| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 11:08 PM PST This is kind of scary at the moment because the stress doesn't negatively affect me but I can feel it. Are there others who are experiencing this and also feel a bit unsettled? I feel unsettled because I feel like the feeling of stress will push me to work harder. [link] [comments] |
| Alternating between concentration and mindfulness in the same sit. Posted: 27 Jan 2021 08:50 PM PST Some people say that if you are not concentrating on your breath 100% then you are not meditating. I find I can only be focused on my breath for so long until I am dragged by the current, at these times I like to expand my awareness to physical sensations and it seems easier to observe a thought than to get involved in it. After my mindfulness gets dull I turn to concentration and it seems easier each time I rinse and repeat. My question is, when is it beneficial to do either or for just one session, and is it ok if I alternate between the 2. [link] [comments] |
| Alan Watts - Get Rid Of Your Ego Posted: 28 Jan 2021 01:21 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8TCFWNZx2o What is the role of the ego in our social life ? And what is the reality of the ego itself ? Is it based on something we truly valuate, or is it just an illusion in a world built on lies and faulty truths ? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 02:59 PM PST I really feel lost I don't have any important goals Like yeah i really want to see the beauty of the world When i'm in nature i'm soooooo at peace with my self and it feels soooo good And i know i will be able to do that because i have time and the funds to do it But money doesn't really matter to me i'm not an materialist at all, i don't care about buying 2 million cars or anything so people can see how rich i am noooo I just grinded for a big bag of money because i see it as free time The more money you have , the less precious time you need to waste to get it, but that doesn't really matters like i said it's just background info I just don't have this thing that thrives me And i feel like i don't have any purpose Also started meditation, really nice i like doing it everyday for that moment of peace and i really feel like i'm searching for that goal in my life i don't have andd aaaaaaaah i feel so damn lost and lonely I still am a very happy social person I really feel energy of everything like i can sense so many things My gut feeling is always the best feeling to follow and always made me do fun stuff But this whole covid stuff makes it so hard [link] [comments] |

| Meditation And The Subconscious Mind (Live Session Recording) Posted: 28 Jan 2021 02:21 AM PST Our subconscious mind is the storehouse of unlimited potential and creativity. Most of our actions are governed by the subconscious mind, which forms the dominant part of our total mind. In the live session, I spoke about the effect of meditation on the subconscious mind and how it enables the integration of the whole self. [link] [comments] |
| What is the difference between meditation and immersing yourself in an activity? Posted: 28 Jan 2021 02:17 AM PST For example, when I take a walk alone and simply allow my thoughts to flow by without holding onto them, focusing on the rhythmic movement of my footsteps and on the sounds that surround me, how is that different from sitting down and focusing on my breath, letting whatever else the mind wants to do to simply happen? Or for those of you who play a musical instrument, when you learn a piece sufficiently well there comes a point where your mind quiets down and you are playing without intention, moving along with the music so to speak. Simply listening to music with your focus on the movements and shapes it creates can have that effect as well. Likewise, there's a rhythmic aspect to reading a novel you like where your eyes start moving automatically and you're not trying intentionally to understand the words, the text plays in your head like a movie and whatever thoughts and concerns you might have had disappear as you're simply immersed in the text. My question is: how are those experiences different from meditation and why must meditation necessarily be done by focusing on the breath specifically, or on a mantra? How is there a difference between focusing on my breath and focusing on my footsteps when walking, or focusing on the flow of a text, or dancing, or listening to music, or doing any other activity where you completely immerse yourself in doing something?

| is reading a form of meditation? Posted: 27 Jan 2021 04:52 PM PST i've recently been following through on my resolution to use the internet less and read more books. After roughly a month of heavy reading I'm starting to notice similar mental states to those I experience during meditation. when i'm reading I feel fully engrossed, there are few intrusive thoughts, my mind becomes clearer, and tension and anxiety become faint or non existent. These are much of the sensations I feel when meditating. So I wonder if reading is actually a form of meditation? [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 28 Jan 2021 12:42 AM PST First off I don't know or think meditation works. But I'm willing to try. I'm a 18 year old porn addicted gaming that is almost always rage quiting or being hostile to others. I stay up late watching porn or playing games [link] [comments] |
| I started a 1000days meditation challenge Posted: 27 Jan 2021 08:55 PM PST So I started documenting my meditation practice. I have been practicing for a while but it has been on and off. This time I am going to be consistent and hence a youtube channel. https://youtube.com/channel/UCdN9H9VcBx8e5aYOUep_jyw Can you please share few tips on how to remain disciplined to the practice?

