Why Meditation Alone isn't enough - Meditation Community vs Solo Practice

Описание: Meditation looks like a solitary path, but it isn't - and was never meant to be. Practice doesn't occur in a vacuum. We don't awaken in isolation.

One of the Hidden Barriers to Growth and a Universal Fear about Meditation is how to connect with a Meditation Community (Sangha/Group) ... "will I have to share personal thoughts" "will it be awkward" "what if sound stupid" are the most common thoughts that arise. That's natural, especially as we live in a dominance/isolated cuture. Too much solitary practice occurs, especially in the beginning of the journey, without the wisdom and support of a sangha ... without a skillful container and community that sees you and understand safety in practice and staying within window of tolerance and that all boats rise together one can get lost or stunted in evolving on this path. We learn the MOST from our peers - the last living Budha said it's 100% of this contemplative practice. In this video I discuss this phenomenon and explore why awakening happens together, how community helps and supports the journey. Enjoy!
