Modern Religious Experience: Reflection #4: Buddhist Meditation: "Spend 20 mintues in a silent meditation; a place you won't be disturbed, your own 'fig tree' as was Buddha's inspiration. In those 20 mintue..."

During my meditation, i found that it was very relaxing and i was focused for the most part. It was hard to keep my mind off the weekend and what i was going to do that night but i think in general it's not easy to meditate because we do have different things that distract us. I did discover that i should maybe be less stressed and start thinking more positively. I also did the breathing exercises we did in class, last class and that controlled my thinking and meditation.
