Meditation involves a completely different approach from the way most of us live our lives.

As my Ishaya teacher used to tell me, “You won’t master Ascension meditation, it’ll master you”.

Success here really is receptive, not creative. You don’t do meditation, you allow it to do you.

To say it another way, meditation is allowing it to give you what you need, not what you expect.

It’s where you patiently brought yourself back, even just once. Where you stopped trying, straining or controlling. Where you gave up trying to get somewhere and just arrived to where you are. Where you lasted the distance, you didn’t give up because it didn’t seem to be working the way you thought it should.

We get so focussed on the measurables in life – profit, weight loss, bank account, how many, how few …

But attributes such as patience, wisdom, compassion, courage, love are very difficult to measure.

Yet maybe they’re as important, if not more so, than what you can measure.

So consider that, change your expectations in meditation.

And if you need to, measure success on the kind of person you can be after, in life, not what happens during.

That’ll help you relax into the process and get a worthy habit going.

Also remember!

Not all meditation techniques and tools are created equal. They’re vehicles, and just like your car, there are great vehicles and poor ones.
