Meditators Can Be Creepy
Meditation isn’t sitting in a vacant state.
Meditation is work, observing distractions and letting go.
Then, life is play.
When meditation works, life is a generous interaction.
If we dwell in a vacant state, we become creepy.
Why is a vacant state creepy?
Because we lose our sense of humanity.
🙂
When meditating properly, we are accessible, and never aloof. If we become aloof … unfriendly … unforthcoming … cool … distant … somewhat austere … conspicuously uninvolved … we’ve got it wrong!
Going, gone, gone, gone beyond is only an internal affair.
We judge what we see. I’ve heard people say, “Meditation makes you a zombie” and “Meditators sit up a pole, detached from life”. I’ve met some who claim to ‘meditate’ but who are offhand, unapproachable and standoffish. This is the reason that I write this blog – so as not to follow the creepy-crawlies 😀 😀 😀
Meditation is work.
Everything else is playing nicely.
