Epsilon & Gamma/HyperGamma

Epsilon: There is deep, and then there is deep.
Gamma-HyperGamma: Extraordinary focus. Accelerated information processing. Expansive compassion.

Epsilon and Gamma/HyperGamma are contained with Profound Meditation 3.0 Full Spectrum but you can also purchase them separately, here.

Epsilon: Though the brainwave patterns on the Primary Meditation Tracks go as low as 0.3 Hz—which is truly deep enough for advanced spiritual growth—some of us really would like to go as deep as possible in meditation. For those of you who share this aspiration, the Epsilon Program takes you there. The frequencies on these tracks range from 0.1 Hz to 0.001 Hz.

Gamma-HyperGamma: Extraordinary focus. Accelerated information processing. Expansive compassion. These are some of the qualities that have been associated with high-amplitude Gamma brainwave activity (40-99 Hz) in advanced meditators while practicing Tibetan Buddhist Loving-Kindness Meditation.

More About Epsilon

Why would you want to take your meditation practice to the very limits? Maybe just because you can. But also, there is evidence to suggest that these ultra-low frequency brainwave patterns can act as carriers for some of the ultra-fast frequencies found in highly advanced meditators and associated with extraordinary experiences and insights.

The Epsilon tracks are thus one of the most experimental and cutting-edge aspects of the overall Profound Meditation Program. The feedback so far from early adopters has been phenomenal, and we invite to join us in the adventure.

Use these tracks to supplement, extend, deepen, and add even greater dynamic variability to your Primary Meditation.

More About Gamma/HyperGamma

Consciousness researcher Dr. Jeffrey Thompson found activity even faster than this, which he referred to as Hyper-Gamma (100 – 199 Hz) and correlated this state with extraordinary states of consciousness and spiritual development.

The Gamma & Hyper-Gamma Program is designed to stimulate these ultra-activated brainwave states. By substituting the Gamma & Hyper-Gamma Program for your Primary Meditation sessions every 3rd or 4th day, for example, you’ll not only add refreshing new energy to your weekly practice, but also create a truly full-spectrum spiritual practice that includes all of the major brainwave patterns: Hyper-Gamma, Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta, and Epsilon.

Testimonials

On my train ride home in the afternoon, I've been using the Gamma tracks as I read. Again, deep entrainment, strong focus, this is the most powerful entrainment I've had while not meditating.”

~ Matthew Nicholl

Well I've had some of the deepest ever with Epsilon including full blown mystical experiences. Very deep, and yet I stay perfectly awake 90% of the time, even to Epsilon.”

~ Jamie Bazil

Epsilon is the most profound of audio entrainment techniques I have used . I have been using these techniques for many years and I salute you and your team for such enlightening work.

Additional Info

The Experience

EPSILON

IMPORTANT NOTE ON OPTIMAL USE OF EPSILON:

The Epsilon sessions do not feature a ramping descent that begins at the Beta pattern (which will most often be the predominant pattern before starting a meditation session) and slowly descends to the Delta pattern.

Optimal entrainment, therefore, will occur if you first listen to Track 1 (Descent from Beta to 1 Hz Delta in the first 16.5 min, followed by 3.5 min of 1 Hz entrainment) of the Primary Meditation Tracks before listening to Track 1 of Epsilon.

An example of this would be as follows:

Meditation Session

Primary Meditation Tracks (from any one of the three Tiers) – Track 1 – 20 min
Epsilon – Track 1 – 20 min
Epsilon – Track 2 – 20 min
Epsilon – Track 3 – 20 min
TOTAL = 1 hour 20 min meditation session

Further Important Notes:

