A Meditation on Meditation
Have you ever had an instance when you are so involved in what you are doing, so busy, so distracted that you don't realise that you've been cut and are bleeding? Perhaps you were on a jog and only when you stop to rest, do you feel a slight pain. Maybe the pain doesn't even come until you just happen to glance down and see that, sure enough, you're bleeding.
Meditation can be like this moment of realization. It can be a moment when you listen to your physical body and your emotional state as well.
And sometimes it hurts. And you're like "OMG I am effing bleeding!" Maybe a little bit of panic sinks in.
When this realization comes, even though it may involve some pain and even panic, it is ultimately good. With this realization you may now tend to your wound and wash it clean. Don't be scared to have these moments. Now you can heal.
