What should I do if I always fall asleep while meditating?

It is difficult for us to get rest, and our hearts are full of delusions. After reciting the sutras, our hearts gradually calmed down. Calm down, and sometimes fall asleep gently. Enjoying this purity is sometimes a good thing.

However, you can't sleep like this all the time, and you can't snooze all the time. You should also lift your spirits and keep chanting. This person is also very strange sometimes, if he says chanting, he will fall asleep after a while, and he will not need to take medicine, and he will sleep very sweetly.

If you want to say to play, he is very excited, and he is not sleepy all night.

There are two kinds of this kind of sleepiness: one is not wanting to listen, and the other is a manifestation of the gradual purification of the mind. Although he only recited a sutra and could say a few words, his heart was clear, and he would be sleepy and sleep soundly.

But after persevering for a long time, I gradually became less sleepy. You should insist on chanting sutras, reciting the Buddha and worshipping the Buddha, and you should always do this, and gradually you will correspond to the Dharma, so that you will not be sleepy. Sleepiness is also concentration.

A phenomenon of insufficiency. It doesn't matter, it'll get better slowly.

The essence of drowsiness and drowsiness is also a kind of thought, or a kind of "delusion", but they are more stubborn and huge than ordinary thoughts, and when they arrive, the huge seems to be unable to find their boundary, as if they are shrouded by an endless cover.

If you go to them like ordinary thoughts and delusions, you will find many of their rules and characteristics. In fact, they also have changes in birth and death, but the cycle of change is longer than ordinary thoughts and delusions, they are not eternal, they have no self-nature, they are also delusions.

1. Have a strong interest in entering the settlement. The purpose of meditation is to attain concentration, and in order to attain this goal, from the very beginning, from the moment you take your seat, you must move forward courageously, and work hard and tenaciously to overcome the enemies and obstacles that interfere with your inability to settle down.

2. Sit in a correct and correct posture, do not bow over, do not collapse, and have a straight waist. It's okay to fall apart or sit on your knees.

3. First of all, we must overcome the tightness, itching, and pain of our body, and then we must overcome the scattering of our brain. And scattering is the reason why we are drowsy and always want to doze off. To overcome distraction, you have to focus on the chosen goal.

4. Constantly focus on the goal you have chosen, realize that your attention is scattered, and immediately return to the focus on the goal. Our habits keep taking us away from the goal of concentration, and we have to keep getting back to the goal. This is a stubborn battle for every meditator, and only those who continue to fight will achieve ultimate success.

4. The longer you meditate, the better, preferably for more than 1 hour from the beginning. It's a good idea to schedule a longer period of time to meditate on weekends.

5. It is best to practice meditation alone, even if you practice with others, to maintain your independence and not be disturbed by others.

6. Have the determination to collect evidence within the specified time, and dare to clearly experience the entry within the specified time. Maybe 1 day, maybe 3 days, maybe 7 days, but don't delay it for a long time. Because there is still a long way to go, it is just a skill to get started.

If the body does not fall, does not snore, does not drool, does not dream. It shouldn't be really asleep, it should be lethargic. Sometimes, it can also be some kind of deep concentration.

Shallow drowsiness, deep drowsiness, clarity, dropping, shallow determination, deep concentration and so on are alternate, drowsy to a certain time, may suddenly be clear again, clear to a certain time, may be suddenly drowsy...

Actually, all states are changing, and no matter how they change, you have to know and be aware of their changes.

There are four seasons in a year, there are day changes in a day, the universe has a good life, there is a bad sky, there are thunder, lightning, wind and rain, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have joys, sorrows, and sorrows. And so everything is changing, and so on everything has a law, and so on everything has a law.

What is lethargy? I couldn't lift my spirits, and after sitting for a long time, he dozed off and slept. Not only do you sleep when you sit, but you also sleep when you stand up.

When we were young, we were monks, and we went to the temple in the morning and evening, and everyone stood there in shifts, and we heard someone snoring, and they were snoring there, and they were drowsy, and the old monk beat him with an incense board, and he stood there and slept. There is also better kung fu, walking and sleeping, circling the Buddha, he is snoring when he is circling the Buddha, very powerful! So it's a problem.

What's the other problem? The heart can't settle down, he doesn't sleep, his spirit is very good, and he has a lot of delusions, that's called dropping. This is what Buddhism says, these two kinds of troubles and habits are very heavy, and the mind cannot settle down.

As for those who can't settle down and drop their lifts, the Buddha helps them with the method of meditation. If the spirit can't be lifted up, the person who is drowsy, one is to let him go around the Buddha and walk the scriptures. He will also doze off when he is walking, and there is a way to ask him to worship the Buddha.

