Well Bjhn,
not being into religious stuff is a great advantage, although, like it or not, deep down you still have the beliefs system of the culture you grew up in. All religions were invented in order to manipulate people thinking and maintain control of the masses: all of them! None excluded. They were created to enslave humans. So, if you are not into that, that is great!
But I hope you do believe in Something extremely Great Who has created everything, don't you? You may call IT: Universal Intelligence, Universal Mind, God, The All That IS, whatever you like, or how would you explain what you see around yourself and also what you cannot see but still know it is there, like an incredible Cosmos which contains more than 100,000 galaxies, each of them containing trillions of stars, and each star with its own planets and moons.
Do you know of anything that creates itself? By itself and starting from nothing? And please do not mention that most stupid theory that says the universe was created by a Big Bang. A Big Bang of what? Was it nuclear, was it thermonuclear? If something exploded, there must have been something .... so what was there? And Who created that? And by the way, since when an explosion of anything creates something so beautiful and in perfect order?????? An explosion only creates chaos or destroys everything: it does not create beauty and perfection and order!!!
We humans cannot even create a mustard seed which is one of the smallest seeds. So WHO created everything?!
And, Okey, you are not into meditation as such, but meditation means to be in that relaxed state of mind during which the brain itself vibrates between 8 to 12 H/sec. and unless you are a very stressed out person and cannot ever relax, you can be sure that, willingly or unwillingly, you are often into that state. You said it yourself that when travelling in a bus you can easily drift off in a totally relaxed state of mind. At that time you really are in alpha and what is called 'meditation'.
You know, in this universe everything contracts and expands in sequence. When you think about something, your brain is contracting; the moment you stop thinking, your brain is expanding. I'm sure it happened to you many times: somebody may be asking you: "what are you thinking about" and you answer.."nothing" - and truly you were thinking of nothing. You were just blank. And it happens regularly especially to people who are not stressed out. When you are thinking of nothing, you are totally relaxed and in an alpha state and it is in that state that you get new ideas or insights about something that perhaps you had been thinking before or a problem that needs to be solved.
But it is not good to always be thinking of nothing because it is against the natural state of our brain: it is electrical and it needs to contract and expands: think of the electrical current: it requires two wires, one goes and one returns; if one is missing or short-circuited, there is no light. Correct?
When you focus on something or think about it your brain frequencies will be in the Beta, that is between 13 to 25 H/s.
Over 25 H/s, you start getting stressed and the higher the number the more stressed you are. Although it has been proved that some people, very relaxed and unworried people may think of something and still be in alpha.
Between 4 and 7 H/s you are in the Theta frequencies which we are into when we are dreaming (not day-dreaming). Below 4 H/s we enter the Delta state when we are deeply asleep. Below 0.5 you are about to die.
And that new age stuff you mention, I agree with you, it has been highly corrupted, deliberately by the dark forces still reigning freely on this planet. Purposely corrupted to create confusion. So don't worry about it, you are not missing anything yet. The time will come soon when everything will become clear and the Only TRUTH will be revealed.
Enjoy your life, you are doing fine! With my love and blessings,
Starchild
