Content Means Nothing
An occasional place for peace, provocation, balance and contradiction. I practice meditation and as part of the practice, reflect on the meditation as it ends. Share your thoughts with me, hopefully over time we will move from ignorance to insight.

Ego clinging, loosening the grip
I have been tense in my upper back, my neck, as if there is compression which would enjoy release, it has seen my body contort itself during the recent meditations and interrupt stillnes.
Today I found toward the end of the meditation I thought a current hindrance is that I am still doing meditation for personal glory: that it may lead me to a place where I am good to others which will reflect well on me.
Hiwever, I feel also that this is not quite true, as if I am good to others that will be enough for me, but my ego clings on, wanting praise, wanting reward. It is lessening, but there.
There are enough glimpses in meditation of peace to draw me on, to the love of all life, where I share stillness and insight.

Meditation Reflection - 30 Oct 14

The Waterfall
and assaulted by the sound of people
who aren't captured
by the sound of the waterfall,
who are speaking words
as if they had as much meaning
as the endless shushing
of the waterfall.
gradually become silent,
still, for a moment,
understand at some level
that there is something beyond
the noise of their own lives,
then forget
that such peace as there is to find
in this world
is only found by disappearing
