MEDITATION
intentional consciousness is free not to choose from any of the thoughts. The 3rd state mentioned above enables a person to choose a thought which promotes a set goal. But when the goal is determined as being one with the Being or Ultimate the thought should be incapable of thought about. The best example being what Master has suggested ―Divine light without luminosity‖. But before coming to this level it may be that the intentional consciousness takes into consideration the auspicious qualities of the Divine. The 4th state mentioned is really one which is had when such thought leads to a condition when pure and simple Silence experienced and the consciousness is in a state of non-reflexion. As any other state such a one is also transitory and temporal, even as the very nature of consciousness is condemned to.
