Ok, so I had a crazy experience meditating…?

admin — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 04:52:54 +0000

…I was trying to meditate, something I would like to do more often but don’t really get round to that much. But for the last couple of days I had been meditating for, say, 10 mins a day. Then the other day I was sitting, letting thoughts pass through my mind, and voices sort of… jumped out so I could hear them clearly as though they were talking in my head. I could understand them at the time, but when I stopped meditating, I couldn’t remember what they were saying. In the end, I had been meditating for about 20 minutes.

Now I just want to know, do you think these voices were a product of my meditation, or rather just snippets of conversations that I had had that day that were floating around my brain?

A smorgasbord of beliefs: what do you believe in?

admin — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 19:23:20 +0000

Which of the following would you agree with and/or believe in?

Religion and Higher Powers
•I believe in some form of Christianity
•I believe in some form of Judaism
•I believe in some form of Islam
•I believe in some form of Buddhism
•I believe in some form of Hinduism
•I believe in some form of any religion in general
•I believe in a deity or deities

Creatures
•There are ghosts, spirits, and/or some other form of interactive dead people in the world that exist but are elusive to detection
•Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and/or other forms of individual legendary monsters exist but are elusive to detection

Practices
•Acupuncture and/or chiropractics are subtle but legitimate medical techniques that are capable of treating pain, diseases, and other things not directly related to puncture or musculoskeletal anatomy in ways that are difficult to verify
•A person’s birth date or birth sign (e.g. Sagittarius, Virgo) has broad implications and can impact their personality, can be used to predict their future, or has other extraordinary applications
•‘Natural’ products are inherently healthier or better than synthetic products (e.g. organic food is healthier than genetically-engineered food, ‘alternative’ medicine is better than pharmaceutical medicine, organic pesticides are healthier than synthetic pesticides, etc.).
•Asian (particularly southeast Asian) mysticism adds some form of concrete quality to certain practices or rituals (e.g. meditation is superior to other forms of relaxation, yoga is better than ordinary stretching, feng shui is better than other forms of interior decorating, various southeast Asian martial arts are capable of supernatural or superhuman effectiveness not available to hand-to-hand combat techniques from other pasts of the world, etc.).

I am looking for a book that is about Buddhism for the modern woman. Any ideas?

admin — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 07:14:16 +0000

The book is very thin and funny and quirky. There are tips on dating, work and meditation. The cover is green with a cartoon picture of a girl in a purple yoga outfit. I can’t remember the name. PLEASE HELP!
Dear Zen Master:
Because you were so nice as to provide such a helpful reply I thought I’d give you some insight. I’m a devout Christian, have been saved and invited Jesus into my heart a few years ago. I feel that Buddhism is more a way of life than a religion (just for me). To judge someone on their religion is not what God teaches. We’re to be kind and understanding to all, it’s not our place to judge, nor do I judge you. But I thought I’d share a little bit of background for you. Thanks again.
