It's not all like that... that sounds like deep meditation and something that would take years of practice to master. I'm not particularly skilled at it... it's very mundane for me... but I still find it very helpful even though I've never experienced anything remotely 'transcendent' in it... and probably never will because I don't do it often enough.
He would say things about a third eye and things like that. I just recall him talking about Zen and a third eye (some gland in your brain, apparently) and outer body experiences.
It was strange, but he was a nice enough guy. Just a little "out there", as they say.
