People often discuss effortlessness in meditation, but would you even know what effortless meditation would even like?

Let’s try an experiment without delay. Hold your dominant hand out where you possibly can see it. Now clench it right into a fist and squeeze. Squeeze it hard. Really do it. Really, really hard.

Now let go of that squeezing. Feel how that’s different.

So here’s my query: I believe we are able to all agree that the squeezing is an motion. But what in regards to the letting go? Is that also an motion?

In the way in which we’re working on this video, for the needs of practice, this letting go is just not an motion. It’s a letting go or ceasing of the motion you were doing previously. It’s a relinquishing of effort. It’s not-doing.

That is an easy meditation. Meditation without doing. Try it.
