    My initial request was about meditation - about 'to be good at meditation' .... as soon as there is a stake in the ground a donkey will be bound to it eventually.

    I am surprised to read this thread as something about initiation, Buddhism, hierarchy, cynicism and so forth .... hmmmm.... most likely driving in a stake could be compared to opening a thread :blush5:

    I'm just curious how the whole thing evolves ;-)

    It is worded incorrectly, the person maybe saying I am good at a meditation technique, I wouldn't get to excited, this is no better that a robot, he may be good at the technique, but most likely he will never reach a state of meditation.

    I enjoy seeing things when I meditate. Better than any Alex grey painting! Rare, but I would call that a successful meditation.

    Perhaps when we look back we will find we are just getting better and just getting started.
