A nuanced approach to meditation

I think Shinzen young’s Video here provides some great insight regarding the importance of taking an approach to meditation that suits where you’re at.

I think it’s vital to figure out whether you have a weaker sense of self or a stronger sense of self. And can be an important way of avoiding the dangers of spiritual pursuits. For example, as I recall shinzen saying, someone with bpd will have a weaker sense of self so more work with meditating on inner experiences will likely be more fruitful at first. If that same person worked at first on focusing on outer experiences it could actually be counterproductive and further weaken their sense of self.

Thought this could be a useful resource to share