Therefore, in Buddhism, the old monk stipulates that this kind of person should worship 3,000 times a day. Three thousand bows is about the same.

Seven or eight hours. Well, that's going to cure him.

Of course, you can also use the Buddha view to view the 32 phases of the Buddha and be bright, and naturally get the blessings of the Buddha to break all obstacles.

Mindfulness Meditation Meditation What to do if you meditate, fall asleep or get sleepy?

Cross your legs and place your hands naturally on your knees. The legs should be crossed naturally, remember to put them on the knees very naturally, there is no need to deliberately emphasize the posture of the hands, as long as we are comfortable, but remember to stick to it for a long time, and don't feel tired after sitting for a while. The waist must be straight.

When we meditate, we must be straight enough, when the waist is straight, we will feel a clear sense of stretching, there will be a very comfortable and very relaxed feeling, as if we are back in the big forest, we must create a comfortable feeling for ourselves, otherwise after sitting for a long time, we will also suffer from cervical spondylosis.

What if there is a phenomenon of lethargy and lifting? You should cheer up your spirits and mention the words or Buddha names. For example, at the beginning of the conversation, you mention "who is chanting Buddha"?

Again and again, again and again. When you chant the Buddha, you repeat "Amitabha, Amitabha, Amitabha, Amitabha......"Hold on tightly, and get over this slip. If you can't overcome it anymore, you can sit down, sit down and go through the line, and the line is to walk, walk in circles.

If you can't overcome this, you will run fragrantly, and when you are panting, you will suddenly stop, and immediately this sleepiness and sleepiness will be gone. At this time, the relaxation of the body and the movement of the muscles have reached a certain level of heat, and I sit down, and my heart will soon calm down. Because as soon as it runs, this delusion, it doesn't think about it.

Originally, you walked slowly, or sat there, and the delusion continued on your own, and after thinking about this, you continued to think about that. You can't think of any of these runs. That is to say, you will soon be able to get concentration, and this is a solution.

Excerpt from the teachings of Venerable Shang Miao Xia Xiang ("Zen Meditation") 2Meditation does cause lethargy, and we should use various methods to mediate.

Essentials of meditation. Wait a minute.

1. When pranayama and breathing, strive to be deep, long, thin and even, so that the body and mind can gradually return to calm. It was like a pool of lake water that was originally rippling, but suddenly, the wind stopped, the rain stopped, and even the fish in the water rested, and gradually, the lake became as level as a mirror. Feel the breath in and out, and you will find that the turbid heat in your body is slowly exhaled.

Supplemented by visualization: the high energy and fresh energy of the universe are replenished, and in an instant you will feel that your whole body is shining with gold and crystal clear. The originally boiling blood gradually calmed down.

Question: Master, I often get drowsy when meditating, what should I do?

Venerable Da'an replied: In this era, all sentient beings who meditate will definitely be drowsy. Why?

The entire external environment is a disturbing phase, a moving phase; The whole air is not fresh, the water is also turbid, and the outer world corresponds to the inner body isomorphically, so all beings in this world are prone to drowsiness.

We have experimented, that is, to meditate in the monastery with a bright sail, maybe the first fifteen minutes are a little clearer, and after the fifteen minutes have passed, it will slide into a mild drowsiness; may slide into moderate, deep drowsiness after forty-five minutes; You may even start snoring after an hour of hail.

So it turned out that our Donglin Temple Buddha Seven was to read for half an hour, sit for half an hour, and then found that soon after sitting down, everyone drooped a head, not sitting there to meditate, but there to sleep, sitting and sleeping, so we will not sit in the future, and have been traveling.

The words of the "Amitabha Sutra" have told us the method of treatment, and it is easy to get drowsy after eating, what should I do if I get drowsy? Warp. Then there is the worship of the Buddha and the fact that you are in a dynamic situation.

If you sit all the time, you can't do it, and when you are drowsy, you mainly worship the Buddha through the scriptures, and you can cure the drowsiness.

To meditate and wake up means to fall asleep while meditating and then wake up.

Meditation is based on the adjustment of the body, pranayama and mind, and it is necessary to adjust this state at all times so that it is in a state of stability, and this state is a state of clarity and stillness, or meditation or meditation or concentration, but it is by no means sleep.

Ordinary beginners who meditate often find that their thoughts are very chaotic, and they are even more irritated and restless than when they are not meditating. Therefore, I am even more panicked, thinking that I should not "meditate", or add legends such as martial arts ** and folk myths, I am afraid that "meditation" will "go crazy". In fact, this is all unreasonable, wrong and misunderstood, constituting a psychological shadow. It is a well-known fact that one's life needs rest, and it is also an undeniable truth.
