THE BIGGEST MYTH AND THE HONEST TRUTH ABOUT MEDITATION
One of the biggest myths about meditation is that the purpose of practice is to experience bliss or to enter ‘nirvana’.
The truth is, meditation is a practical tool that helps us understand the reactivity of our mind. This can help us to gain better perspective and not be so easily carried away by racing thoughts and emotions. Basically, it helps us to realize that we are not our thoughts—the depth of the person that we are has a deep well of calm.
