For years - no, decades - I approached meditation in a way that prevented me from experiencing its true essence. I was trying to meditate. I was looking for the right way. I wanted the best process. I missed the point.
Recently, I found a copy of "Meditations" by Jiddu Krishnamurti. It is a collection of Krishnamurti's ideas - from writings and talks - about meditation. I have found his perspective to be gentle yet powerful. And, finally, I feel like someone is pointing to what meditation really is and how to meditate.
In this episode, I talk about three short passages from the book and relate them to my experience, that of my clients, and provide some grist for you own mill.
Thank you for listening, and be well.
