A waste of time and development. You aren't meditating if someone's telling you
what to think and visualize the whole time.

I have a different perspective. 
When you have someone that has never been able to stop his very active thoughts...
struggling with stress, deadlines, bad relationships, financial problems,
no health insurance, barking dogs, no sleep, divorces, kids in trouble...
Then, by golly...Do whatever you can ...listen to subliminal messages, peaceful music or
someone aiding you in some visualizations...maybe telling you
to breathe in some rhythm...or feel your toes relaxing.
Do anything you can to find a stress-free state of mind.
Hahaha, even chant something in a foreign language, who cares.
Sure, it is not officially meditation...that can come later. 
Very nice thread, ammoniaeyes.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.
