So as not to hijack Matt's thread, I'm posting here.
How many of you meditate? What is your routine? How often do you meditate? What do you think about? Do you envision yourself accomplishing difficult tasks, perfecting techniques, etc? Or do you just try to clear your mind and *think of nothing*?
Matt reached a sense of *enlightenment*, has anyone else experienced this? He also meditated for 2 hours and continued to intentionally carry a mind-set throughout his day.
I admire his achievement. I have a hard time seeing myself meditating for 2 hours though. I can't see it for 30 minutes! lol I feel my mind would start wandering, I'd either get restless, or so restful it would turn into a nap. Yet, I would like to reap the benefits of successful meditation. I've never really tried it before, never really thought about trying it until reading Matt's post. I'm not even sure where to start.
What are your thoughts and experiences with this practice? What personal benefits have you experienced through the practice of meditation?
