Trying to imitate the nondual nature of the Soul through various meditation techniques is not meditation but imitation.

Meditation is not a means to acquire Advaitic wisdom or Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. 

Meditation is not a mechanical process of forcing your attention upon an idea or object.

Without realizing the Self is not you but the Soul, meditating is useless because it is not meditation but an imitation of the formless existence.

Meditation is not Advaitic wisdom. Meditation is not a means to find the truth hidden by the form, time, and space. Without realizing the ‘Self-is not you but the Self is the Soul all the effort used in the meditation leads to hallucinate thoughtlessness.

The thoughtlessness is not wisdom. by ending the thoughts you may get peace, not Advaitic wisdom.

Meditation always means the critical analysis of the Self to get rid of ignorance. The ignorance will not vanish by reaming without the thoughts or focusing attention on some object.

Sage Sankara says ~ “The exercise in discrimination between real and unreal and renunciation of the false is real meditation, then why you are indulging in other types of meditation.

Until a man is ripe to receive Self-knowledge, it is fatal to ask him to give up meditation.

The novice seekers must understand that meditation is all right in its places and that it is good at the beginning of the pursuit of truth, but when meditation is made ends in itself and not means acquiring the theAdvaitic wisdom or  Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

It is all made so complicated, and books written by different autors have made it still more complicated. No amount of reading and understanding can lead to Self-realization.

All other teachings and practices other than Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana are for beginners only. There are stages in comprehending the truth.

Advaitic truth is the ultimate truth is for the seeker of truth. All religion, Yoga, meditation mysticism, or theology is for the lower and middling intellect.

The seeker's aim is the search for the Ultimate Truth or Brahman or God in truth. The search to find the non-dualistic or Advaitic truth that in actuality never was lost, only hidden.

Remember:~

The meditation, meditator, and the world in which meditation is performed is an illusion created out of single clay. That single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Knowledge of the single stuff is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana leads to Self-awareness.

In Self-awareness the Soul, the Self remains in its own awareness in the midst of the dualistic illusion. Self-awareness is real meditation. Thus, Self-awareness is real meditation. Mediation is the nondual nature of the Soul, the Self.

Meditation always means the critical analysis about the Self to get rid of the ignorance.
Chandogya Upanishad:~ One who meditates upon and realizes the Self discovers that everything in the cosmos-- energy and space, fire and water, name and form, birth and death, mind and will, word and deed, mantrams and meditation--all come from the Self.
People dip into meditation, but they do not understand that that is only one half of the truth and that this dipping is also a mental discipline for them to understand the true nature of the external universe, which understanding they must next get if they are to become a Gnani.
Ashtavakra says: - "This is your bondage, that you practice Samadhi or meditation.”
For meditation, one need not sit and chant God's name or concentrate on some object. Anything you do will not be meditation. If there is a doer then it is not meditation. As long as there is doing, there is ignorance. As long as the doer is present, the ego is present. If the ego is present the whole world is present. If the world is present the duality is present. If the duality is present then there is an illusion. If the illusion is present the birth, life, death, and the world are experienced as reality.
By realizing the world in which you exist is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Knowledge of the single stuff is Self-knowledge. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana leads to Self-awareness.

In Self-awareness the Soul, the innermost self remains in its own awareness in the midst of the form, time, and space. Thus, Self-awareness is real meditation. Mediation is the nature of the Soul, the innermost Self. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

There is no need to follow anyone. Self-realization becomes easy if you independently walk your path.+
