Every time I meditate, why do my legs become hard and painful?

Your question is very representative, many students of Buddhism meditate, they will have leg pain, of course, there are also many good foundations, the legs are very soft, cross-legged is not troublesome at all. However, there are not a few students who do not have this good foundation, so it is natural to have this question. The Buddha said; Everything is karma.

So, when we meditate and our legs hurt, it means that we have this karma, what should we do if we have this karma? If you want to practice Buddhism, you have to get rid of this karma! How can I get rid of it?

The only way is to endure hardship. The Buddha said; Karma follows you like a shadow. It can never be shaken off, and it can only be eliminated by enduring it.

There is a rule that when your leg hurts in meditation, it hurts for a while, and if it hurts for a while, you will lose a piece of karma, and if you can endure it, you will lose another piece of karma.

We must have the tenacity and faith to endure great hardships! If you can cultivate easily, you will be full of Buddhas, so if you are a true Buddha cultivator, then work hard! As long as you can get rid of this karma, your legs will definitely be very comfortable during meditation, and I wish you to make progress on the path of cultivating Buddhahood!

Wouldn't it be old if it wasn't stiff?

Suffering can reduce sinful karma, so it is normal for the leg to hurt, it hurts for a while, and then it hurts again.

If you can really settle down, or get close to it, it won't hurt very quickly, otherwise it won't work.

This is something that requires visualization to help you get into meditation, to settle down, to get into meditation and then gradually to settle down, which is not easy.

But it's okay to train for a while...

1.Whether it's late at night or during the day, as long as there is a quiet environment and you are not disturbed, it is good to meditate!

2.During the meditation process, after adjusting the posture, do not move the shanty, otherwise it will be difficult to persevere, and your legs will hurt. If you sit down and don't move, you will be relatively stable. It is normal for the legs to be numb after getting off the seat, and it will gradually become lighter as the kung fu deepens.

3.This question varies from person to person, some people can sit for more than an hour at first, and some people can't sit at all. In short, don't force it, and if you can tolerate it, go on. If you can't stand it, take it gradually!

In addition, I would like to remind one more important aspect. As the meditation time increases, many realms may appear, such as seeing, hearing, smelling, feeling, whatever it is, all of them are treated as illusions and ignored, without worry, without joy, without rejection, and without greed. If you can stick to this principle, just go and sit.

If you can't, you have to wake up as soon as possible, otherwise it is easy to have problems! You can memorize these things that need to be chained with cheats repeatedly, or write them in a conspicuous place to remind yourself!

1. The first reason: it doesn't hurt if it is general, but it doesn't work if it hurts. This is explained from the knowledge of the Chinese meridians, although the Buddhist meditation on the surface seems to have little to do with Chinese medicine, in fact, it is very close, and meditation does not deliberately require luck, but the principle of meditation and the principle of Chinese medicine meditation have a lot in common, so the effect of meditation is very consistent with Chinese medicine meditation.

2. The second reason: this is the reason why the heart has not calmed down and the body has not relaxed, and then because once the leg hurts, the consciousness will notice, so it will feel particularly painful.

3. The third reason: In fact, it is the kung fu of meditation. When the effort is deep, this feeling will be skipped.

Pain and comfort are mainly caused by the discriminating mind of the sixth consciousness, and what we often call "feeling" is itself a disturbing problem. Kung fu to a certain extent, it will be a little better, and it takes a process. I wish you good luck at six o'clock! Amitabha!
