What do you think of meditation?
Please describe how you meditate, if you meditate.

I think about it. I think I should do it. I thin that thinking about doing it defeats the purpose. Although discipline is required. I think oh I can't even sit up that long without pain.... I actually have sat with a group of Buddhists and tried. My mind was galloping in a million directions.

Der Buddha sagte "Wie Regen in ein Haus ohne Dach fällt, befallen Wünsche und Sehnsüchte den Geist, der keine Meditation praktiziert." Ich habe es versucht aber bin dafür noch nicht bereit. In der Meditation lauscht oder beobachtet in Stille und Dunkelheit (Augen zu) seine Gedanken und Gefühle. Sitzend oder liegend.

The only form of meditation I've ever found useful was to lie in bed and let whatever thoughts come up that want to come up and let them have their influence without having a controlled train of thought for a while.
