right, but that happens after the meditation. you just described deep contemplation basically. which is basically meditation.

Like if you think there's a God, don't just sit and think about it, find out what could help prove there's a God and go look for it. Then if you start to get proof there is a God, start looking for reasons that there isn't a God. It only works both ways but the best way to find out if an idea is rational is to perform the scientific method.
In the olden days meditation was the direct path to "god." they didnt have the scientific method, they didnt have instruments and computers and scanners and all this shit. all they could really do was think about shit. you would be amazed at what your mind can come up with if you meditate daily.

how the hell do you go about performing the scientific method on data you are percieving in your mind through meditation?
