Why Meditation is Essential for Creativity and Innovative Ideas

Publié le 1 février 2018 à 17:45

When an experienced meditator reaches deep meditative states, they access states of mind behind the thoughts.

Thoughts are linked to emotions. A thought forms in dependence on “I like / I don’t like” and on the many components brought by the filters of our emotions and preconceived ideas.

When the experienced meditator comes into contact with this inner space, beyond thoughts, they can then act with awareness, free from the ego’s filter of “I like / I don’t like.”

Reflection then becomes free of labeling and personal concepts, allowing for a pure vision connected with the energies of life — which include all living beings and the universe itself.

Of course, not everyone can access these liberating depths, since it requires much practice, time, and motivation. However, simply moving closer to it already allows one to cultivate healthy states of mind, and thus reasoning less influenced by ego and more connected with our inner wisdom.
