Meditation Health Facts
Why not get deep vein thrombosis Buddha?
Sitting in the lotus position for eternity … It's true that can not be good for health? This may seem an impertinent question, but in reality is a serious problem. Is not idle for long time partners in meditation postures that would increase the risk of potentially fatal blood clots? If not, why not? (I am a Buddhist, but I find meditation to be incredibly difficult undertaking.)
There is no doubt that meditation is incredibly difficult. But this difficulty comes from the spirit of resistance is not – any physical risk. In 20 years of constant meditation retreats including many long, I've never heard of anyone suffering any injury from the practice of meditation. Occasionally, someone will have a knee injury that prevents sitting with legs crossed, in this case, sitting in a chair. A good meditation room managed includes walking meditation between periods of sitting meditation. Sit for 30 minutes, walk for 10 minutes, and repeat. (Or whatever the duration session.) This pattern walking and sitting is more than enough to prevent clotting. In most Furthermore, there is no reason to sit in the lotus position in a complete – a stance that Westerners can not bear. There is nothing magical or special about lotus. Meditation requires only that the body is stable and you can sit without moving if the long-term period. Many people sitting in half lotus or "Burma" position (with legs bent and feet in carpet). Some people sit in seiza (kneeling, perhaps using a bank) or in a chair. Even I saw people with serious injuries meditate lying. The position does not matter – what matters is how to keep the mind. As I said, most of the challenges in meditation come from our thinking mind. The mind resists fiercely meditation. Start with the desire to itch that is so familiar for new meditators. Then, when we resist the temptation, the mind becomes drowsy. Or tells crazy stories about what we do with our time. The mind does not like notable – and meditation has to do with the examination of the mind. It takes courage to withstand the spirit of the b * t * llsh also Keep in mind, I think it's important not to confuse the Buddha and therefore give godlike powers. He did not sit still days. He had to go to the bathroom, like the rest us. He slept and ate. He got up and stretched. He was a human being, and do what ordinary human beings do. But the Buddha never lost sight of the point practice: to awaken the suffering and help others better. wishes your way!
