in this episode, I share a recent and fascinating breakthrough in my meditation practice. despite sitting consistently with laser focus on the object, something was missing, and I was falling into a downward spiral in life. it turns out, this is a well documented obstacle called subtle dullness. i talk about how i came to this realization, and how I finally overcame it by sharing vulnerably in community and allowing myself to be a beginner again (surrender)
love you,
george

I could say a lot of words to your ego that would feel very lovely, but I'll save them and just say instead that it is so great of a human feeling to know that someone out in the world is walking and smiling, learning and teaching, and being love much the same way as I am, but entirely differently. Thanks for sharing your perfectly messy and brave human journey of being love in fluctuatingly peaceful existence.

Hi George, as a non-native English speaker I'm a bit confused. Is subtle dullness actually the beginning of the time when you are supposed to fall asleep. Or is it a phase when you don't feel like it or can't concentrate? 🙏

It’s more like when you think you are meditating really well, but actually you’re just going through the motions Does that make sense?

Thanks George, to be honest I don't know. Does not falling asleep have a role to play when it comes to subtle dullness?