Listening to Epsilon Track 1 (or any of the Epsilon tracks, for that matter) without first listening to Primary Meditation Track 1 will still result in entrainment. The resulting degree of entrainment, however, will usually not be as great as it is when first listening to Primary Meditation Track 1.
To experience the greatest degree of entrainment with Track 2 of Epsilon, it is advised to first listen to Track 1 of Epsilon.
Likewise with Epsilon Track 3, optimal entrainment will occur when it is preceded by Epsilon Track 2.
Because Epsilon Tracks 2 and 3 are uncommonly deep, it may take a few minutes after having begun before you notice your brain “locking in” to the entrainment signals.
The more often you use the Epsilon tracks, the more deeply you will entrain to their signals as repeated use trains the brain to respond more sensitively to the entrainment stimulus.
The Epsilon tracks add yet another element of variety to the PMP 3.0 system, allowing for the greatest degree of variability and precision stimulation.

GAMMA/HYPERGAMMA

NOTE: Because of the ultra-stimulating nature of the Gamma/Hyper-Gamma states, we recommend meditating with these tracks only two or three times per week, depending on your sensitivity. This CD is best used to add occasional variety to your use of PMP 3.0. By substituting this CD for your Primary Meditation sessions every 3rd or 4th day, for example, you’ll not only add some refreshing new energy to your weekly practice, but also create more of a full-spectrum spiritual practice that includes all of the major brainwave patterns: Hyper-Gamma, Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta and Epsilon.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON OPTIMAL USE OF Gamma/Hyper-Gamma:

Track 1 of the Gamma/Hyper-Gamma sessions begins in Beta (the predominant brainwave pattern during the waking state) and ramps up to the Gamma pattern. Track 2 begins at the Gamma frequency and ramps up even higher within the Gamma range. Track 3 begins where Track 2 leaves off and ramps up to Hyper-Gamma.

Optimal entrainment, therefore, will occur if you first listen to Track 1 before listening to Track 2. Likewise, you will more than likely entrain optimally if you precede Track 3 with Tracks 1 and 2.

That being said, the entrainment stimulus in this recording is effective enough that you may well be able to skip Track 1 and go straight to Track 2 or 3, and still experience a high degree of entrainment. This will, however, vary from person to person. Feel free to experiment.

The Story

Epsilon

Consciousness researcher Dr. Jeffrey Thompson altered conventional EEG equipment to study the extraordinary states of consciousness of seasoned meditators and yogis. He later decided to call one of these uncommon states of consciousness he discovered Epsilon, a brainwave pattern even slower than Delta.

Dr. Thompson measured the range of this pattern to be from below 0.5 Hz (or cycles per second) to as low as one quarter cycle every ten seconds. He also discovered properties of this pattern that led him to believe it to be a carrier wave for the ultra-fast brainwave patterns he observed in other expert meditators, patterns as fast as 200 Hz or more.

Gamma

Researchers have discovered high-amplitude Gamma activity (40 – 99 Hz) in the brains of highly seasoned meditators during the practice of the Tibetan Buddhist Loving-Kindness Meditation. This pattern has been associated with exceptional information processing, compassion and extraordinary focus.

User Reports

What has had the most noticeable effect on me has been the Flow State and GHG tracks. I listen to them just about every day on the way to work and have them on repeat for an hour or two at work.

I think that there is a belief in the contemplative world that everyone needs a ton of meditation and relaxation and everyone is too engaged and needs to disengage to counteract the natural doing tendency of modernity.

For me, I have always been the opposite. Engagement in life has been a struggle. I have a natural tendency to resist life and engaging and to check out. I used to be clinically dissociated until it was resolved by experiential and parts based therapy several years ago. I used to only experience these high beta and gamma states in peak experiences and somatic releases. For me, peak experiences and samadhi seem to be correlated much more with my system being aroused than highly relaxed and subdued.

I yearn to be vivified, to have a kundalini awakening. I have practiced Reichian breathing for up to an hour until I experienced mild hyperventilation syndrome.

So the point is, the GHG quality of experience is the missing quality and states of experience much more than meditative states have ever been. These more yang tracks have given me the ability to feel that highly rewarding state of engagement and productivity that gives me a real life.
