Yeh whatever... [Indifferentness thread]

Do You sometimes feel like you don't care about nothing? And just lying in Your bed and starring into the ceiling... Like when You have no thoughts and no images in Your mind and You don't really notice the outside world. And You're feeling pointless and hopeless. And You do nothing and say nothing. And the only sign of You being alive is Your regular breath...

I've had a couple of moments like this and to be honest they are bliss when compared to always thinking. When you speak of thinking about nothing do you mean "meditation" nothing or just nothing in particular?

Inscription for the Ceiling of a Bedroom

Daily dawns another day;
I must up, to make my way.
Though I dress and drink and eat,
Move my fingers and my feet,
Learn a little, here and there,
Weep and laugh and sweat and swear,
Hear a song, or watch a stage,
Leave some words upon a page,
Claim a foe, or hail a friend-
Bed awaits me at the end.

Though I go in pride and strength,
I'll come back to bed at length.
Though I walk in blinded woe,
Back to bed I'm bound to go.
High my heart, or bowed my head,
All my days but lead to bed.
Up, and out, and on; and then
Ever back to bed again,
Summer, Winter, Spring, and Fall-
I'm a fool to rise at all!

I mean nothing... It's hard to explain. My mind is blank. I don't meditate. It's too hard

well, do you think that meditation is anything but thinking about nothing, making your mind a blank? That is why it is so highly prized. Most people think when they get to satori some little brass band comes parading along to let you know you got there, but nope, that 'blank' is EXACTLY what meditators are looking for.

how cool, ReGiFroFoLa! Think of how much you saved on Transcendental Meditation lessons.
