hmm.. people seem to have very rigid ideas of what meditation is, you are not meditating if you sit cross legged and think 'i am meditating'.. you are using some eastern gimmick of self hypnosis.. and thats just not how it works, J Krishnamurti said if you think you are meditating that means you arent, and that meditation literally means 'to think over' or to contemplate. the same as a scientist does. eastern mysticism has been soured by new age con men.. nuff said.

I do not see these experiences as fantasy, and predict that the more peace, love and compassion that we bring into our lives and Earth, the more we will see people experiencing this. My experience has already passed onto two others who experienced white light moments with myself with a strong connection.

"What is there" is an innate inner human quality in all of us, of compassion and love, of course we can bring that out!

I mean no disrespect to you in any way and wish you all the best!

"EXISTENCE ONLY EXISTS AS LONG AS SOMEBODY PERCEIVES IT AS EXISTING."

I know exactly what message Jacque is trying to convey, but I think the wording isn't correct. Bringing out the best in people IS something that is already there. But just because something is already there doesn't mean it is brought out.

"You can't bring out anything in a human that isn't there." This single statement uttered by this man destroys all of western and eastern myth philosophy religion and culture. The question is what do you want? What kind of person do we want? only through manipulation of the environment can we manipulate the man and woman to be peaceful productive etc.

I disagree with Mr. Fresco on this subject. While I agree that ONLY meditation will put one in a loop and won't help someone, also ONLY watching "how things work" can be harmful as well, in that a person can have what's currently referred to as "information overload." Meditation can be used to help focus the mind and enable us to absorb more information, thereby enabling us to learn better and faster.

All things can be useful in moderation, IMHO.

@AbattoirDream maybe a good starting point of valuable meditation if to grant children an hour of daydreaming every day and to think and feel over their day.

@demolitionbmxd Love and Compassion are just words my friend, that mean whatever one has learned it to be. Watch the documentary "Human Resources", then you'll understand that human beings are programmable machines.

@demolitionbmxd Sorry my friend, but you're missing his point; compassion and love are not innate qualities of human beings; these qualities are learned; meaning, you can only bring out what's learned; What you may think of as compassionate may not be compassionate in other cultures; in fact, it may be considered disrespectful in some. What you may think of love may not be considered loving in other cultures....

I dislike this; I think there needs to be a good combination of meditation and study. Self reflection is key if you dont want to repeat the mistakes of the past. Change must happen within outselvs AND culture. Both are interdependent. Too much of either will cause strife.
