It has changed my life to some degree- very clearly and significantly. Yet, I read only one chapter and following the advice and instruction to the letter for almost a month. I am feeling the deep joy from meditating just ten minutes. I know I am not supposed to get attached to this deep bliss feeling, but it validates my efforts. I read the first chapter a few months back, but did not really start following it until I started reading W. Rahula's What the Buddha Taught and Bhante Gunaratana's Mindfulness in Plain English. I am deeply attracted to the Theravada Buddhism philosophy. And there is no place of blind faith in it. So, my serious attempt to meditation started after I learned more about Buddha and his way. I had to try it. I much more calm and composed. With better concentration and more self-control. Procrastination has left me. And I have insights much easier than before. I am an overally better thinker, now. And I give the credit to meditation. |
