    I meditate, but different to most people.

    I try to meditate on one piece of scripture for about a week... keeping it in mind and thinking about it here and there throughout a day. It helps me to focus on God, rather than on all the distractions of everyday life.

    I meditate generally for about 20 minutes a day in terms of concerted practice but I semi-meditate a lot of the time whereby I slow my breathing down and use a chant or mantra when I feel myself getting stressed out or anxious.

    I usually, on average, meditate about 30 minutes a day but some days are different . sometimes it's 30, sometimes it's 15, even over 40 . It all depends on how I'm feeling & how the day is going .

    Meditation Is The Truth .

    I meditate twice a day for 13 mins each time. Once before work and once at lunch time. I've been in this practice for a little less than 2 years and I highly recommend it.

    You can meditate 24 hours a day. Meditation doesnt require to sit still and focus on your breathing

    I should have clarified it; I mean meditation separate from other activities.
    Meditation cannot be done 24 hours a day, when one is sleeping for example.

    Btw what do you think of the role of time in practicing mediation? I'm just curious. I'm not sure it is a training like physical training. It's about awareness, and i'm not sure being aware can be trained. When i practice meditation, my head just pops up "Why am i doing this". What is difference between 10 minutes and 1 hour meditating? i wonder

    I meditate at least 15 minutes a day. Depending on the day, it can increase to 30 or 40 minutes (another session during the day).

    Yes, being aware can be trained. So one gets better at it with time. Brain scans on advanced and beginner meditators meditating show different activity.

    Yesterday I did two and a half hours with the goal of transmutation. I started getting surges of well being after about an hour and it felt like I was having an orgasm. Today I'll probably go for about an hour or more.

    I started fantasizing before I started meditating so I had to do something about all that horny feeling.

    Gabriel Kalei on youtube does videos about this (and everything else), and he said he's doing well meditating for an hour a day. I took his advice and got crazy results.

    What do you mean crazy results? With respect to feelings during the meditation itself, or benefits in other areas of your life? If so, what?
