Bluff

but, as concentration is as it is, it's not unhealthy nor does it necessarily cause issues as you said. good night folks

@Jack River you really don't have to teach me this stuff just wanted to tell you, that @FredFred is working with the concept of concentration. Perhaps just like Leo tought him.. And claiming that concentration is all bad won't help.

It is a tool for newbies trying to focus. Learning to meditate. The guy who posted this topic is working with concentration and this helped him to "be the breath". Sounds like a great start for a beginner. So stop telling concentration is unhealthy! They will at one point see that no concentrarion is needed for seeing.

I dont get your point. True Awareness, not caught in any tricks, isnt always there?!

I dont agree. Concentration is a powerfull tool. It CAN cause issues, if you cannot let go, when its time.

totally normal. just resently I had to lie down all day long with headache. Really.. I just slept the entire day the reason for this was a meditiation the day before

there is no transition. awareness is always there. concentration in the end is destraction and you'll laugh when you'll see edit: dont get me wrong.. concentration is importend

After 5 years of meditation, I still have these periods of time where meditation doesnt work as I want it to. You have to know that there is lots of stuff going on inside of you uncounsciously. This is absolutely fine and required for progress. Mind is learning. What I do when I dont get really deep into meditative state, I practice calming my Mind and have no thought. Also I'm trying to sense my Body, do some chakra- balancing/ opening. Cause remember - Body, Mind and Spirit are all going down this path - together. keep skyrocketing! EDIT: try quitting all techniques, be your own guru. Only you can see what is hindering you from getting the best results of your meditation. trying out techniques is like finding the right key out of hundrets for just one lock. check out the lock, and you'll see what the right key must look like. _________________________________________________________ there is always a chance of my post being pure bullshit

Hey there, once in meditation I got to the point where my brain stood under enormous vibration. These vibrations where going from my left to right brain. And the other way. Maybe not going from anywhere to nowhere, but just being a resonance (hard to tell (and no need to know at this point)) Not only my brain but my hole body felt this balance. I never sensed a feeling of inner balance like this before and again. Just right now I'm thinking that this is something I maybe need to reproduce going on on my enlightenment journey, because I feel the need of embodying my spirituality. Meaning grounding, balancing and open chakras. Is my experience an often consequence of practicing meditation? What exactly is going on in these moments and how to reproduce them? And in generel, what can you tell about the left/ right brain (body) relation, balancing and embodying? I go now an look for the answers by myself. Hoping for some insides when I come back here. thanks
