RE: Resistance to Meditating? Me Too!

in #meditation-challenge7 years ago (edited)

"We're all just walking each other home..." thanks for reminding me of this marvellous quote, it is humbles me and speaks truth to my heart..

Meditation gives us the space to see our desire to get away from the moment, to always be pursuing something and that, at base, this pursuit takes us away from what is Now.

Yess!! I totally see that, thanks for the reminder!!

wonderful to read about your experiences, I relate to many of them.. especially with getting started, and then it gets easier when we're in the air.. haha!

amazing, meditation can teach us so much! for me this week a great learning is that meditation is like sky-diving or cliff-diving, you have to take the plunge and the mind needs to let go of itself, it's quite scary, but then when it truly surrenders, it's like falling down with an endless waterfall.. or just floating on top of a still lake.. and every thought creates ripples, like little pebbles thrown by a noisy kid.. hehe.. been getting loads of visuals during my meditations recently and it's really cool because before I used to think I'm not a visual person, more of a feeler.. it turns out that my imagery can be quite powerful and carry many meanings!

what mantra do you use?

lots of love @mountainjewel eco-train brother.. <3

aw cool! I especially love this

this post was actually written by me, wren , a lady ;) it can probably be confusing for everyone because we both post to this account and also both comment on everyone's posts!! lol! which one will you get? haha :)

thanks for your great comment! we use the gayatri mantra, which is proving to be very powerful.. yesterday i felt my third eye dazzlingly and poignantly opening! woohoo, these are powerful tools! XO much love! (and yes, love that quote!!)

i also do the gayatri 108 times.. it IS my favourite! i actually sing it slowly at first with this SHruti app on the key of D and then speed up as I go... Its something SO powerful that the effects last ALL day an are REALLY noticeable in every way.. I will of course journal this soon!

YES going to try this!! <3

oh, so nice to connect with you Wren! I read about you in a previous post and saw your lovely face. Beautiful that you guys share the same account. You have a very strong bond, I appreciate your love and togetherness. I love the gayatri mantra, it was actually the very first mantra I ever learnt. We have a lot in common, guys!
