Meditation Question, i.e. what I see during my meditation

Hi!  I have been trying to meditate again recently to open up my my mind a bit more.  As with most, shutting off the constant thoughts is very, very, very tough.  When I start doing better I can see color blobs moving and a single eye looking back, tunnel movement. What I have noticed a few times now is what appears to be the silhouette of the top of a bare tree line.  In other words I am seeing a negative of bare branches....the tops of trees.  Does this make sense to anyone???  Thanks in advance :-)

Hey Stef,

It does make sense that you are starting to see various images, etc. While I won't try to intuit them specifically, I would encourage you to keep doing it.  As you shut your head off more and more (which can be difficult), your experiences will become more vivid. Keep at it because eventually you will get to a place where everything starts making a lot more sense.

A technique I've started using which I find effective, is to just focus on your breathing i.e say to yourself (not out loud) as you breath in, say breath in, as you breath out ,say breath out, this tends to cut out any critical conscious chatter.

how would you do this working meditation?

I am just learning about this & found this thread helpful. I too have problems quieting the mind.

Gypsy Genie :  This is great input!  Detaching oneself from the thoughts that may seep in appears to be more reasonable than shutting it off completely, which often seems like a daunting task for the newcomer to meditation.

Thank you everyone for your feedback on meditation :-)  I greatly appreciate it.  It is good to know that their are others out there that can answer questions that I am often seeking.  Peace to you.

     Humans want meaning. That's why constant thoughts interfere. Meditation is experience, like a summer day in the park. The point is experience, not interpretation. Sitting on a beach, images arise. The point is to remove life from meaning, and present it as experience. You experience it, but maybe you don't need to assign a meaning. Maybe it just is.

Only you will be able to correctly define what your vision means.
I suggest you journal all your visions - whether you write them or draw them.
Start to do some word association as well - for instance what does a bare tree mean to you? Silhouettes? Negatives?
For example, negative/silhouette brings to mind shadow work to me for some reason. Bare trees to me mean staring over, regenerating, a cycle. My meanings will not be the same as yours and particularly so because I imagine the images differently to how you saw them =)
Also look around for the spiritual meanings of colours and in particular - Orbs, search until you resonate with particular meanings as each resource you look at will vary.

I have also learnt meditation music is what suits me, a little bit of a focus means less room for floating thoughts =)
Good luck.
