Harsh, dude
I know. I am merely pointing out that imagining "the Source" as something different from yourself is an unnecessary step since you are already limitless existence. In this way, you are feeding the ego with the false notion that you are a small limited body/ego and there is something greater "out there" different from yourself in which you can "tap in".
Alan Watts was a wise man.

Yes, but it's like contraction and expansion. Breathing in and breathing out. Existence isn't static.
If you could store the structure of your areas of focus from meditating at one time in a sort of solid sense and reinsert it into yourself at a later, is it still necessarily meditation.
Is it simply a state of mind for health and calming or maybe inherently to allow for expansive ideas
The goal of every meditation technique is to arrive in a state where the object of meditation, the subject (mind) and the process itself merge into one. In a sense, the whole method has been devised in order to trick the mind into disappearing. What's left, if successful, is pure awareness, your true nature.
This is what has been described as Sat-Chit-Ananda (Existence - Consciousness - Bliss) in ancient texts. In that state, there is no mind or memory and you are not concerned with health issues or ideas, such things exist only when mind/ego exists. One is timeless, formless, infinite Existence - Consciousness - Bliss.
I was considering the motion that perhaps Buddhist monks were able to store the structure of someone's mental state and reinsert it into them at a later date, rather than pulling them about. From one version of themselves to another. I personally think the results would be good for relaxation but not so much for dreaming, expanding much more, etc.
Just wondered if effortless meditation would still be considered as meditation to others
I'm aware enough that you need to feel effortless in your mind to expand, just wondered if was fixed as a verb as such
It's easy enough to talk to and control people on the other side of the world of you've got the mind to. Proximity is just suggestion in a sense
I was thinking now about how you can build things spiritually.. They'd definitely be able to build something that could store the thought and emotion structures from someone in a particular state and replicate it, right?
