When did I start meditating?
Well, not meditation in a true sense, but Jose Silva's "Mind Control" was the first technique that got introduced to me at the age of 9. It stayed with me for years and years, although I rarely used it in a conscious manner. When I was in the mood for it, I went for it. "Real" meditations started when I got introduced to Law of One Material - as in a year ago, or less than a year ago.
What position do I use?
Sit in a chair. I know, I know. Well, my bad blood circulation in the right leg (which keeps getting better and better, thanks to my increased movements, but I will still not "push my luck", hehe) prevents me from abusing the traditional sitting techniques, but as Ra mentioned it once, the verticality is what is really a bonus stuff, and even that is not the requirement.
What techniques do I use?
Nowadays, it all boils down to four distinct style, all being mixed in a session or used exclusively.
a) Chakra opening meditations: For activating and balancing the chakras, for facing what happened "to me", "by me" today. It is a good start or a good finisher, and it always feels amazing when all chakras flows properly.
b) Planetary healing meditations: For the Gaia 3am/3pm meditation (in our time), for simply doing Earth healing, for using the additional power available if I feel like it. Key is being ambitious: nothing wrong with thinking the largest possible scale on this one. When if not here, one might ask?
c) Personal healing: To people I know that need help, friends, loved ones, family members, etc. Myself included, although I prefer QiGong for that, and healing is a natural part of activating the violet chakra, if done properly.
d) Astral journeys: for fun. I fly around, increase my mental awareness in the astral space, try pushing the limits (including but not limited to: turning into animals, into vehicles, into concepts like wind, sunlight or even whole planets, being in N places at once, where N keeps getting higher and higher). This is usually the best part for me, or to be more precise, if I am full of energy, that makes these kind of journeys all the more awesome, and being depleted is the one that prevents me from even thinking about doing these exercises.
And for why? Well, if there is an outside and there is an inside, it is a given that one would try looking in the inside by trying to shut out as much as possible. Which means eyes closed, being in a place far from society, or behind shut doors, etc. The usual way of how every nation's meditation techniques originate from, imho.
Also, I would like to add two very, very important things! Very important!
One: There is a reason why Ra did not mention any "proper" meditations, even when outright asked. There is no two person who is identical, and the meditation is the looking and the working of the inner self, which will always remain unique depending on who is doing it. The only thing that is nice if you believe in consensus reality, and take up on tools that you know is being used by millions of people such as planetary healing or different mantras. So do not worry about what you do, NO ONE can tell you what to do but yourself
Two: As a direct result of one, you should have no expectations when you first close your eyes. Before you get your own habits done and going - which takes a month, a year, a week, whatever is your preferred speed -, you should just do what feels right. Thoughts might pop up. You react to them. Then more stuff happens. That is natural. Chakra opening/balancing can give you a framework, but the problems and feelings that arise are yours, YOU will need to deal with them - no guide can help you with that really.
