understand your soulz

 as my previous meditation, i tried to go back to the past.  This time round, I read this section again and realised that I can move to the 'future', explaining as such... think about tomorrow, week after what you will do, months after, then maybe to your death and experience beyond...  I tried to go into meditation stance. thinking what i will do tomorrow, and so of the recurring yearly 'happenings' and then i kept 'seeing' this scene.  i am not sure if it is long woolen carpet or long grass, i moved my head around and only saw these long 'grass' or 'wool', all in grey... i tried a few times to move beyond this scene, but stuck.... and i stopped my meditation. I couldn't figure out what it was for few days.  and while mentioning this scene to a fren, i realised that it could be my death.... that's what i will see... just a thought....  One thing to note in meditation, never hang on to what you 'see'...

I chanced upon this book How To Meditate by Kathleen MacDonald at a store shelf. It was within a pile of free books for Buddhism. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/271251.How_to_Meditate I am still in early pages of the book.  definitely useful for beginner or intermediate level.  I have been practicing meditation on-and-off for quite some time, you can read about my experiences in my previous blogs.  this book managed to put the thoughts, the way of meditation to the next level.  Meditation to continuity of mind, I was practicing this method which teaches us to try and look beyond our present life, but into our past and maybe future lives.  Some might think this is crazy or ridiculous stuff.., .me too.  but no harm to try since I have been practicing for few years and wanted to know what more I can do with meditation.  I followed the instructions (aim to go beyond my present to my past lives). Starting meditation by focusing on breath... then move to tracing back yesterday, weeks, y
