The Misconception of focal meditation

So hear we are we're trying to sit or stand and clear our mind by focusing on one thing like a candle or a point somewhere on a wall so that everything else disappears and only that one thing exists in the mind.

But have you noticed you are using the mind to be focused on one thing. This is the reason A Key was created, the conscious mind isn't going to tell you anything more than the exact definition and dimensions of what you are looking at.
It will not get you to the legendary aspects of meditative skill, it will cause you to become so fixed upon what is outside of yourself that you forget to look inside and you continue with a renewed vigor on attaching yourself to objects outside of yourself.  
Now for those of you who have mastered this skill. If you have a project due or some tedious work to get done or you need detail within a given physical subject this meditation is perfect but this meditation is for work here and is rightly named focusing meditation. 
Its job is to define reality as we see the effect of the source at a heightened aspect and is a point upon the sphere it does not give you the great key which is  the reason A key was given. A Key gives you the understanding of all the meditations and what their true purpose is and you can see from A Key meditation how it all fits together and how other journeyman have gotten caught and fixated within describing what they see very well but not being in harmony with the manifesting forces of life.  
The mind is a part of the outer most sphere the emotions and all the senses belong to the densest part of this realm. A key takes to the place just before this so you can sit back and observe and align yourself in the way you choose. Now for those who know you are always aligning yourself in this way you are just not consciously aware that you are doing this.  
That's what The Secret is about and Abrahim and Hicks and the Dr. Dwayne Dyers are all talking about.  
Finding ways to get to The Source. This A Key is The physical key that goes directly to the source. Try it out and prove me wrong. I double dare you. 
Lol. Now remember follow everything to the letter but even if you do not do not despair you are just fine none the less.
