A good way to think about meditation is that it is the practice of being comfortable with whatever life presents in each moment.
This practice leads us to recognize that we are the drop not the ocean … then real freedom dawns.

Discussion of spiritual practices: awakening, meditation, and the freedom that cannot be lost or found. All perspectives are welcome; advaita, christian, buddhist, islam or even no perspective at all. Just pointing to that which is nearest and dearest.

Sitting in silence and just noticing what is presenting itself should be the easiest thing in the world … but, for many of us, 'just being' is a challenge. Why is this? What are you trying to avoid?
Answering these questions is the purpose of meditation practice. Establish a regular practice and discover the cause of your discontent.
peace on you,
