This training is like learning to play an instrument. It's no good practising the guitar all Sunday and leaving it for the rest of the week. You simply forget everything you've learnt and every Sunday you have to start all over again. So it is with meditation practice. It is the continuity of effort that eventually brings the instrument of the mind under control.
Most teachers advise two times in the day.
Once in the early morning to set the mind right for the day and once in the evening to clear the mind of the day's agitation and secure a restful sleep. This page is designed to be viewed with Georgia font available from Microsoft.
