We are all accustomed to sitting alone, absorbed in own thoughts. It is easy to understand why: The affair of the heart is conducted in silence, but solitude is useful also to intelligence.
To some people, sitting alone is often misunderstood, it is an esoteric practice. It is a form of meditation in which you are meant to sit perfectly still, closing your eyes and letting go of any thoughts or distractions that may be present. If a thought enters your mind, you push it aside without judgment or censorship.
On the other hand, sitting alone doesn’t mean you are lonely, that happiness is a matter of choice. It’s not easy to sit alone and silently. When we sit alone, we just think about the past and future. Sometimes we can feel completely alone when sitting in a crowded place.
The practice is meant to teach you to let go of your conceptualisations about yourself and others around you and to experience reality in its most basic form possible. These sitting alone quotes will help you see the great not-so-greatreat sides of sitting alone as meditation and as being alone.
