One piece of advice of hers made be perplexed:
o Avoid much time spent in meditation. Meditation can sometimes become an invasion invitation to aliens.
What did she mean by that? :/
Why is it dangerous to meditate?
Well, done in the wrong way, for the wrong reasons, with the wrong beliefs, without knowledge and awareness, that's exactly the case: an invasion invitation.
There is meditation and meditation. For example, I think that meditating towards "emptying the mind" can be quite dangerous. One is not emptying the mind in order to fill it in with valuable knowledge, but merely for the purpose of emptying it. Once "empty", what do we allow to enter our being? During the meditative phase one may feel good, connected with the Universe or whatever, but once one is out of that state, one becomes very easy to be influenced and used by human (or other?) forces that do not have one's best interests at heart.
Even worse is the meditation that aims at only seeing Love and Light and harboring positive thoughts. Focusing on that and remaining purposefully blind to the other side of the coin can also make you very vulnerable. The degree of denial involved can alter your brain, your perceptions, and leave you unprotected.
A meditation with a seed, such as the one developed by Laura in the Éiriú Eolas program is, in my opinion, the best kind. Because while meditating, you are appealing to more knowledge about the world and yourself. That is something that can then accompany you in your normal life, and help you work toward that gathering of knowledge. It is not about self-calming and reinforcing wrong beliefs, but about self-challenging, exploration, awareness of everything as IT IS. That would naturally protect you from "aliens".
So, if you take all the types of meditation out there and the people who practice them, I would tend to agree: meditation is dangerous (for that majority).
