We aim to reach oneness, to improve our connection with the divine, to open our heart, and to see in others ourselves and vice-versa. I think this can be good for people walking the STO path.
Meditation is also not something you do, but something that happens to you. Something that you become. That is given to you. Otherwise it is not meditation, it is an act of mind. Meditation is a state of pure awareness. I think the concept STS/STO (duality) cannot apply to meditation.
Found this old thread. Thanks for letting me know that meditation doesn't apply to sto/sts. I guess it's what we do with the meditation that makes the difference. If we work on ourselves, it can't inherently be sts.
