Jose Silva Meditation
meditation – alpha level?
i am exploring an audio course by jose silva; can anyone tell me what it means (if anything) to see colors in the alpha state – i actually began to see a purple background with hazy, black shapes that seemed to float and fly by me and behind me. geez, reading this back, that sounds strange – lol- but seriously, any thoughts? thanks. 
The visions/sign that you see are actually a state of reality which is not real.
Reality because it is visible but unreal because it is a mental make-up/creation, which the Buddhist texts call ‘Nimitta’, which can be made up of various images.
The “sign” means a characteristic mark or phenomenon, which accompanies and helps identify an experience. For example, the flu is often accompanied by weakness and nausea; here nausea would be a sign of the flu. Extreme joy may be accompanied by a feeling of lightness of body and tears; these would be signs of joy.
According to the definitions (taken from Commentarial sources) found in Nyanatiloka’s Buddhist Dictionary, there are three types of nimitta. The first type is the parikamma-nimitta,which refers to the perception of the object at the very beginning of concentration -it is also known as the “preparatory image or sign.” When the mind reaches a weak degree of concentration, a still unsteady and unclear image or sign called the “acquired sign” (uggaha-nimitta) arises. This percept precedes the appearance of an entirely clear and static image called the “counter-image” or “counter-sign” (the patibhaga-nimitta). The appearance of this third type of nimitta signals the appearance of neighbourhood (or access) concentration, the state that precedes full jhanic absorption. Both of these states share the same sign but differ only in the intensity of the component (state) factors. As mentioned in this definition, the counter-part sign is understood as a more refined and clarified version of the sign and is the natural result of heightened awareness and concentration.
