Sit-down meditations are overrated?

3 posts in this topic

Dedicated sit-down meditations can lead to insights, experiences, and concentration power that can transfer over to your daily life. But only to a certain extent.

It seems once you stand up and get back in to ordinary life, the mind gets busier and stays pretty busy.

Do you feel sit-down meditations are being given more emphasis than they deserve, versus turning daily activities into meditation?

Turning daily activities into meditation is a sure way to get your mind to stay busy forever ;) 


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

Very unlikely that you will get deep non-dual states from daily activity meditations alone.

Once you have had many nondual experiences during formal meditation, you can try to get there during daily activities well.
