Hello, I'm Taehwan. Please understand the translated version. Have you meditated before? Yes, I'm sure you have. Because spacing out is also a meditation. It's not every day, but I meditate (it's been less than half a year). I do it after I sleep or before I sleep, but if I do it before I sleep...

I am reading Autobiography of a Yogi. I'd love to get some feedback about the book. The author talks about miracles all throughout the book. It sounds like a scam to me. I get offended, irritated, while listening to it. I have posted something in another thread talking about the Self...

Hello! I am new here and am grateful to be a part of this community. I started meditating couple of years ago to calm my mind. In the beginning I used to forcibly push away my thoughts because my view on meditation was that of being in a state of bliss. As time went on I came to the realization...

I've tried meditation several times and never got much out of it. Most recently, I read Andy Puddicombe's book and used his Headspace app for over a month, but I didn't notice one iota of difference in my life with anything. It just felt like a waste of time and usually wasn't very pleasant...

Dear fellow entrepreneurs, With the increase of mindfulness and meditation in our society I think most of us are starting to see the benefits of meditation. Scientifically there's a huge amount of benefits that are ascribed to meditation and I remember hearing Gary Vee say that meditation will...

Hedge fund billionaire Ray Dalio: Meditation is ‘the single most important reason' for my success While that's a lofty, seemingly hyperbolic claim... he's right. If you'd like the science behind why, I would be happy to provide it. It changes the brain in way that improves certain skills...

Hey All Just got back from a 10-day Vipassana retreat last week. If anyone is looking for an effective meditation technique, I would strongly suggest Vipassana. It's not for people just looking to try something though. And it's not feel-good meditation. You will experience pain. It's an...

@SinisterLex Thank you for all your insights thus far, it's an eye-opener watching you deconstruct guru tactics. In kind of the same vein, I was wondering if you may have any thoughts on or experiences with Transcendental Meditation? There's a lot of conflicting research, info, and criticism out...
