So you guys are probably wondering where I have been. Sorry that I didn’t tell you about it before but I went on a almost 2 week meditation course where all you do is eat sleep and meditate for 10 days straight.

No reading, No writing, No talking, No looking at anyone and No dinner.

Wake up time was @ 4:15am each morning and everyone had to get into bed by 9:30pm.

For some that may seem like a living hell. I spoke to some people before I went and most of the responses were the same.

“I could never do that”, “I would go insane”, “What no dinner? Is it a weight loss camp?”.

Well weight loss, not exactly, but you sure do get to dump a lot of the mental weight you carry around.

I did my best to go in without any real expectations.

Some people their who I was talking to before the noble silence started talked about how one of their female relatives did the course and said it was harder than having 4 kids, other talked about stories about people walking naked into the bush and not coming back for some time and others wanting any piece of normal society who just read their name tag and over again for 10 days straight.

It was only after conversations like these, that I realized how helpful having the noble silence would be.

So how did I go? And what in the world is this post about?

Well I’m not going to talk about how I have come out a fully enlightened person.

But I really didn’t know how sitting in silence you could learn so much about yourself. The meditation technique forces deep unconscious wounds to the surface level by which you deal with by your new found awareness and observation.

This is why some people react in some severe ways and others can’t bear to spend the 10 days. After the experience when we got a day of recovery where we could share our experiences most of the responses were … “At times it was so hard and I wanted to leave”.

This is something that we all go through. Because for once when “our” shite comes up … we have nothing to distract ourselves with. We have to deal with this difficulty front on. We can no longer suppress it. We can no longer find something pleasurable to do to monetarily make us feel better.

What did I learn? That happiness is based on the simple things. Its not gained for being successful or achievement. Its not gained by being the right weight, wearing the nicest outfit or being the most popular person. It doesn’t come when you get the promotion, when you get the girl or boy, when you get that goal you have always wanted and desired.

These are all false identities of happiness. Something the ego wants that can never really be fulfilled.

Peace, happiness and harmony is found talking a walk and noticing the way the wind blows the trees from side to side. Happiness is walking to same path everyday to work but noticing something new that was always there but you were never aware of before. Happiness and peace comes from absolute self acceptance of yourself, exactly how you are, at exactly this point in time.

Of course I could go on and on and on about this and tell you all these lessons I learnt. But there is a real difference from me telling you about these learnings and actually experiencing it yourself.

That is where true experiential wisdom comes from. Nothing else. So for those that come here because they are curious or want some advice on how they can better learn to attract the opposite sex because you think that it will lead to happiness.

I’m here to tell you that finding that dream boy/girl, that dream situation, that dream self image … will not make you happy.

None of it will.

The only way you can truly really be happy, is to be here in THIS moment and appreciate all that you have right now.

Simple … but not always easy.
