Tips for Regular Meditation Practice

  • It's important to practice meditation regularly, but consistency is key.
  • The analogy of an old cow peeing suggests that meditation should be done bit by bit, not all at once.
  • Building a habit of daily practice is important, and there are two ways to do it: formal and informal practice.
  • Formal practice involves setting aside a specific amount of time each day for meditation.
  • Informal practice can be done anytime, anywhere, and involves being mindful in everyday activities.
  • High expectations for meditation can lead to attachment and grasping, which can hinder progress.
  • Instead of expecting fantastic results, focus on doing your best and using effort, wisdom, and knowledge.
  • Accept that meditation experiences are impermanent and may go up and down in the beginning.
  • Progress may not be noticeable day to day, but looking back over a longer period can reveal improvements.
  • Don't fixate on experience or becoming enlightened quickly; progress comes step by step.
  • Avoid tightness or looseness in your approach to meditation; find balance by trying your best without being attached to the result.
  • Regular, consistent practice is essential for developing inner experience and realization of meditation.
