connda Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 23 hours ago, bignok said: I asked before about meditation retreats but asking again for clarity from those that have done 7 days to 30 days. Does it improve your ability to relax? Disconnect? Zone out or zone in? Does it improve your patience? Improve your ability to not care? Actually it may become one of the most difficult things you've done. I suggest going to a place like Wat Umong Meditation Center (if they still exist) and spending 3 days there to figuratively 'get your feet wet.' If you can handle 3 days there then you may be able to handle 21 days elsewhere like the International Meditation Center at Wat Doi Suthep. Does it improve your ability to relax? Disconnect? Zone out or zone in? Does it improve your patience? Improve your ability to not care? That is quite literally impossible to answer. It may. It may not. But? Meditation is NOT about becoming distracted, or "zoned-out," or apathetic, or relaxed. Meditation IS about investigating the nature of "mind." Watching the process of mind fabricating what you consider to be 'reality.' That process can be relaxing. It can also drag up every fear and anxiety that you've ever had. Which is the point. The point is to watch without getting involved. The meditation technique can take you to a place where you CAN watch without getting involved. That's the essence of Vipassana. Insight into the illusory nature of mind. The only way you will know is to go do it. If you think that 21 days of meditation is going to change your life? It may if you maintain the meditation practice. It is NOT a quick fix. Want a quick fix? Ayahuasca. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a comment aimed at your spelling (which also applies to your post quoted above) combined with a play on words. However, most on here know you are not too bright so it is no surprise it went totally over your head. You went to see Pavoroti did you? You probably think Placido Domingo is the guy who sells pizza. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per the custom, the abbot passed the amulet to an assistant to give to my wife -lest he inadvertently touch a woman.
