Meditation

Index of Articles:

Basics of meditation: Below are several introductory articles on meditation. It is very useful to have a personal reason for meditation, as well as a regular time and place.

Expanding meditation: Building on the Basics of meditation, one expands those practices gently and patiently over time.

Witnessing: Seated meditation and meditation in action are both times for witnessing the external and internal worlds.

More advanced practices: The phrase advanced practices is not one I enjoy using, as all people are walking this path of life. The fact that one person might be on the bow of the ship and the other on the stern should not matter very much. However, advanced is a word we are all accustomed to seeing, so that is what is used here. After one learns the basics of meditation, and adds a few more complementary practices along the way, there comes a time when the subtler practices are of interest. The articles below describe some of the further practices.
