Relieve yourself of the expectation
that you will either have
a Good meditation
or a Bad meditation
by reminding yourself that
It is not a linear arrival
so much as a
circuitous exploration.
“Stepping off the binary” is a practice that I talk about a lot
in Tea And Cake With Demons -
Trading linear, binary thinking :
Yes / No : Good / Bad : Pass /Fail
for the curiosity of
explorational thinking.
Can you have an experience without rushing to judge it or classify it?
Or make it mean something about you?
What if you lived into the questions without ever needing them to provide you with an answer?
These are instructions for meditation practice.
These are instructions that prepare us for life.
