i practice what i think is called samadhi meditation, or also known as jhana i think

my main focus is developing concentration, it has taken me alot of practice, but holding a completely empty mind and drifting through the jhana's is just great, one of my favourite things to do! :D

I highly recommend you to read "Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha" by Daniel Ingram.

You can either buy it as a hard copy or download for free as a .pdf here - http://www.interactivebuddha.com/mctb.shtml

Highly enlightening book.

if you want no mind meditation!!!! if ully reccomend any of OSHO ACTIVE MEDITATIONS,specially dynamic meditation.you will go through intense physical activity,,and this will make the mind more accesible.(and quiet)

its the meditation for the humans of this century!!!!!

actually meditation is not visualization,,mantras,,focusing,,thinking .Its beyond all that its NO_MIND

yo want acces meditation through any techniques,,just by reaxing totally it can happen

good luck

To me, "practice" and "meditation" are synonymous... because if I'm doing it in a meditative state, then it's doing what it's supposed to do as a practice!

My main practices right now are:

1. EFT (meditating on emotions, clearing them with meridian stimulation)

2. Kundalini yoga. There are hundreds of structured meditations to choose from from this tradition, most involving chanting mantras and holding a mudra for 11 minutes. These are super powerful and have changed my life!

3. Tian Gong style of Qi Gong. Meditative slow prayerful movement.

4. Microcosmic Orbit. Breathing up the back channel in the spine, breathing down the front. I'm new to this and need guidance, so if anyone here is experienced, let me know!

Vipassana meditation has always been less efficient for me in terms of recalibrating... maybe because I have not practiced much on my own outside of retreats, so when I start, my mind ends up just wandering. Start me on a mantra though, and I'm moving energy right away...
