What have I gained from meditation…
Jeroen
Not all those who wander are lostNetherlands Veteran
I came across this:
The Buddha was asked, “What have you gained from meditation?”
The Buddha replied, “Nothing! However, let me tell you what I have lost: anger, anxiety, depression, insecurity, fear of old age and death.”

I have lost so many things then. Good riddance! I still can't get rid of the I nor reach the famous Jhanas. I do see though how I tend to overthink and zazen is that moment when I can stare at the whirpool and let it rest...before returning to it again...
