Strong determination sitting, your experience / recommendation

[Gabith]

Hi, I'm doing strong determination sitting since 10 days and I was wondering if you guys do this type of meditation since months/years and if it's worth the effort & suffering we put in this habit, or if I should stick to do nothing / other meditation techniques. 

Also I'm not sure if I do this correctly: I try to feel into the pain without resisting, I slow my breath and feel the pain. I try to not get lost in my mind because it creates lot of dialogues / mental images about suffering and even fear of harming the body.

It's a waste of time.

Look up Kiloby inquiries, it's much more effective than just sitting with pain.

What is the point of this practice? 

Sounds like it can agitate the mind and erode the body. It may also emphasize the doer perspective because sneaky ego mecahnisms will want to sit and suffer as much as possible.

Your goal is awakening or sitting endlessly? Did you try a more direct approach like inquiry?
