zenyatta liked your post. ##s


Congratulations! It is always good to see someone making the most of the opportunities available here. :)

I spent the morning in meditation, as it happens. One must not allow the seeming insignificance of one's achievements diminish their value.

Thank you! You gotta make a living somehow, right?
It helps everything is so similar to where I'm from.. Adjusting was pretty easy! Lol

I've always wanted to try mediating but I know nooothing about it
Any tips for a beginner?

Then our worlds are not so different- although I have certainly never seen space travel on such an impressive scale before. It is truly eye-opening!

My advice would be to avoid expectation. Do not focus on what you would like to get out of it; rather, give yourself to the time you spend meditating with an open heart, and allow yourself to be led. Make sure you are comfortable, and begin in short bursts: five or ten minutes in the morning, perhaps.

Goddd, same! All this feels like it's out of a movie or something!!
Except all the suits are sexier. Way sexier than they should be for space exploration

Okay so, please don't think I'm dumb for asking these questions.. They come from a good place, I promise!
1. Is morning subjective?? Does it HAVE to be in the am?
2. What am I being led by exactly? Like.. a light or? And can I play music?
3. Is there a WRONG way to meditate?

I must admit, I had not noticed...

But, more to the point! You are most certainly not dumb. These are excellent questions.
1. Morning can mean whenever you get up to face the majority of your day, whether it is at 6AM or 6PM.
2a. I cannot put it concisely into words. It is more like a feeling of falling away, little by little- you may not even be aware of it happening.
2b. Playing music quietly may help keep your mind from wandering too far.
3. I do not believe so, no. We all have our own methods.

alright.. everything you said pretty much makes sense and answers most of my questions
the only one I have left is: so what if I dont feel that feeling you described while trying to meditate? like ever? what do i do then?

I believe that we are all capable of experiencing that sensation to some extent! But if your desire to reach such a state is driving you to distraction, there is no shame in setting meditation aside for the time being and returning to it another time.
