What is meditation ? Meditation is about training the mind, and not necessarily quieting the mind. When we meditate, we connect with our minds and reach places that we haven’t reached before. We have thoughts wondering around, we see fantasies reaching us, we see memories, we see a lot of “noise”, the idea is not to get rid of it, it doesn’t matter if it’s positive or negative. #1 The idea is to navigate through those thoughts, understand them – are they good or bad for me? – so that we can reach a new value, moral, or perspective of the thought in question.
