I know that I've heard many musicians say that their best works were those that came out very fast and all at once... like their hands can hardly keep up with the stream... to write it down.

Yeah ive felt that SS.. sometimes when im playing my guitar.. its going great.. a little too great for my 'normal' ability.. and i look at my hands and they dont even feel like my own.. and im thinking at the same time as playing.. 'im not playing this at all'. Its a very strange but liberating feeling. It doesnt happen as often as i would like it too though.
As for the thread.. good replies everyone! When i meditate i guess i dont empty my mind so to speak.. i just place my awrarness upon my breath (pranayama).. and i guess its this concentration of awareness on one thing.. which is constant which brings about the introduction of other thoughts trying to 'get in'.. so to speak.
