After returning home, I wanted to continue meditation sessions with others so, I began an open door meditation gathering on Thursday evenings here on the kibbutz.


So far about 5 people come to do meditation: reclining, sitting and practicing metta - lovingkindness.


If anyone's interested in how it's going, I'm writing about it on my blog

best to you

When I lived in the desert I did much of no thinking and the quiet of mind, very profound once you get there but it's always there or nowhere for that matter. zen, bliss, rapture, illumination or self exploration w/o past influence. kinda funny how such a subjective experience can be shared and relate to. peace pan