| What to do when your practice of meditation is getting humbrum Posted: 27 Jan 2021 08:23 PM PST Hi, I'm seeking for an advice, first I'm gonna introduce what's bothering me, I hope to read your comments :) I've been meditating for almost a year now, without skipping a single session (usually before going to bed). A couple weeks ago it started to feel dull and I think that I need a way to reinvent my practice of meditation, it is kinda turning into a routine and I do not know what to do about it. Take into consideration that I've meditating alone, with material that I found on internet and although I would like to join a group of meditation, it's not common where I live and it seems hard to find one. Thank you beforehand. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 08:11 PM PST Is it counter productive to let my wander throughout the day when also practicing meditation daily? I understand it's natural for the brain to wander and that's it's going to happen throughout the day at one point or another, but I tend to just let my mind do it's own thing while I'm at work and I kind of zone out on everything but the day dream in my head. I feel like a big part of meditation/mindfulness is being attentive in the moment and I was just wondering if I should snap back to reality whenever I catch myself deep in thought. I do notice myself lost in thought but I let myself continue with it because it's enjoyable. Tl;dr Is purposely letting my mind wander throughout the day counter productive to me practicing meditation and mindfulness? Any input would be great! Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| Im trapped, no seeming way out, please help Posted: 27 Jan 2021 11:48 PM PST Hi, I have been into Zen Buddhism, Meditation, and other subjects on the path of liberation. I have experienced Liberation a few times (Where outside and inside world merge into one happening) But never maintained it, I have a good amount of knowledge on the mechanics of conscious flow (How it relates to your energy, etc) (How doubt blocks flow, etc) ^^^Currently the above is hard to rationalize, due to my state of being not being aligned, although I know the truth of the mechanics. I would rather die than forget and neglect the spirtual world My Mind is completey self conscious of itself, my entire attention absorbed inside of it I meditated for a few days almost non stop and I think I created a habitual thought pattern issue. Essentially I trapped my mind into thinking about Feeling, Thinking about paying attention, and thinking about listening. Before you say just listen to the thoughts as noise, or just watch the thoughts, the issue ais im thinking about each acting as the action is done, not in a thought sense so this more just manifests as a sort of pressure in my head, and not as a actual thought that is in words or image, or has a shape. I know I just need to learn how to tune out of my thoughts, and tune back in to life but this is a sticky situation. Now every action I do is in my mind and not actually done, this just occurred to me, and im experiencing the worst life expiriance possible. I cannot hear music at all,(energy of it, spirit of it) feel any emotion, I feel this horrible unnatrual enegery in me that makes me want to smile even though it feels wrong. Im comtemplating suicide before I forget what its like to be normal and become a neurotic person, I know I need to just listen to my thoughts like they are music, but the issue is I cant remember how to listen to music correctly, and any attempt I make I think about rather than actually do, I feel as if my stream of conciousness is completed filtered though my mind not my awareness, I cant find my sense of I, I am scared that something may happen to my soul, if so I will kill myself first. I embarked on this path because I am an artist, not a musician (for those who the know the differance, ie: Davinci's Definition, I wanted to be completley in tune with my intuition, so I could work with the essence/spirit of the music I made, and create real art. Now I feel completly distant from any spiritual sense and trapped inside a mental prison, I dont want to forfiet or afffect any my own essence, if this is a risk please let me know so I can deal with it. I need a way to un-selfconious my mind. For example, right now trying to meditate on a mental point, is near impossible My mental flow is being blocked up, and it makes me feel queer, I can feel my energy moving unnatrually, not in the usual downward manner. I hope there is someone here who understands what im talking about, on a metaphysical mechanical level that can help rationalize the issue. the longer im like this the harder it is to remember normalcy, although I know that normalcy is not being aware of the mind at all, as alan watts described an organ works best/clothes are best made, when you dont notice them. Please help. [link] [comments] |
