I’ve been meditating for a while. And I’ve done a variety of drugs. So I speak from experience.
Meditatation, like drugs, gets you high and changes your perceptions.
Meditation, unlike drugs, takes effort and practice. It’s also way way smoother. And there’s no ceiling.
And here’s a thing. Consider the act of concentrating your attention. The control, clarity and depth if perception that it brings. It’s something that we all use. Every scientist, engineer and artist uses concentration as his main tool, without which none of that would be possible. Concentration is the backbone of our culture.
One meditation technique (we basically have 2) takes that further. It takes that awesome power of concentration to very deep and strange places. Magical even. But still, it’s just that same old familiar magic that we all depend on, just taken further.
And then there is another meditation technique too.
