10 reasons why I MEDITATE
REASON 5: LEARNING TO FAIL IS SUCCESS

When I tell people that I teach meditation, often their response is, “I could never meditate, my mind is too chaotic…” 🤪

***NEWSFLASH*** We all have a busy mind! Yes, we ALL do. You are not alone in that experience! The difference between a meditator and someone who won’t give it a try is simply this; how do they face FAILURE?

In one sitting of meditation, perhaps you “mess-up” 100 times. You realise, “Oh s***! I lost the meditation, I was thinking about breakfast 🤔…”

THAT MOMENT, the moment when you messed up.. again 🙄… is where the juice is! Many of us feel irritated at ourselves. There is this voice that says, “Why can’t I just stay focused? I’m useless, I’ll never get this!” We allow that voice to defeat us...

Learning to meditate means facing that voice over and over and over again. You learn to trade irritation and self-flagellation for MAITRI or Loving-Kindness. Absolute compassion is the only weapon against that punishing voice in your head.

I meditate because it teaches me to look failure in the eye, smile and pick myself up and try again, and again, and again…

10 reasons why I MEDITATE
REASON 4 ~THE CAGE IS IMAGINARY

Cultivating a daily practice (Sadhana) has been a long and obstacle-filled journey for me. Along the way I realised something about discipline. It goes like this;

Society imposes an imaginary necessity of busy-ness. So we adopt the belief that if we are not producing something, we aren’t worthy.

If you take a time-out from go,go,go to just BE, inevitably this little voice of sabotage in your mind begins listing all the reasons why you do not deserve this time-out. It says that you should be doing something “more productive and useful”. “In any case”, the voice says, “you’ll never be any good at this meditation thing anyway”…

The sabotage manifests as endless EXCUSES to skip your Sadhana practice. When you feel good and strong, you practice. But then sometimes you think, ‘I just don’t feel like it’ and you skip practice.

The twisted IRONY of it all is this; you think that you are exerting your free will by permitting yourself to be flakey. BUT that voice in The Mind IS THE CAGE that is imprisoning you. The Mind forces you to do what IT wants against YOUR own free will! In the end, overcoming the egoic urges of the mind is true FREE WILL.

Meditation has brought me to a place where I can give myself permission to have daily time-out in Sadhana. Where I have no specific result to attain, nothing to produce, nothing to perform for anyone else … I meditate because it teaches me that DISCIPLINE IS FREEDOM.
