Meditation: We are exploring different corners of our mind. It’s an adventure”.
“One of the misunderstandings I used to have about meditation was that I should try to do something when I meditate. Meditation is not about doing anything; it’s basically about resting. In a way, meditation is a process of un-doing”. -Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche
How to Meditate

The practice of meditation is basically a process of getting to know yourself. How do you do it?
When Is Meditation Non-Meditation?
Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche
There are many ways to meditate, many different meditation practices and techniques, but here I would like to focus on the three qualities of sitting or resting meditation taught in Vajrayana Buddhism. These three qualities are: Non-distraction, Non-meditation, Non-fabrication
