Es te šobrīd vairāk citātus, vnk ir šis tas uzradies pēdējā laikā, jāpieraksta, lai nepazūd.But many people say they have tried meditation and failed. Here are some common complaints about meditation:
I can’t do it. My mind wanders. I can’t sit still. I can’t concentrate that long. I fall asleep. I have too many noisy thoughts.
If your first attempt or first several attempts at meditation resulted in any of these thoughts, then congratulations — you’ve meditated!
Many people perceive meditation as a magical moment of transformation. But meditation isn’t about perfection. It’s about awareness. Being aware that your mind wanders, that you’re tired, that you can’t sit still, that your mind is racing — that’s the point of meditation.

No šī viedokļa:Notice the five senses.
Start by taking a few calming breaths.
Now, see five things around you. It can be items on your desk such as a lamp, a notepad and a pen, or trees and rocks as you take a walk.
Touch four things — the fabric of your clothes, a book, a leaf, the cat.
Hear three things. Notice a dog barking, the click of a keyboard, laughter in the break room.
Smell two things. Sniff the air, the detergent smell that lingers on your clothes.
Taste one thing. End your meditation with a bite of chocolate, a piece of fruit or a treat from the office candy dish.

Atkarībā no tā, vai to ir viegli uztaisīt un vadīt, šis varētu būt the next big thing un riktīgi pamainīt, kā un kas notiek pasaulē pēc, teiksim, kādiem 15-20 gadiem:
Scientists at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a programmable metafluid with tunable springiness, optical properties, viscosity and even the ability to transition between a Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid.
The first-of-its-kind metafluid uses a suspension of small, elastomer spheres — between 50 to 500 microns — that buckle under pressure, radically changing the characteristics of the fluid. The metafluid could be used in everything from hydraulic actuators to program robots, to intelligent shock absorbers that can dissipate energy depending on the intensity of the impact, to optical devices that can transition from clear to opaque.

At this point I'd figured out what you need to put in grant proposal to get the money. And that's what I did.
I applied for grants on research projects, because it was a way to make money, not because I thought it would leave an impact in the history of science.
It's not that what I did was somehow wrong. It was and still is, totally state of the art.
I did what I said I'd do in the proposal, I did the calculation, I wrote the papers, I wrote the reports, and the reports were approved. Normal academic procedure.
But I knew it was bullshit, just as most of the work in that area is currently bullshit and just as most of academic research that your taxes pay for is almost certainly bullshit.
The real problem I had, I think, is that I was bad at lying to myself.

Varbūt tiešām ir cilvēki, kuru bērnība ir bijusi tik piespiesti pareiza, pārkontrolēta un nolaizīta, ka vienīgais, kā viņi var sajusties kaut cik kā patstāvīgas būtnes, ir ar pašdestruktīvām darbībām.-
