A diffrent perspective

>>42469284
Meditation is deliberate focus of awareness.
It can be done many different ways, for many different reasons.

>>42469284
If you get good enough at buddhist meditation in particular, you can reach cessation which is kinda like crossing an asymptote where the mind becomes really calm and clear and then POP you end up on the other side of something. That's basically like shutting off a piece of malware that was running in your brain eating up 20% of your energy and turning it into stress, so you feel better all the time and don't get tired as easily.

I can vouch for this.

>What can actually be achieved with meditation?
the implementation of meditation equally into every action that is not just sitting or prayer
that's why zen is interesting, it is the buddha way taken further into an aesthetic

>>42469284
Expanded conscious awareness

>which dance takes me the furthest from the point I started from?
I'm sure meditating has those kind of goal-oriented benefits too, but I feel like the question is missing the point.

That's your dogma talking.

>What can actually be achieved with meditation?
increase metabolic rate from hitting very long average durations of breath
this is one of the early signposts
just get your breaths like 45 seconds long for an inhale-exhale
for an hour a day

Lol these people made the same snarky joke.
Either Eckhart Tolle posts on this board, or these people with the same sense of humor have not made it past the beginning stages of meditation.
