RE: QOTW:MEDITATION

in ecoTrain3 years ago

Meditation is a state of mind, not just in the posture that looks like meditation.

As a Chinese man, our culture, in fact the whole of the Ancient Eastern cultures, are centered around the meditative state of mind...that is to say...STILLNESS.

The Western cultures, especially the modern Western Cultures, is all centered around STIMULATION. By artificial means (via technology, drugs, social interactions) the appearance and benefits of meditation have been created...but this is not the real thing.

Meditation is a state of mind. One can be in a busy market and practice the meditation via the teachings and principles of something called Kshanti paramita. Meditation you must remember is stillness; stillness is the precursor to Chan/Zen, which is the mind and experience of the Buddha, which all of us have the capability to tap into.
