Meditation

[morbidoutlook]

Buddhism is an interesting belief system, some call it a religion, others a philosophy and some just see it as a sprituality. One of it's core beliefs concentrait on meditation. You just sit there and do nothing. Well not nothing. You observe your thoughts and you learn things about the universe throught silence

I've found that repeating the same word over in your mind works well in meditation.

That does help a lot, it cuts back a lot on mind wandering. I like chanting too, since I can focus on the words.

There was also one of visualizing of being next to a quiet pond at night in the middle of nature. I haven't done that in a while though.

I've haven't done that yet, but I did try to hold the image of a cube in my head...
