fizix Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) If you could choose to meditate in any location on the planet.... the meditation spot of your dreams, deepest fantasy..hehe, but let's keep it platonic How about under the world's tallest tree? This ancient sage could definitely teach a thing or two about meditation edit: OR anywhere in the universe... I mean, who wouldn't want to meditate on the moon with a view like that? (hypothetically of course) edit2: let's spice it up...optional: how about anywhere in ANY fictional universe as well? *star wars nerd alert*: The beautiful grasslands of naboo? or perhaps the mysterious and ancient Massassi temple site in the deep forests of Yavin IV?

innerspace_cadet Posted May 20, 2011 I've never been there, but meditating at Easter Island would be cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C T Posted May 20, 2011 Maybe a dream meditation spot is the very spot where someone wakes up suddenly and realize that life is nothing but a dream after all?!! Seriously... there are plenty of places that are very conducive atmospherically for deep contemplations. Personally, since coming over to Europe, i have been captivated by the serene, palpable energy found in old chapels and ancient stone circle sites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henro Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) Hua Shan I've been many times, probably my favorite place in the world. . . you should go soon, they're building another chairlift all the way to the top. Soon it'll be even more of a tourist trap Edited May 20, 2011 by robmix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xabir2005 Posted May 20, 2011 When I went to this place years ago... I thought this would be a perfect place to meditate. But too bad it's become a tourist attraction. http://www.google.com.sg/search?um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=YRbWTevvDYKisAO-g_iwBw&ved=0CDYQBSgA&q=jiuzhaigou&spell=1&biw=1920&bih=1040 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C T Posted May 20, 2011 Circles! Last week, I just learned via a documentary about Stonehenge's sister circles. Yeah, you ought to hasten a visit soon, RV! I lived in England for 3 years - regrettably never made the effort to visit Stonehenge. There are many mystical sites here in Ireland as well. http://www.google.ie/search?q=stone+circles+of+ireland&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=1278&bih=618 None as magnificent as Stonehenge though, imo.

Jetsun Posted May 20, 2011 Stonehenge is the more famous stone circle but it is closed off to the public most of the year, but less well known is the nearby stone circle of Averbury which you are free to sit in and meditate as much as you like They somehow moved those huge stones weighing many tonnes all the way from Wales thousands of years ago It's quite a powerful place to visit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Everything Posted May 20, 2011 I have no idea why, but I would like to meditate in between the dream and waking. This blackness and senselessneas. Just your consciousness and thoughts. To translate that into a location: deep black cold pitchdark floating soundless space. In the middle of nowhere. Away from the earth to infinity. I find that idea peaceful. It is like my own core being shines brighter in such a place. In a lucid dream I was meditating while riding a bike and I entered this nothingness where I could hear my self thinking, continue dreaming or lying in bed. It is like witnessing the dualities, the relativness of reality. This detached mindset was powerful for me as it allowed for more emotional resilience. I could just block out all the negativity by making it conscious. Then refocus on the positive or diffrent more promising set of potentials. Without this detached mindset, the bigger sub conscious picture is not seen and the infinite potential of each moment just flows by like river, where it continues to form an endless waterfall, without you ever noticing this from happening. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
