Review: Meditation from Cold Start to Complete Mastery (sashachapin.substack.com)
3 points by rzk on Aug 4, 2022 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments



IMHO a discussion of meditation without the word suffering or Buddhism seems a little... cult of personality or, and I hate to use the term, a little culture-appropiation-ish.But I guess that's the author's prerogative.

The blog/book it's self going into more depth about those things.

I'm just curious why this review doesn't even touch those ideas at it's significant length (>6000 words).


"Complete Mastery" already sounds fake. Meditation is not something you "master." It's a learning process, and you can always improve. It's getting acquainted with your Self, and that involves lifelong practice. Anyone who says they've "mastered" meditation is unclear on the concept.
