Hi all

I practice inner silence meditation. I try as much as possible to quiet my mind and be free of any thoughts. Everyday, i try to increase the duration. What about you. what type do you do.

To be honest i have tried allot of different meditations. From mantra, mindfulness to body scan meditation and to me they are all good. I just get bored quickly and go on to the next which is not good.

I am doing an om mantra meditation at the moment.

I used to do mantra meditation but i found it just creates more distraction. I like to enjoy the silence. If you get bored easily, have you tried listening to calm beautiful music while you meditate.

I do one where I make the chakra points go counter clockwise. I like how it mesmerizes me

Let what comes come and let what goes go.

I took instruction in Transcendental Mediation in 1974, and I've continued the practice ever since. Over time, experiences have gotten deeper, more blissful. Over the years, I have also done a number of other practices, but meditation remains the core practice.

Transcendental Mediation always interested me but cant pay that much for a mantra.

Is it true the mantra is super strong? I hear these days they give you a mantra based on your age. Any truth to that?

* 10 slow deep breaths - drawing in subtle energy, exhaling it ad the energy up the spine and out the crown. Focusing only on the breaths.

* Drop into mental silence, not finishing any thoughts that start.

* Wait silently for the color to begin to develop - no thinking.

* watch the color fields morph and change - if tunnels appear take them - if not stay in color fields until the feeling comes to end the meditation - usually bladder has the say so. lol

* if tunnels appeared take them and move consciousness out into the Universe and whatever it might hold for that day.

WOW very advance and hopefully i will get there some day.

That is the experience i am looking for to hear and wow me. To just get me motivated to do it everyday and know it worth it in the long run.

Just one question: * Drop into mental silence, not finishing any thoughts that start. So when a thought comes up you let it finish by itself or do you stop it in the middle of the thought?

Also drop into silence, does it just happens on its own?
thanks
