I mean, it's fun -- if that's what you're into! But you're looking for some kind of anchor or guide. And you're chucking your anchor into quick sand. If you really want " out " , you need to find what wants out, where it's located if it's there, etc. etc. Warm wishes, Joe PS: Also, don't kid yourself that you don't need to meditate... finding out what you are, if you are, etc requires a very determined, clear, and intelligent mind. Sitting on the couch with a bag of chips won't help much. :-) Niz recommends meditation over and over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
