010. šŸ¤« TRYING TO FIND THAT SILENCE šŸ¤«: meditation isn't ceasing mental activity

šŸŽ¬ today we will talk about how important it is to meditate if you want to better understand your mind āœØšŸ’™ Our mind talks so much. There are so many words, so many thoughts, all the time! We have huge dialogs going through our minds many times. However, we can go through all of this stuff and go deep. Go to a place where you havenā€™t gone before, or havenā€™t visited in a while.

There are people out there saying that meditation is to cease the mental activity. That is not exactly it. If you cease mental activity girl, you have had a brain death. Meditation is not death. It is LIFE.


Our mind talks so much. There are so many words, so many thoughts, all the time! We have huge dialogs going through our minds many times. However, we can go through all of this stuff and go deep. Go to a place where you havenā€™t gone before, or havenā€™t visited in a while.


Itā€™s like going to the sea. First you learn how to swim, go through the waves, have fun. And you can also learn how to dive. And when you go in the depths of the sea/mind you will encounter particular sounds. These are sounds that are quieter. There arenā€™t any colours there, because there arenā€™t any more lights.


When you are in the depths of your mind, itā€™s almost like there is no sound. Thatā€™s how you start training deeper meditation practices. First you notice all the talk and dialogs your mind is having. Then, you continue to practice and trying to go deeper. You start going deeper. Youā€™ll encounter other thoughts, other impulses. But they are so subtle that youā€™re gonna start saying that you were able to shut your mind up.


However, you didnā€™t shut your mind up. Your mind has always been silent. You were just able to access deeper levels of your own mind.
