A: Meditation implies mental imagery, whereas investigation is for the reality. The former is objective, whereas the latter is subjective. Q: There must be a scientific approach to this subject. A: To eschew unreality and seek the reality is scientific. Q: I mean there must a gradual elimination, first of the mind, then of the intellect, then of the ego. A: The Self alone is real. All others are unreal. The mind and intellect do not remain apart from you. The Bible says, "Be still and know that I am God." Stillness is the sole requisite for the realisation of the Self as God.
