Practice Notes ✨ Stepping off the Binary

IMG_1695.JPG

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.
