question. 

are guided meditations nonsense? 

how can you get to the place of stillness and no-thought if someone is yapping in your ear? 

personal experiences and preferences welcome

Also I would disagree with the idea of ‘no thought’. Having zero thoughts isn’t achievable and can be potentially dangerous. The idea of meditation is to practice allowing the thoughts to come and go, letting the thoughts in rather than blocking them out and allowing them to pass, bringing the attention back to the body.

well, eastern tradition would say “mindfulness” is a total misnomer — we are trying to practice mindLESSness

Seems a contradiction to separate the mind whilst practising mindfulness at the same time. Haven’t read it so can’t really comment but it feels odd trying to separate the mind from the body as it’s necessarily a gestalt entity. Shall suspend disbelief tho and check it out!

idk, i’m reading the power of now by tolle right now and from what i understand, he is advocating for separating from the mind and practicing pure presence, where there is no space for mind chatter, rather just an experience of “now-ness” that is unfiltered
