the most basic, simple meditation technique that I find very effective

non-meditation

 

 

 

no effort, no technique

[Bearded Dragon]

Pretty much. Although. one still needs the foresight to notice blockages and put themselves in situations where no effort and technique can be applied in order to refine the self. Otherwise no effort/technique is an excuse to be lazy and withdrawn like some meditators who prefer to sit on their butt rather than face their issues.

The extremes unite, when you do so sincerely, it becomes meditation and effort :-) Sincerety is awareness. Has to be included in this formula.
