It's difficult to quantify. As I've mentioned, sixteen years ago my life was quite chaotic - I was working far too hard and drinking way too much. So I had already decided that I needed to change my life. Meditation was a big part of this and it was through meditation that the shift in perception occurred. Sixteen years later I'm in a very different place - how much of this is due to a steady meditation practice, lifestyle choices or the insight, I'm not exactly sure. What is clear is that there is a certain underlying ease or well-being in the present moment perception of existence as an ever-fresh spontaneous happening.As I've indicated, analytical thinking - in particular the tendency to fragment and freeze-frame the flow of existence as it unfolds can be a hindrance to seeing existence as the dynamic shifting gestalt that it is.
It's never too late for a welcome, quinn. Nice to meet you.
