concentration method help?

5 posts in this topic

Something happened tonight but it's not really an experience but i got something from this. I take Ritalin for adhd but only use it when i can't focus so i got the idea to drink 2  10mg pills to see  if i can meditate and maybe will be able to focus better, which was not the case. After the Ritalin was about to cum down, i was watching something on you tube.

The Ritalin help me to focus so strongly that things around me all most completely disappear and it freak me out a bit. Then i thought to myself i need a practice to help me get that type of concentration and focus when i meditate so the things around me really disappear and then go even deeper like in jhanas.

Anyone know of such an concentration meditation or concentration method to do what the Ritalin done so i can go deeper in meditation.
That could help me gain more experiences.

Anyone want to share a concentration method i could use, please help i want to go deep with my meditations and have experiences??

I use to do the candle flame meditation were you look at a candle but that one causes big pressure in my head. any other concentration methods??

thanks

@Joker_Theory Leo has a vid on concentration meditation, think it's called concentration vs meditation. You basically take any perception, like two fingers touching, or anything else, and focus on that intensely for a very short period (few minutes). And build from there. Check out the vid.

You could invent countless techniques using that basic idea though. Maybe there'll be something you like.
