn to mediation to deal with these everyday issues of reality. But what if meditation were not only about escaping reality? What if it were about understanding reality more deeply? Dr. David B. Jacobs takes you on an experiential journey that explores the nature of consciousness itself in Meditation: Diamond Bridge Connecting Waking, Dreaming, Deep Sleep, and Beyond. This is not just another spiritual book, but a practical, eye-opener on how to navigate the invisible bridge between the world in which we are awake, dreams, deep sleep, and beyond these limits.
A Journey Beyond Waking Life
Dr. Jacobs begins with a radical claim: the waking consciousness we experience day in and day out is merely a fragment of the vast range of our awareness. A true meditation process allows us to reach further into our beings than most people realize even exists. These are not distinct states of consciousness, but they are interdependent realms, and they are all available to us, should we know how to discern them.
Science Meets Spirituality
This is where Meditation: Diamond Bridge Connecting Waking, Dreaming, Deep Sleep, and Beyond shines. Dr. Jacobs is a master at combining the latest science with the ancient wisdom of yoga. He demonstrates that the principles that govern our body’s functioning are the same principles that shape our consciousness. The mind, body, and heart are not independent systems, but are energetically intertwined in a dynamic dance. This is the relationship between contemporary neuroscience and ancient spiritual practice, which challenges the reader to re-conceptualize all that they believed about consciousness.
Perception and Clarity
A foundational concept in this book is that allowing ourselves to be overly influenced by conditioning, biased memory, and a limited way of thinking dramatically shapes and clouds our perceptions. This mental fog can be swept away by deep meditation, which as a result, will allow us to see life as it is, without filters and distortions. This book presents a new approach: meditation is a powerful tool for evaporating the veil of ignorance that constantly binds and blinds us, and thereby allows us to relearn how to enjoy life in all its uniqueness.
An Introductory Guide to Meditation
Dr. Jacobs dispels the myth that in order to obtain the profound benefits of meditation, one must meditate for hours on end a day or devote themselves to becoming a monk. He, instead, talks of the science of minimums- presenting how a consistent, long-term, three minutes a day practice can be enough to bring enormous changes to awareness. Through this process, one will slowly, but progressively, dissipate the veil of ignorance that blinds us from experiencing the amazing beings we truly are.
Exploring the Dream World
Dreams are not just something arbitrary and momentary, they are another portion of our awareness, which is a subtler window into the fluid nature of our consciousness. This can be more fully experienced in the process of lucid dreaming, the process where the waking and dreaming mind are intertwined. Lucid dreaming affords us the opportunity to explore the more profound aspects of self-awareness. It utilizes the dream world to serve as a kind of training ground that enables us to become more mindful in our life experiences of the wonders within and without us.
Meditation: Life Long Process
In the concluding chapters, Dr. Jacobs makes it clear to us that the practice of meditation is a marathon, not a wild dash. The daily 3 minutes a day you consistently and sincerely practice will create a vehicle of action that progressively dissipates your veil of ignorance. This constant discovery and self-development will change your life experience, by allowing you to experience the wonders within and without us. The book, Meditation: Diamond Bridge Connecting Waking, Dreaming, Deep Sleep, and Beyond, is a book that you will not forget, urging you to explore the depths of your own consciousness.
