All we have access to in life, are various mental and physical states our unconscious mind projects to as the conscious experience.
Sights, sounds, feelings, thoughts and taste are bound in each moment by deeper aspects of your mind to give the illusory perception of a world, self and suffering. This is your life in a nutshell.
In any style of spiritual practice, the method is always to:
1- Experience a specific 'state change' which will enable you to more easily experience something directly without pre-conscious processing through your unconscious mind.
2- This is the crux of the work. You use the mind faculties you've developed like equanimity, concentration and introspective awareness in this higher state of consciousness which becomes an easier access point for a profound insight into the nature of reality and so forth.
State changes are important in so far as they enable you to practice consistently and help your mind to investigate reality. But there is a catch! Let's investigate this matter further :)
