What to Expect and Do After a Mindfulness Retreat ~ Shinzen Young

[@kir395]

Just returned from a 10 day retreat with an aftershock. This talk turned the whole internal experience a clean 180 degrees around. Thanks Shinzen

Very nice advice, it is also more valuable in general. In regards to the last remark, that everyone is a teacher (how to do things, or how not to do things). I would say that it is simply the other side of the coin of everyone being a student, as in adopting a student mindset.

Hello mr Young, I heard your audiobook the science of enlightenment a while ago and it helped me in such a great level. Although meditation was the reason I turned my life around, after about a year it started to imprison me due to mistakes and misconceptions I had from some books. Due to your audiobook I got released from all these misconceptions and I am starting to balance again. Anyway I will try not to ramble and I just want to express my appreciation for what you do and thank you. Also I would like to ask if you are planning on making a paperback version of the book. I would love to have a physical version of this gem in my library. Much appreciation and respect, Anthony

Great stuff, i love your videos! i was wondering..I'm at a place now where i can reach deep peace through meditating...but. .whenever i go to completely surrender and let go i get scared and can't completely let go. Is this normal? Any advice?

Today I envisioned an aspect of infinity. The basis of this vision was of beginning and end being illusory as separate. I also had another vision that articulated HOW we live in separate realities yet coexist. Recently I've come to realizing duality and karma are intimately related. Also the massive spiritual ups and downs since my "kundalini" awakening have pretty well leveled off. I'm still having a little bit of trouble with something. I've been in contact with an entity since before my awakening and it first revealed itself to me when I intended demonic contact. Since then it has immersed into my reality as many different things. It has been a Christian demon. It has been an angel. It has been my lover. And it has been me. This entity has shown me that it has been with me since at least the most difficult part of my life. Is it me? Is it a spiritual guide? Is it that time i hit my head? Is it the pizza I ate? Haha. Seriously. What do you think it is? Be straight, homie. I've got connections (to the center.) (Jokes jokes, but a lil serious.)
