This was enlightening.

If I could get any animal it would be a dolphin. I want one bad. Me and my mom went swimming with dolphins. I was like, 'How do we get one of those?' and she was like, 'You can't get a dolphin. What are you gonna do, put it in your pool?' Miley Cyrus

Well if you're not self-centered, you're off-center. If you're not lazy, you're trying too hard. If you're not irresponsible, you're blaming yourself for something you didn't do. If you're not a fool, then you're bound to be a tool.

Who's on first. What's on second. Where's on third. When's at home.

BWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK ALL!!!!!

Now go on... ya bother me.

How important is it to find a quiet place to do this. I am surrounded by squeeky shoes, tv's, and motor mouths.
Can't you get hold of some mantras, the Robert Monroe mp3's, or some binaural tones?

I use them a lot.

That's a great breakdown of buddhism, Pana. Great that it comes down to one simple core practice. I I need to learn concentration.

I want to get to the stage in meditation where you can lose the body.
