While I by no means have a handle on it I've had a number of transient wonderful experiences while meditating in which I feel the pain, but it ceases to cause suffering ... in fact there is a sort of sensation of pulsating massage almost rather than discomfort where the pain is...<br /><br />Shinzen Young has written about and works with issues around pain a lot. I have found some of his work instructive at times.<br /><br />Hope your back feels better soon. While it can serve as teacher I'd rather have a different one! But certainly as long as I have it I do try to keep that perspective.Monica Cassanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13969938853749704756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5043003269935490917.post-17113325601656550472009-05-06T08:37:00.000+01:002009-05-06T08:37:00.000+01:00Peter, I agree, it is incredibly difficult to deta...Peter, I agree, it is incredibly difficult to detach from physical pain as it is so present and many times unrelenting. I've tried to see the pain's effect on my mental formations...I don't like this, I need to move, Ouuuccchh!!!<br /><br />I feel your pain and hope you find some relief soon.<br /><br />KyleKylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14925360776637168540noreply@blogger.com
