Answer 2

When we talk of 'expand' we automically visualize that there is some sort of border/boundary in place. This is the first obstacle for consciousness has no boundaries and infact, should not be chased or pursued. I do believe that if we are one in the universe, then we have already achieved consciousness by just being there - just accepting - just 'being' a live enitity.

Answer 3

The path for higher consciousness is not the issue. it is the journney and more importantly, the fuel. "self remembering"
Verify this. For an explanation of this you might look into the teachings of Ouspensky. All of the above mentioned are more than worthy of study. You have already chosen a path that you cannot change. How nice it is that you have come in contact with the wisdom to know this is possible. Be patient. This is not absolute but rather on a principle of scale. Higher consciousness is like temperature. It can be higher, then higher and even higher again. Remember, angels can fly because they take themselves lightly. I am honored by your presence.

Answer 5

After perfectly purification of heart, remaining thoughtless in state, wait to realise what you are, enthusiastically. There is no other alternative in meditation. And this is the real state of expanding consciousness and even God realization. So go on and be succeed in God realization, my heartily wish.

Caution: Meditate only at home and not outside else where because you may become victim of accident like things. Never do it emotionally but calmly.
Mind well, there are many things to consider in this field so for further information, ask personally not publicly. I am ready to share experiences for free because I am 63 years of age and leave this world any time without taking any possession with me.

Answer 8

Mind Expanding/Altering Drugs are one way, though I think more effective and permanent ways will soon be devised in the future because of the negative side effects associated with these, including poor memory. Nootropics, also known as "Smart Drugs", such as piracetam, hydergine, and nicotine, can offset some of these negative effects, and in fact, will often potentiate the positive effects of mind expanding/altering drugs. Thus, with materials readily available to us today, we can engineer our trips and expand consciousness along many different dimensions.

Consciousness depends upon our eagerness to learn more, by meditation upon any subject. For example, our monks of the old meditate for the knowledge of the Supreme Being, and they did hard labour in the form of meditation. The scientiest worked hard for certain knowledge and experiment for that ( medidate on) which resulted in inventing enermous new things on technology, medicine, and every aspects of human being. If you wish to meditate upon certain things, these are the only way means to work hard either spiritual meditation for spiritual thing and working hard which include scientifc method such as data collecting, processing, experimenting etc.
