Meditation: A Compass and a Path
An Interview With Dr. Paul R. Fleischman which gave answers to following questions.
- How would you define meditation?
- Can you share what the purpose of meditation is from your perspective?
- The common perception of meditation is that it is a very personal experience, and in recent times the emphasis seems to be on its utilitarian value. What are your thoughts?
- Can you say more about these moral attitudes?
- Can this skepticism actually play a helpful role in one's progress?
- What is the role, then, of logic vs. inner experience?
- What is the role of detachment in meditation? How does detaching help us become generous?
- Can you start by describing what actually happens when someone tries to meditate?
- So then how does watching that kaleidoscopic activity help you engage more effectively with life?
