The Flat Calm

Date: April 9, 2025

Last night, I tried again, but nothing special happened. No sounds, no tingling, no clear images.

I went to bed with the intention to remain receptive, but it seems my body or mind simply wasn’t ready to detach this time. I did follow the same procedure: calm approach, clear intention, same posture. But it happens. One must also accept these more neutral nights, where nothing obvious happens—even though deeper work might still be going on.

Perhaps I was too tired. Perhaps I had too many expectations without realizing it. Or perhaps this night was just a pause.

What I take from this is that I’m still in the process. And that even the nights without clear signs are part of the journey.
