What?

Ill try to understand what you are saying... but it doesnt make much sense to me.

There are many who believe that meditation is something that you do constantly. It does not cease. Meaning, what some call "true" meditation does not end. Some "sects" refer to this as being constantly mindful. There is no set time for it, these people would propose that your two hours is just the first step in a lifetime of constant meditation.

Meditation is not just relegated to when you sit cross-legged in introspection.

I know it wasn't specifically meant for me but I began reading it and found it to be very interesting, thank you. Love indian philosophers (I assume he is indian by the name) they always take this type of thoughts very far.

A mind clear of all thought is indeed the true meditation IMO. Nothing to do with visualisation techniques or positions. My life changed almost overnight when I started to realize how automated my thoughts were.

But in order to get a clear mind, one shouldn't tell himself no to think, which is also a thought.
When one feels like thoughts are going freewheel again, he shouldn't be too rude or upset about his lost of consciousness.

In order to stay conscious and loose as much ego as possible, one should keep his attention on his inner voice. This uncontrolled talker is the one each one of us should understand and comprehend.

When you put this unconscious process under the light of consciousness, which is neutral attention, the process fades and stops.

When you catch yourself drivelling about this and that. Don't ask it to stop. Ask it "what else do ou have to say?"

Then miracle, it's silent

Have a good night

I meditate, thus I exist.

Don't meditate for 2 hrs straight, it's dangerous.

When thought has been inquired into and seen for what it is 'meditation' is found to be the natural state.
And then it is 'constant'.

It is found to be the one constant in this world. It is not really 'in' the world, more like out of this world. It is home.

This is Dolano speaking about true meditation.

This is another talk by Dolano about finding the end of the path.

Can one have a meditation where one is not of this world, but also not 'home'?

Until one finds the true meaning of meditation, one will be trapped by the world and never feel at home.

Silence (no thingness) is the natural underlying state behind and prior to thought.

Ok your admiting you dont think when you encounter situations. Im not sure what situations you commonly confront each day but obviously they are events which are condusive to not having to produce thought.

Thoughts arise in the silence.

Thoughts arise.

Your such a contradiction that you have to be a woman. Your mind is tuned to contradictory perfection.

Thinking in most is constant. It is what drives people crazy. Constant analyzing and judgements.

Situations happen and there is no need for thought. Thought is just wording what is already known.

Your a float boat on the sea of contradictory waves. I understand how you percieve. You do realise you are susceptible to tides while floating along that can drag you over a Niagra falls of Maddness.

Please show where you see contradiction.
