Meditation is a thing that you do with your attention. When you pay attention or concentrate or get distracted, that’s you doing a thing with your attention. And that’s obviously important stuff in your life and the world. Meditation takes it further.
We basically have 2 kinds of meditation.
-
Concentration meditation, which is plain ol concentration taken to a higher level.
-
Zen meditation (aka shikantaza), which is another thing to do with your attention, kindof a left turn from concentration and is a bit esoteric.
So there you go.


I am also a big David Lynch fan :)
I have not done TM in any serious way. I basically fumbled around and experimented until it made sense to me. Forging my own path and such.
I did go to a TM thing once a long time ago. They were nice people.
As for pushing positive social waves into the surrounding community, yes, I have some small experience with that. It’s a thing I study and experiment with some.
Thanks, all the best to you.
