Went to my 1st meditiation session tonight. Crazy enough, it was done by one of my grade school teachers Mr. Z. I've been more open than I've ever been than any given point in my life. Me, Myfriends Laree & Cole, and 2 older women sat down with him and served tea and talked about things. Then we watched a tape of a Tibeten priest tell about letting our mind clear. Having a sense of "spaciousness" is in order for you to react clearly. Mr. Z told me to the best of his ability that meditation is not sitting with your eyes closed and thinking about your past and what you have todo tomorrow. Sense your surroundings and bring them in. Sit up in such a posture that you as you are royality. be proud. feel the warmth of your hands on your knees. feel the cool air if the ceiling fan. we also did a walking meditation. he said feel the smooth surface of the kitchen tile and the rough carpet. it almost felt as if I were gliding. I felt an almost apparent aura that I felt from everyone in that room....that mine was interlinked to everyone in a way. I can't explain it...I just know that it has expanded my mind in a way that I want to know more.
