Hello all. This is my gathered knowledge based on Ra's perspective.
Ra speaks of the Meditator and the Adept. These are the main schools of mental work I've encountered and experienced also.
I think they cannot be separated.
The Meditator clears the mind, learning to focus on 1 thought and then let that thought vanish. Then there is no thought, there is only awareness and there is no 'static' that can interfere with self to self development and learning. This is the pure knowing of self, and your 3D brain cannot fathom it entirely, but you can learn some things here of course. Also, this is most meaningful when wanting higher entities to transmit information to you. Just ask, open yourself (meditate) and receive. Self to (higher) self communication takes place here.
You may get 'thought bubbles' with seemingly random information that you just 'made up' (but actually received) which is profound. This you may have experienced many times.
The Adept is the visualizer. He uses the mind in an entirely different way, but of course you can be a Meditator and and Adept simultaneously, they're just different ways for 'enlightenment'.
You learn to visualize all things entirely. All 5 senses simulated, all nuanses and happenings, words, actions, thoughts, feelings. You become the situation you visualize. You may have felt this some times, I did it when I was age 5-10. I sat staring out of the window visualizing things. Then, suddenly, I was there and I played, had fun and whatnot.
I train on this currently, but I've never come close to my childhood visualizations so far.
The purpose of becoming and Adept is that you can resolve issues and find creativity. A great desire to have fun and amuse yourself, "amusing yourself with distortions" as Ra put it, can be satiated by proper Adept training. My main interest to use visualization is to resolve catalyst which is very difficult to resolve in the physical world. Also to 'amuse myself' a little perhaps...
Remember, you ARE the whole world. It is there inside you, simply access it. There is no 'imagined' visualization - it exists as much as the physical world outside you. It is 'real' visualization.
Basically; a great Adept can heal and balance all chakras and resolve all issues within himself.
A great Meditator can look deeper within himself and the world.
They complement each other nicely. You gather knowledge while meditating and put them to use while visualizing.
You may find them merging. Sitting thinking about nothing, then suddenly you'll have a great visualization, then nothing etc. It is hard to describe. This is what I mean by that they cannot be separated.
To train to meditate: There is no 'best way', the only purpose is to make your mind silent. Do it in whatever way you wish. It takes time.
To train visualization: Well, just go crazy!!! There's not anything more to it! You can only get better at visualization by doing it.
