I like Shikantaza.

We basically have 2 meditation techniques.

  1. Hold your attention upon a thing as perfectly as you can for a while

  2. Watch the flow of experience-stuff (sights, sounds, thoughts, emotions, etc) while refraining from moving your attention in reaction to that.

Shikantaza is of the second variety.

Does guided meditation count? If so, I am a big fan of those.

I have no experience wth that.

What's it like?
