Thoughts on Meditation

Thoughts on Meditation One becomes a meditator for certain reasons, enlightenment or nirvana…perhaps to understand the mind…but to meditate predisposes the want of a result. Quickly the teacher or the text will suggest giving up all goals, like the Christian dictate to renounce all wealth, this is an inherent contradiction writhe with hypocrisy. One starts to meditate to find truth or knowledge. To become greater in power or harmony. To unlock hidden forces inherent in the physiognomy or soul. Perhaps after long study, sitting with the breath, focusing on this or that, one finds sensations that are pleasant. But to try and repeat or find again these sensations is the same contradiction, a spiritual hypocrisy for a reward in the future. Actively giving up the rewards of meditation is to cease meditating, to renounce the future goals is to discontinue practice. This canondrom becomes pronounced along the path while searching books and teachings, and meditation. It can only lead to an end...

Quitting the Search

And what of the insight, the view, that tells the job it only wants a hobby. And what of the gratitude through comparison and the end of learning. May I quit? I don't wish to learn anymore. I quit. The only solid thing in the sky is this view, and I have tried to sell it time and time again, but everyone is in the market to sell. The price goes down and down. I find it under a rock, a phosphorescent salamander who tells me his tail, "you know I can lose my tail and it grows back, but no one will buy it" ... The frozen earth and the black black soil under the stone, in winter where do you go? Do you find it difficult in the air? Do you prefer the earth? I tell you, the night is frozen for salamanders. They must have gone south, well past the forest and river bank to the city. Can you find a home there? Do they know you? What will you tell them?
