Is possible that our concious mind be made dead?

Question

i personally think that by meditation we can slowly make our concious mind to disappear... do u agree ?

Answer 1

Yes I agree to a point! When one meditates your mind is cleared of thought, if you do rapid breathing while meditating, due to lack of oxygen you can experience a near death experience!

Answer 2

There is nothing called death of the concious mind.The reason is that the concious collectively can be divided into 1)UNCONCIOUS 2) SUBCONCIOUS 3)CONCIOUS 4) SUPERCONCIOUS the ego continuosly jumps like a FROG in these four categories of collective concious .During meditation the concious can go to the either ends . If it goes backwards it feels like the concious mind which we think we live in was dead after we come out of the first two states back to the concious mind. If the ego frog jumps to the fourth the state of total awareness it can create the feeling of concious death . I think what is happenning is TRANSFORMATION OF CONCIOUS . We have to stop talking about death with respect to every thing.

Answer 3

If by meditation you mean the absence of the inner dialogue or the inner chatter that most of us will engage in when we are alone, then yes, I would agreed that the consciousness will evaporate, dissolve or otherwise be made dead. It will be reactivated though when we choose it to be.

The difficulty is that many people like/enjoy thinking. Stopping thinking (meditating) is difficult to accomplish one enjoys the activity.

Answer 4

Concious mind disappears when one achieves breathless state through meditation techniques.of KRIYA YOGA.

Answer 5

If you mean by that, that you are becoming unconscious, then you are no longer meditating.

Conscious means to be aware
Conscience means to care
But we must be aware to care
Thus we have conscious conscience
Does this mean we have no conscience
when we are unconscious?
That when we are unaware,
we don’t care
or does it mean that we don’t care
when we are unaware?

I have seen this dilemma of conscious versus conscience.
It seems to me that both apply
especially when a person is acting on the sly.
For, it seems to me, when they are aware
they still don’t care
Not even when they are unaware,
it would seem, they don’t care.
They only care if they are aware
that they might be unaware
about something that they care.

If you think this is a bunch of nonsense,
I assure you that there is some sense
in what appears to be nonsense
within the sense of what I wrote.
You need only to seek the logic within the note.

Answer 6

The goal is to become the observer of consciousness as a whole after transcending/the death of the subconscious. It is our programmed compulsions that disrupt the mind/reality bliss. Practicing "going to the gap between thoughts" is dangerous if we still harbor hidden compulsions, beliefs, phobias etc.

Answer 7

why would you want your consciousness to lessen?? the journey is to expand it until you are one with all.meditation can bring to the surface the unconscious and the sub-conscious.you can disconnect your nueronets which are the roads of the mind that seem to have those pesky triggers that usually enable fear,doubt and insecurities and make you a more peaceful,loving,humble and allowing entity.look do a search on the terms KUNDALINI AWAKENING or KUNDALINI RISING and you can strive for that level of conscious mind

Answer 8

It does not disappear. It is only occupied; thus freeing the subconscious to make its presence more acutely known.

Answer 9
