Related Articles Meditation (Vipassana) and the P3a event-related brain potential. Int J Psychophysiol. 2008 Sep 23; Authors: Cahn BR, Polich J A three-stimulus auditory oddball series was presented to experienced Vipassana meditators during Meditation and a control thought period to elicit event-related brain potentials (ERPs) in the two different mental states. The stimuli consisted of a frequent standard tone (500 Hz), an infrequent oddball tone (1000 Hz), and an infrequent distracter (white noise), with all stimuli passively presented through headphones and no task imposed. The strongest Meditation compared to control state effects occurred for the distracter stimuli: N1 amplitude from the distracter was reduced frontally during Meditation; P2 amplitude from both the distracter and oddball stimuli were somewhat reduced during Meditation; P3a amplitude from the distracter was reduced during Meditation. The Meditation-induced reduction in P3a amplitude was strongest in participants reporting more hours of daily Meditation practice and was not evident in participants reporting drowsiness during their experimental meditative session. The findings suggest that Meditation state can decrease the amplitude of neurophysiologic processes that subserve attentional engagement elicited by unexpected and distracting stimuli. Consistent with the aim of Vipassana Meditation to reduce cognitive and emotional reactivity, the state effect of reduced ...

Regular practice of Meditation can lead to experiencing brief flashes of inner silence, or as some spiritual traditions call it, emptiness. As one progresses with Meditation, and Meditation gets steadier and deeper, these brief moments, which may last for split seconds in the beginning, get longer and deeper. In time, the inner silence or sense of inner emptiness can be experienced not only while meditating, but also in everyday life too. The state of inner silence - emptiness requires some clarification. It is not a morbid state of indifference, numbness and lack of energy. It is not a state of lack of life force, zest and confidence and of feeling worthless. It is not the emptiness and silence of nothingness or darkness, but the majestic emptiness and vastness of endless and limitless space, full of life and light. It is an uplifting and blissful experience, brought about when the mind and the thinking process slow down or stop their restless and erratic activity, without losing consciousness or awareness. In this state you are completely conscious and alive, blissful and peaceful, without thoughts, boundaries or limitations. At these moments you experience a sense of expanded consciousness-awareness and nonduality. There are no thoughts such as "I am not thinking now", "My mind is silent" or "I am experiencing emptiness". You just feel peaceful and blissful, forgetting about your personality-ego and just BE. ...
