1) This online journal is an honest reflection of my experience on my path of meditation. Currently the first half of this journal is focused on the 10 (12)-day retreat I completed in October 2009 at the Illinois Vipassana Meditation Center. The experience there was incredibly challenging; so some of the language in the journal will be blunt, and a few swear words will be included. If you will be potentially offended by any of that, I invite you to go ahead and exit this space now – no harm, no foul. : ) Thanks.
2) Some of this information may seem “odd” (especially to folks unfamiliar with meditation practice), and/or maybe even slightly crazy (perhaps even to people who ARE familiar with meditation - *smile*). Everything I share here is my personal experience, and only my personal experience – I don’t speak for anyone else, or anything else (i.e., I don’t represent any specific group, organization, method, “religion”, etc.). I just speak for myself – so take all of the words shared in this space with that particular grain of salt.
If you are cool with those two facets of this site, feel free to poke around, and read whatever grabs your fancy. I’m happy to share it with you.