| How meditation changed my life and made me a better person Posted: 27 Jan 2021 11:33 PM PST In the beginning of 2020 my mental health declined and I started getting horrible anxiety. It got to the point where I would dread every time the sun went down because I KNEW that horrible thoughts would consume me. Unsurprisingly, I became quite a negative person to the people around me. After seeking therapy and incorporating meditation in my life I became more empathetic and I felt my old self coming back again :,). I thought that I'll always be stuck in a state of sadness and fear but I'm so grateful that I was able to conquer my inner demons with coping mechanisms now. Life is good. I made a short video on my experience on my experience. Hope you check it out, I would love to know your experience with meditation 💗 https://youtu.be/FKvrJ5JZNxM [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 07:44 AM PST I've been meditating with this. Because I accept each moment and practicing being present, sometimes it feels like to be happy I have to make a choice. The choice would then change my current present moment....so I'm a bit confused. For those who've come out of dark times into the light- was it a choice? Or did it naturally happen [link] [comments] |
| While you are working, studying, gaming, eating, you can meditate. Posted: 27 Jan 2021 05:07 PM PST Your head makes narrative voices. Instead of focusing on these voices, you focus on your breathing. After many months, you will be accustomed to focusing the breathing, and your focus becomes more powerful than before. This will make it possible to do Mind Awareness (observing your mind). If you do not have enough power to do Breathing Awareness, you cannot do Mind Awareness even if you understand the concept of it. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 07:17 AM PST It finally happened, and I can fall into this state within a minute. I've been curious about non-duality and enlightenment for the last year and have adopted many means of exploring this state. Mushrooms, lsd, weed, and meditation. I've had brief glimpses into this on shrooms and lsd but could never find a way to "get there" again. Soon I started meditating regularly for only about 10-20 minutes a day since this past November. Meditation certainly helped my mindfulness but I felt I was hardly getting anywhere when it came to dropping the sense of self. Then last night while in a pit of despair I walked to a shop to buy a weed grinder so I could sink my self into a deeper depression by breaking my clean streak. I got high and started listening to music and I was paying attention so clearly that my sense of self fell away and before getting excited about it I kept snapping out of it to try and "see" again. And again. I ended up writing a few notes to about this and I think an important one is that this isn't really just about relaxing the mind, but also relaxing the body. Doing the waking up app made me so focused on doing some mental thing in my head to try to see, but instead it's really about letting go. Like actually try imagining yourself hanging on the edge of a cliff and deciding this is it, I submit- and just LET everything fall away. [link] [comments] |
| My teeth are vib - Tongue is shaking - what can I doo? Send% Posted: 27 Jan 2021 10:54 PM PST I hope you re going to the same place as me. I feel like a dead soL. Whats one way to stay grounded? [link] [comments] |
| Is it possible to feel the way I did during childhood again? Posted: 27 Jan 2021 04:23 PM PST When I was a kid, I had so much energy to do everything and everything was fun and interesting. Ever since I turned 15 it just out of nowhere went away. For 4 years now everything has been dull. I am tired 24/7 and don't want to do anything. I don't find any joy in the things I used to do or even new hobbies I picked up. I also can't focus on anything anymore. Can meditation bring those good feelings back? Some days this dullness is unbearable and I just want to sleep all day. I don't know what changed in me but I want to feel good again [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 04:10 PM PST Meditation kills my mind chatter, like I completely act on instinct alone without thinking after coming off it. Makes me more "animal", if that is the right way of putting it. I am too calm, and detached that I don't even feel like giving an answer to those who ask me a question. I don't even give a fuck about anything. Whenever I see something, I just process it, acknowledge that it is a separate thing than I, then ignore it. I used to be known as the guy who talks too much, now I don't even fkin care about being alive. It's like god mode. And when I want to be, I'm more wittier, more funnier, more calmer than usual, but I don't care about those things. I ghosted my girlfriend of 3 years, got my friends out of my life because there aren't any point to having them around anymore since I don't have the need to be social anymore and to be frank they were a waste of time. Also I can fake emotions better now when I want to. I just meditate all day and read non fiction books which blow my mind. This effect wears off after 7-8 hours and I start getting back to normal but I meditate again. My question is that if this is the intended behavior? I like it, but is this something that can harm me mentally? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Jan 2021 09:29 PM PST Does anybody have a a body posture problem? I try to keep my spine erect, sit relaxed but as I meditate and go deep after some time I come back to realise that my body is slouched and my head either tilted backward eyes looking up or head band downward. i again sit straight and continue but again this happens. What is the remedy for this? [link] [comments] |
