Indeed! One of those things that native scholars like to ignore when interpreting characters!

Is “yoga breathing” the same as Buddhist/Taoist meditation?

Oh, you cheated, you changed it way after I responded to it.

From the dictionary!

Poor OP must be thinking, ‘not very helpful up to now!’

Really? It’s a huge country. And with only 0.7% being Buddhist, there might not be any Buddhist centre near to OP. Anyway, I guess you actually meant to inform @Narayana that Taoist meditation is identical to Buddhist meditation. The whole Bodidharma story I guess.

My question was, why would you assume the OP did Buddhist meditation? I repeat India is 99.7% non-Buddhist.

What makes you assume Buddhist meditation is more readily available to OP than Taoist meditation? I repeat India is 99.7% non-Buddhist.

Now why would you assume the OP did Buddhist meditation? I repeat India is 99.7% non-Buddhist.

OP did not say they did any Buddhist meditation. Really? OP lives In India, that’s 99.3% non-Buddhist.

@steve JKJB might be a sockpuppet. JKJB might be @Shadow_self https://www.thedaobums.com/topic/54064-nathan-brine-revised-material/?do=findComment&comment=992408

Obviously. So why ask OP about Buddhist meditation instead of the Taoist meditation, as they should be the same???

The external elixer was found to be deadly after almost a millennium of use. Time will tell if the internal form will be any better.

Dark night of the senses.

Narayana is from India. Only about 0.7% of the total population of India is Buddhist. About 80% is Hindu, and about 14% Islam.

Lightbulbs, Stars, Golden flowers. Lightbulbs, Stars and Golden Flowers, to me they are all metaphors for the same Light.

A light bulb being switched on or not, best shows in the darkness.

Nothing better to do (beach is closed)?

That’s extremely alarming.

and the unknowable.

When one has experienced it, one knows. The light shines. When one hasn’t experienced it, one cannot exclude anything. Unfortunately then people tend to start thinking about it, that stops the process.

No there’s only one, always the same. It’s literal. The light shines. That’s it.
