Meditation consciousness is important in our everyday life, as each of us lives in our normal state of consciousness, our awareness is usually focused upon the particular thoughts, what we feel or perceive as we experience on the surface level of reality, whether they are the experiences and struggles we move through in our life in the real world, or the thoughts and feelings that we have in our depth of dour thought. As we move through life, we perceive, think, act and feel with the assistance of our mind in thinking the active portion of our mind that deals with this surface level of reality, through the use of our ways of life.

Meditation consciousness make us aware usually identified with, preoccupied with and attached to, whatever of these particular activities we engage in through the use of this consciousness. Although all these particular components of our life are important, when we remain identified with, and therefore limited to, these surfaces of activities these surface appearances of our deeper being, we are far less able to perceive and act from a more fundamental level of greater awareness. The tendency of our thinking mind to remain preoccupied with the particulars of life inhibits our ability to move to the level of pure consciousness that is actually the source of all these particular states of our mind.

As we practice meditation of consciousness we seek to free ourselves from this mental process in which our mind engages, and instead seek connection to a deeper level of our being. We free ourselves from the surface level of our mind, and by doing so; we make it easier for ourselves to come into connection with a deeper concentration of our consciousness. Meditation is a process by which we seek to re-condition our conscious awareness, so that we release our attachment to the surface level of reality and instead allow the awareness to gravitate towards a state of pure awareness, pure consciousness. As we meditate in the proper manner, the experience of pure awareness itself moves more to the forefront, instead of a primary identification with the highly active surface level of our mind.

What’s the proper practice of meditation of consciousness therefore enables us to gain a better primary connection to the greater reality that is the real source of everything we experience. It is the primary connection to this greater reality that provides us the greater awareness, perceptual abilities and powers of consciousness that would ordinarily remain unavailable, should our awareness remain only in touch with the surface of reality. Our awareness, freed from identification with the particular activities of the thinking mind, is able to expand into a greater awareness of reality.
