Hello,
my name is Martin,I´m 20 years old and I live in Neustadt, Germany. I started practising because of Daniel´s "Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha" which I first read 2 or 3 years ago. I started with Mahasi-style noting-practice but wanted to cultivate a foundation in samadhi first which is why I switched to Pa Auk-style Anapanasati. Now, I am doing both practices.I am extremely gratefull that this site exists because neither am I member of any sangha nor do I have anybody to talk to about my attainments.
I wish everybody that they may progress well in their practise

SAY HELLO!

mai88 A&P? 7 Apr 8 2008, 8:23 AM EDT by mai88

Hello everybody,
a fiew years ago I read Daniel´s Book for the first time but not until a fiew months ago and many times rereading it I started pracising more seriously which means 2-4 hours "on the cushion" besides paying attention during the day whenever this is possible and I remember to do so.
To get to the point, during my 1 hour practise in the morning I got so engrossed in the perception of vibrations manifesting in the area around my lips that I felt like a particle of dust being pushed through space by the air molecules which was quite unsettling. Besides this, I recently started to get the feeling that something big might happen while meditating and hoped to reach the A&P event quickly.
So my question is if I´m really about to pass it and if someone knows how long it usually takes to get the A&P when you already have the feeling of beeing able to grasp it.
I´m glad for every reply, thank you
