I told her what happened during my meditation.

She said that those things happen sometimes (often) when people try to do this by them selves. (I have been trying this for years off and on??)

People in the East who have done this their whole lives can do this. The rest of us need a guided meditation.

She said to think about my breathing with my eyes open and for short periods of time.
We both decided that maybe I could do this for 5 mins at a time three times a day and then try to get into see her before Dec 17 when she goes out of town.

Perhaps I should do chanting that some Buddhists taught me. Maybe I am more suited to that.


I am lost. BUt I am less frightened now that she spoke to me.
