To continue this morning's train of thought in the context of meditation, perhaps a style of meditation that involves trying to move from "What is" to "What should be" (whether that "should be" is coming back to the mantra or achieving transcendence) is, in Buddhist terms, indulging and thus perpetuating the desire/aversion cycle and taking the actor further away from immersion in "What is." Whereas a technique of meditation that involves nothing more than paying attention to "What is" or even a concentrated focus *on* "What is" is facilitating immersion in "What is." ------------------------ Yahoo!
