LOL, looks like we’re going to be arguing over everyone's personal definition of "technique" for a while now. 😁

Anyway, I’ve said my piece... if you get it, you get it.

Later! 👋

i "doing absolutely nothing" is a legitimate strategy. 😁

Austin Hayes66 said:Technique is just an intellectual exercise. You don't need "mind" during meditation. 😉

Look, even in your last few posts, you're basically just describing various techniques.
You could find all this stuff in any standard textbook. 😁
If reading books were enough, Nicole would have figured this out ages ago.

Joseph Ortiz26 said:So what actually is meditation? What is a person even doing when they meditate?

Meditation is basically about settling down and letting all that mental chatter die out. You aren't "doing" anything.

If you want to master the technique, you really need a teacher.

Honestly, I don't think books or random info on forums are going to help you much with this, aside from maybe some tiny details.

If I can get in for free, I’m there. But if not? No way am I dropping that kind of cash on them... I'd much rather just go buy myself a new pair of Nikes... 😁

Joseph Ortiz26 said:It’s so easy to slip into it—it feels just like falling asleep. You think you're hitting this deep level of focus, but really, you've just drifted off into a trance.

I think you might be mixing up meditation with pure concentration. 😉 What you're describing—that intense focus—can actually trigger a meditative state (what you called a trance) simply because the brain gets exhausted and just slides right into it. But isn't that exactly what we're aiming for when we stare at a single point or a candle flame?
As long as you're mentally active and pushing that focus, you aren't actually meditating yet.

Think about it—you can't exactly get an orange revolution off the ground if you aren't even on the move.

do you have any idea which THREAD I was talking about?

maybe THAT 😘 :-o

Of course it’s better

You're wicked, and I'm wicked too—we're both bad actors (there's definitely a connection there)

Betty Hall said:Oh, you're being such a troublemaker
:-(

A troublemaker? Go check my profile...

Oh, for sure! Are you talking about headphone cables—like USB or a standard 3.5mm jack?

I’ve got this random wire hanging down here and I have no clue where it's supposed to plug in...
