CHECK OUT OTHER RINPOCHE POST ON SOUND MEDITATION

[@weiyitian3952]

I remember he mentioned this in his teaching (I was in that session and someone asked the same question), he said listening to music is a little bit different to listening to sound. He would not recommend that. My own understanding is that music brings you memories or some feelings and for beginners, it might not be a good way to cultivate your pure awareness. You could easily get lost in thoughts and beautiful imaginations when listening to those peaceful meditating music.

[@hellboundtruck123]

Music is sensorial pleasure, hence can become a hindrance in proper meditation of innate goodness or awareness, music or poems if created as homage to a guru or Buddha could be considered as guru yoga, like poems and songs from Milarepa, but that is too advanced. Music can help improve single pointed meditation, concentration, but nonetheless a distraction. I couldn’t grasp the idea at the beginning because I myself was a musician, after years of understanding and contemplation, I can make sense of it as sensorial pleasure but it can be turned into meditation when we cultivate the intention of benefiting others through it.

HUMAN GREED NEVER ENOUGH

[@ladakhthroughages.6286]

Because your happiness is important for happiness and peacefulness of others. If you are happy, you generally tend to through your happiness on others and you are always potential of making people around you happy. If you are angry for example. You are not miserable only but you throw your misery on others around and you are potential of making others miserable. Therefore, you wish to be happy for the happiness of others. That is compassion.

Please, is AWARENESS an acceptance of denials or the opposite of denial

[@hellboundtruck123]

Being aware means being aware of interdependence of all things, there’s no denial or acceptance as both are relative. If you accept you’re in denial you are aware that you were in denial, if you do not accept you’re in denial then you are aware that you’re not in denial, awareness is always there, wether you accept or deny, that fact that you’re even able to differentiate is awareness, as Mingyur Rinpochhe always says “thoughts are like clouds, awareness in like sky”.
