As I've said before, I'm a how-does-it-work kinda guy. I'm a practical, hands-on kinda guy. The spiritual pathway is, first and foremost, immensely practical. I amongst all the search for words to use, the practicality seems to be getting lost.
Beware of the empty words of rhetoric poses as meaningful tools for growth. Before you get freedom, you will be challenged in what you know. that's the sign of the times. Lots of folks use words without an inherent meaning. It seems to be the human way; talk to talk.
"Brainwave frequency", "brainwave state coherence", and similar terms have become dogma of the new age philosophy. That a human brain has one single "state" as measured by a frequency, is a indoctrination into new age philosophy.
Modern, mainstream use of "frequency," is more of a signal that they're in the "in crowd." It becomes a meaningless descriptor of something important. Frequency of what exactly? Without saying what it is a frequency of, the phrase is meaningless.
The idea that the brain organ has a fixed "state" based upon a frequency count is a new age construct. The idea that your brain can "cohere", is new age mythos.
Traditional spiritual texts explain that the brain operates by committee. The wisdom traditions, such as Buddhism, discuss the ways to quiet the mind. The number one goal of meditation is to still, and quiet the mind.
Even during meditation, in a affirmative setting, even then the mind is not still often. It takes ALOT to get the brain into close to anything like coherence, where the head is not full of chatter.
All brains chatter, therefore are not in coherence. The best that a person can do, is to allow the internal brain dialog to go one, without paying it attention.
Brainwave state is a red herring, relative to spiritual growth. The dogma seems to be that one state of frequency can rule the mind. It seems that if yu would just concentrate, then your brain becomes one single "state." There's no traditional teachings that back this myth into actual reality. Feel free to believe as you see fit, however.
"What is an EEG?
"Electroencephalography, or EEG, is the physiological method of choice to record the electrical activity generated by the brain via electrodes placed on the scalp surface. For faster application, electrodes are mounted in elastic caps similar to bathing caps, ensuring that the data can be collected from identical scalp positions across all respondents.
"Electroencephalography (EEG) Definition:
" measures electrical activity generated by the synchronized activity of thousands of neurons (in volts)
" provides excellent time resolution, allowing you to detect activity within cortical areas -even at sub-second timescales.
"As the voltage fluctuations measured at the electrodes are very small, the recorded data is digitized and sent to an amplifier. The amplified data can then be displayed as a sequence of voltage values."
( https://imotions.com/blog/what-is-eeg/ )
EEG is measuring the voltage peaks. Those peaks are what you are calling frequency. EEG-measured frequency count is a capture of the LOUDEST signals in the brain. Whatever part of the brain is most active at that moment, is that which creates the "state." There is no brain state; there's simply the loudest electro-chemical signals operating at the moment.
The analogy of the brain's operation is a crowded room, that's always full; but one person is talking the loudest. There are side conversations, people coughing, or sneezing, etc. All the attendees are paying attention the best they can to the loudest speaker, but it's still a crowd, with multiple parties vying for attention, at their appointed times. Sometimes, however, one speaker wants to dominate conversation, and the room. This can be the waking consciousness of everyday life. Other speakers might want to be heard, yet, the waking consciousness might not want to give up that control.
I learned in Psychology 101 that the brain organ has multiple parts/sections. Within different areas, the multitude of physiological functions (or "aggregates," as the Buddhists call it).
Towards understanding the myth of "brainstate coherence" based on frequency count of neurons firing, let's look at the structure of the "thinking" organ.
"What is the brain made of?
"Weighing about 3 pounds in the average adult, the brain is about 60% fat. The remaining 40% is a combination of water, protein, carbohydrates and salts. The brain itself is a not a muscle. It contains blood vessels and nerves, including neurons and glial cells.
"Main Parts of the Brain and Their Functions
"At a high level, the brain can be divided into the cerebrum, brainstem and cerebellum.
"Cerebrum
"The cerebrum (front of brain) comprises gray matter (the cerebral cortex) and white matter at its center. The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum initiates and coordinates movement and regulates temperature. Other areas of the cerebrum enable speech, judgment, thinking and reasoning, problem-solving, emotions and learning. Other functions relate to vision, hearing, touch and other senses.
