RE: What Is Meditation by Bhante Gunarantana

in #health7 years ago

Meditation is not easy. It takes time and it takes energy. It also takes grit, determination, and discipline. It requires a host of personal qualities that we normally regard as unpleasant and like to avoid whenever possible. We can sum up all of these qualities in the American word gumption.Its really good for health. Nice post thanks for share.

Yeah, I did lots of 10 day retreats at Goenka's centers for many years. I was able to work with him several times and his advice was so helpful. We meditated from 4am to 9pm for an hour to 3 hours at a time with breakfast and lunch breaks.

I miss retreat work, I haven't been to a retreat for about 5 years, I am looking forward to checking out Bhante G's center.
