<OT> Since you like to explore the esoteric, here is a link of what I found doing my research on Sufism and the subject of meditation.. If you are interested that is..

When we hear or think of meditation, we commonly imagine a practice where one sits in a quiet place in a peaceful state of mind. The goals of meditation that come immediately are likewise very general: to free one's self from the heavy burden of everyday living; to get in touch with one's true self, whatever that may be. This common understanding of meditation embraces, of course, many different practices. Such a process, which has been a dominant characteristic of a major part of spiritual practices today, is indeed a positive practice, but is not what Sufism has in mind.