"Cerebral Cortex
"Cortex is Latin for “bark,” and describes the outer gray matter covering of the cerebrum. The cortex has a large surface area due to its folds, and comprises about half of the brain’s weight.
"The cerebral cortex is divided into two halves, or hemispheres. It is covered with ridges (gyri) and folds (sulci). The two halves join at a large, deep sulcus (the interhemispheric fissure, AKA the medial longitudinal fissure) that runs from the front of the head to the back. The right hemisphere controls the left side of the body, and the left half controls the right side of the body. The two halves communicate with one another through a large, C-shaped structure of white matter and nerve pathways called the corpus callosum. The corpus callosum is in the center of the cerebrum.
"Brainstem
"The brainstem (middle of brain) connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. The brainstem includes the midbrain, the pons and the medulla.
" Midbrain. The midbrain (or mesencephalon) is a very complex structure with a range of different neuron clusters (nuclei and colliculi), neural pathways and other structures. These features facilitate various functions, from hearing and movement to calculating responses and environmental changes. The midbrain also contains the substantia nigra, an area affected by Parkinson’s disease that is rich in dopamine neurons and part of the basal ganglia, which enables movement and coordination.
" Pons. The pons is the origin for four of the 12 cranial nerves, which enable a range of activities such as tear production, chewing, blinking, focusing vision, balance, hearing and facial expression. Named for the Latin word for “bridge,” the pons is the connection between the midbrain and the medulla.
" Medulla. At the bottom of the brainstem, the medulla is where the brain meets the spinal cord. The medulla is essential to survival. Functions of the medulla regulate many bodily activities, including heart rhythm, breathing, blood flow, and oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. The medulla produces reflexive activities such as sneezing, vomiting, coughing and swallowing.
"The spinal cord extends from the bottom of the medulla and through a large opening in the bottom of the skull. Supported by the vertebrae, the spinal cord carries messages to and from the brain and the rest of the body.
"Cerebellum
"The cerebellum (“little brain”) is a fist-sized portion of the brain located at the back of the head, below the temporal and occipital lobes and above the brainstem. Like the cerebral cortex, it has two hemispheres. The outer portion contains neurons, and the inner area communicates with the cerebral cortex. Its function is to coordinate voluntary muscle movements and to maintain posture, balance and equilibrium. New studies are exploring the cerebellum’s roles in thought, emotions and social behavior, as well as its possible involvement in addiction, autism and schizophrenia.
"Brain Coverings: Meninges
"Three layers of protective covering called meninges surround the brain and the spinal cord.
" The outermost layer, the dura mater, is thick and tough. It includes two layers: The periosteal layer of the dura mater lines the inner dome of the skull (cranium) and the meningeal layer is below that. Spaces between the layers allow for the passage of veins and arteries that supply blood flow to the brain.
" The arachnoid mater is a thin, weblike layer of connective tissue that does not contain nerves or blood vessels. Below the arachnoid mater is the cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF. This fluid cushions the entire central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and continually circulates around these structures to remove impurities.
" The pia mater is a thin membrane that hugs the surface of the brain and follows its contours. The pia mater is rich with veins and arteries.
"Lobes of the Brain and What They Control
"Each brain hemisphere (parts of the cerebrum) has four sections, called lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital. Each lobe controls specific functions.
" Frontal lobe. The largest lobe of the brain, located in the front of the head, the frontal lobe is involved in personality characteristics, decision-making and movement. Recognition of smell usually involves parts of the frontal lobe. The frontal lobe contains Broca’s area, which is associated with speech ability.
" Parietal lobe. The middle part of the brain, the parietal lobe helps a person identify objects and understand spatial relationships (where one’s body is compared with objects around the person). The parietal lobe is also involved in interpreting pain and touch in the body. The parietal lobe houses Wernicke’s area, which helps the brain understand spoken language.
" Occipital lobe. The occipital lobe is the back part of the brain that is involved with vision.
" Temporal lobe. The sides of the brain, temporal lobes are involved in short-term memory, speech, musical rhythm and some degree of smell recognition.
