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.

Meditation is an unlearning


When we seek 'things' we are simply filling up the precious space in our lives; the space where true comfort abides.  More roller-skates, more food, better relationships, more talent, and more wisdom  … these 'things' only reduce the possibility of true happiness right here right now.

Meditation is the search for space, peace, freedom.  Lasting happiness can only be found by letting go of 'things'.  Meditation is letting go, unlearning, and a falling into helplessness.

Empty yourself utterly … even let go of the "I-thought".  

become helpless,
