This article, “Meditations on Meditation” by Miles Mathis, argues that modern forms of meditation, particularly those promoted by American Yogis, are a form of mass hypnosis and Western Intelligence conspiracy designed to pacify the population and prevent dissent. Mathis contrasts this with his definition of meditation as the act of deep, contemplative thinking that was common for humans for millennia before the advent of constant artificial light and entertainment. He contends that the decline in this type of “old-style meditation” has led to a decrease in critical thinking and intelligence among modern people.

Mathis dismisses current political figures like Biden and Trump as puppets and asserts that events like the Ukraine war and the energy crisis are manufactured distractions from what he calls the “vaccine genocide.” He also criticizes conservatives, arguing they will not provide a real solution. He likens many fabricated news stories, such as the Canada stabbings and billionaire’s daughter kidnappings, to a playbook used to divert attention.

Experiencing power outages in California sparked Mathis’s reflection on how our ancestors spent significant portions of their day in darkness, engaging in contemplation. He believes this prolonged periods of thought, or “meditation,” allowed for the sorting and expansion of ideas, a capacity lost by modern individuals engrossed in superficial pop culture, fake history, and external entertainment like TV, music, and phones. He advocates for a return to this ancestral practice of deep, personal thought, free from distractions, to foster intelligence and critical thinking, warning that modern meditation actively dulls the mind and makes individuals more susceptible to suggestion. He emphasizes that true personal growth and problem-solving come from within, through dedicated introspection and engaging with one’s own thoughts, rather than seeking external validation or distraction.

Mathis suggests that life is a test orchestrated by Muses to gauge one’s spirit, and that true good is done out of inner conviction, not for reward or adherence to rules. He likens self-creation to an art project, emphasizing individuality and following one’s own path, even if it diverges from the norm or the perceived “herd.” He concludes by urging readers to disconnect from constant technological stimulation, embrace silence and nature, and engage in deep, personal thought to unlock their true intellectual potential and live a more meaningful life, free from the control of what he calls the “Matrix.”