"Deeper Structures Within the Brain
"Pituitary Gland
"Sometimes called the “master gland,” the pituitary gland is a pea-sized structure found deep in the brain behind the bridge of the nose. The pituitary gland governs the function of other glands in the body, regulating the flow of hormones from the thyroid, adrenals, ovaries and testicles. It receives chemical signals from the hypothalamus through its stalk and blood supply.
"Hypothalamus
"The hypothalamus is located above the pituitary gland and sends it chemical messages that control its function. It regulates body temperature, synchronizes sleep patterns, controls hunger and thirst and also plays a role in some aspects of memory and emotion.
"Amygdala
"Small, almond-shaped structures, an amygdala is located under each half (hemisphere) of the brain. Included in the limbic system, the amygdalae regulate emotion and memory and are associated with the brain’s reward system, stress, and the “fight or flight” response when someone perceives a threat.
"Hippocampus
"A curved seahorse-shaped organ on the underside of each temporal lobe, the hippocampus is part of a larger structure called the hippocampal formation. It supports memory, learning, navigation and perception of space. It receives information from the cerebral cortex and may play a role in Alzheimer’s disease.
"Pineal Gland
"The pineal gland is located deep in the brain and attached by a stalk to the top of the third ventricle. The pineal gland responds to light and dark and secretes melatonin, which regulates circadian rhythms and the sleep-wake cycle.
"- Ventricles and Cerebrospinal Fluid
"Deep in the brain are four open areas with passageways between them. They also open into the central spinal canal and the area beneath arachnoid layer of the meninges.
"The ventricles manufacture cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, a watery fluid that circulates in and around the ventricles and the spinal cord, and between the meninges. CSF surrounds and cushions the spinal cord and brain, washes out waste and impurities, and delivers nutrients.
"Blood Supply to the Brain
"Two sets of blood vessels supply blood and oxygen to the brain: the vertebral arteries and the carotid arteries.
"The external carotid arteries extend up the sides of your neck, and are where you can feel your pulse when you touch the area with your fingertips. The internal carotid arteries branch into the skull and circulate blood to the front part of the brain.
"The vertebral arteries follow the spinal column into the skull, where they join together at the brainstem and form the basilar artery, which supplies blood to the rear portions of the brain.
"The circle of Willis, a loop of blood vessels near the bottom of the brain that connects major arteries, circulates blood from the front of the brain to the back and helps the arterial systems communicate with one another."

That's signifigant to know what we're talking about, relative to the uphill battle of brainwave state coherence.
The talking circuits are always at work, when you're in a society that seems to only value talking, well above any gesture you might make.
Additionally, in this uphill battle of the meaning of frequency, relative to anything useful to a spiritual program, is the diversion, of bifurcation coming at higher frequencies of brainwave action.
As your brainwave state" coming withe loudest frequencies, you'll be in said "state". You personally, are likely not controlling this. If you're like the rest of everyone I meet here, you're at the mercy of the external world, you're linguistically intellectualizing.
Meditation, and practicing spiritual principles through the day, as you're challenged by that around you, is the keep to balancing the series of frequencies interacting throughout your day.
I offer the foregoing with love, and respect to people, seeking the true tech to the alchemy being imposed upon the people.
At every Time Of Crossing, that which happens at the Clearing times, there's always give one, or a few who are tuned-in Source, to assist the people.
Ive officially graduated the School, having successfully completed my Contract here. This effort here is of love from Source that you might not get shared at a time where even the very Elect Themselves are challenged to the very core of who and what they are. There are those getting turned to the dark forces, because it can get that bad. I know this personally.
I hear it calling me....
Yet, don't lose hope. Don't lose focus. Keep your eyes and intention focused on the prize. This idea of the prize might be different for everyone, but ultimately it's our own version of Heaven we're looking for.
It's not your frequency that matters, it's your quotient for love, and the ability to radiate-out waves of the pure tone of the Comforter.
Find your still point. Be at one with who, and what you are.
They throw these mystical, pseudo-sci, technical-seeming phrases, and you're getting baffled, confounded, confused, and never at a state of union with the All, for all of the chasing after frequencies.
God Source Creator loves the humans more than you can ever imagine.
Do well, be well. Resonate love right where you are. Therein is all that matters, ever.
