Balloon head

投稿: 12 参加年月日: 23/08/24 最新の投稿
I had an awesome experience while meditating. I'm pretty sure it was single pointed jhana practice but I was also listening to a Mahasi Sayadaw guided meditation on youtube. 

I'm uncertain how I got there but my body disappeared and a white balloon was located where my head should be, no head no body, just the balloon that expanded with the in breath and deflated with the out breath. It lasted 3 to 15 min, I meditate laying down and fell asleep after. I had deep equanimity after for days. 

I'm a DIY noob, just starting to get mediocre at the jhanas. 

I'm open to all guidance. 

thanks

​​​​​​​I searched "balloon head" and couldn't find anything.

I had ballon head a lot early in my practice. Glad you mentioned it.

Cool, do you have a suggestion as to what Jhana would correlate? I think I accidentally achieved a cessation beyond my skill set.

​​​​​​​Looking forward to being able to do it again.

All sorts of weird stuff happens while meditating. It's just another thing to let go and move on from.
