10 Nondual Meditations - Joshua Norager
Introduction
This is a short series of ten nondual meditations.
Though based somewhat on my first book — 36 Nondual Exercises — I go into a little more detail and elaboration here. These are the most powerful of all the exercises that I know of. Their aim is to allow you see who you really are, for yourself, soon, and to find peace in this — a peace which relies on nothing but itself, standing unshaken and true no matter what occurs. They are nondual in the sense that they are practices described in such Indian and Chinese systems of mysticism as Advaita Vedanta, Taoism and Mahayana Buddhism, and also insofar as they point to an understanding of reality which is beyond all dualities — that is, the direct perception of reality itself, beyond thought.
If it helps to talk yourself through these practices mentally, then do so. Silence cannot always be enforced. (Perhaps it is not even a good idea to do so, in certain instances.) Even if you talk yourself through these meditations, your thoughts will eventually give way to experience and you will feel and know what the practice is about, spontaneously. One moment you will be guiding yourself, mentally, and the next moment you will sink into a bright, clear silence. Then you will know for yourself. But you do not need to force yourself to talk if you find that talking is a hindrance. Oftentimes meditation starts out with a plan, then the plan ends and something new arises. This is good: let it happen. Sometimes
