Question:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The other day whilst reading The Path to Love<\/em>, I attempted your heart-meditation. Usually I feel as if nothing happens when I meditate, no matter how relaxed I am or how focused. But the other day when I was \u2018meditating\u2019 on my heart, the weirdest thing happened.<\/p>\n

I felt my mind wandering and so naturally, I tried to bring my focus back. But then (I guess this is the only way I can explain this) in my \u2018mind\u2019s eye\u2019 I saw an old, thin man. I don\u2019t know who he is, and I felt like he was talking, mumbling and I couldn\u2019t bring my attention back to my heart. When I tried to, he talked louder and seemed angry that I wasn\u2019t listening, or something! So in my mind I told him I was busy, to go away for a while.<\/p>\n

I feel like I am going crazy because I got worried and had a break, and attempted again. This time I saw a door, and two women who I also had no idea who they were (I can\u2019t see their faces or anything, it\u2019s all very vague) and they were talking amongst themselves.<\/p>\n

Am I going crazy!? Or was I just falling into the first stages of sleep, or something? I really don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on and I feel like maybe I\u2019m just making this stuff up without knowing??!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Response:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The images that emerged in your heart meditation aren\u2019t important. They are just the by-product of the purification process that I describe in the book. You\u00a0 can deal with those images the same way you deal with any physical sensation or emotion that comes up as a result of the meditation\u2014you easily bring your attention back to the meditation practice. There is nothing to be worried about here. This kind of purification is an integral part of the process.<\/p>\n

You had the right idea in bringing your attention back to the meditation process when the images popped up, you just got a little bit too distracted by them thinking there was some personal message in there for you to listen to or decode. When you meditate, just stick to the process, regardless of what form the purification or release takes on. Energetically it\u2019s all the same\u2026it\u2019s old conditioning that is leaving you and doesn\u2019t need further analysis because it is already going. Getting fascinated by it can only sidetrack you or get you re-involved in it.<\/p>\n
