Remember Any Forums that material possessions cannot make you happy, and the lack of them cannot make you unhappy.
Desire and aversion are the source of all suffering. Lose your desire and your aversion and you will be free, simple as.

Yes but not wagieing will, so I need money. Not millions but if I could pay off my farm I'd be nearly able to quit my job.

>Desire and aversion are the source of all suffering.
Yes, and suffering is the source of all meaning. By your logic, you could sit on a filthy room all day shitting yourself and peeing on the floor while you meditate your sense of disgust away
Meditation is a midwit trap
t. someone who has meditated for 10 years daily, and realized how stupid it is beyond stress control (which by the way you can accomplish with any task, piano or drawing, and will achieve more than sitting down like a retard larping as the airbender from avantar)

All I want is land so that I can actually work my own land. I have absolutely no desire for material possessions other than to make more $. Yet I’ll never have enough to buy dirt.

Perhaps you hate me cause I say the truth, the whole meditation movement was brought in the West by literal rapists that use the whole thing as a way to sexually abusive women, make cults and get free gibs out of selling you meaning in life with a bunch of ballooney (It began in California, that alone should tell anyone with a brain how corrupt it actually is).
No, I am not lying. I've legit been meditating since I was 13, sometimes up to 10 hours a day (personal experiments). Enjoy developing a dissasociated disorder, losing all meaning and ambition only to realize how much of a moron you were years down the line, when you remember you are a human, always will be, and that only through embracing suffering can one actually find meaning in life. Running away from desire to avoid pain is OMEGA MALE Mentality.

I have meditated for 20 years and that guy probably just meditated wrong, don't be angry at him
Jayden Hughes
Yes, the importation of Meditation from Asian into the West began in California, that's right. The movement that has been spreading through the West for the last decade has its beginning in greed, corruption and manipulation (The opposite of what it even teaches, as many things in life). In fact, it is very often used by Indian old men, to grope and sexually abuse women in India aswell.

You want to true meaning in life? You want something that is genuinely going to help you?
Just read Marcus Aurelius Meditations, become stoic. Draw, lift or play an instrument instead of meditating (you'll meditate through it anyway, trust me, meditation is just getting into the flow zone anyway).
Start embracing pain, buddy. You wanna get intoSadistmaxxing

Meditation turns you into a low energy cuck
Jacob Lewis
What is Sadistmaxxing?
Ayden Williams
Everything you just said is irrelevant to the benefits of meditation, and they are many
mastery of attention
breathwork
release of subconscious tension
under-loading your nervous system
insight into the machinations of the mind
the list goes on but I’ve made my point well enough
Camden Ward
You target every single thing you've been avoiding to do because it makes you feel uncomfortable (that has some utility or positive benefit to you), and you do it even if you don't wanna, until you learn to love the way it hurts.
Lifting, new skill, cold showers, asking a girl out, homework, personal project.. etc whatever it is
Where others instinctively avoid something to seek comfort, you get ANGRY and go straight for it, and DEMAND IT HURTS MORE BECAUSE YOU CAN TAKE IT
Kevin Davis
Yeessss turn over to the dark side
Alexander Lee
Being edgy and choosing a method of self-development where you intentionally hurt youself so you feel pain. Something a basket-weaving turbo autist would consider. I usually punish my body with pain when i do something bad, so my brain learns so its not sadistmaxxing.
Cooper Peterson
if you drink water and it doesn't satiate your thirst there's clearly something wrong
you wouldn't say water doesn't work, you'd look for the problem
but the human brain is complex, for example, like some people are schizophrenic, so I wouldn't be surprised if some people don't benefit from meditating
Easton Phillips
You kinda missed the point. It was meditation that brought you that wisdom. You didn't know you should have stopped until it brought you self awareness.
You only meditate as much as needed, just as you only eat enough food, have enough sleep, do the right amount of work, have the right amount of fun.
Excesses obviously breed problems
