[QUOTE="Astra_Jingga, post: 241480, member: 15080"] When it comes to how long can I maintain a still mind... I find it to be dependant on the state of my mind itself (and the surrounding environment) at any given time. But to answer your question; for me personally, it'd normally vary from 5 to 20 minutes; more than that would usually mean struggle as the distractions heighten (one of them being the appearance of the swirling purple or grey color I've mentioned on my other post) and the sleepiness comes. Only on very few occassions, I think I've managed to keep the stillness up to 30 minutes. As to how fast I can still my mind; I think I can always do that almost instantly-even now when I'm writing this. I just need to close my eyes and every image in my mind would just disappear into an empty blackness that I'd always take as 'void' and thinking nothing further of it. I'd still be able to hear sounds or noises from the surrounding environment, but for as long as they're 'normal' sounds to me, they'd not get me easily distracted. For the note, I've been practicing this eversince I met my master in 2007 (on and off, since I'm afraid I'm not the most diligent pupil he has 😁). But focusing only to the 'blackness' is not the only thing I'd be required to do in this matter, as my master taught me to also recite certain prayers for at least 1 hour (up to 2 or 3 hours-everyday, and even more hours, when situation demands it) while I'm trying not to get myself distracted. That's my master's main method of practicing and teaching spirituality, so to say. To give you perspective; have you ever seen Buddhist monks, sitting with concentration and reciting prayers with their big praying beads all, day long? That pretty much describes what I have to do in this matter. Salam, Astra [/QUOTE]
