Timeframes for the Practices and Signs of Assimilation
Below you will find links to charts giving the approximate timeframes and signs of assimilation for each practice presented in Wake Up To Your Life. These time frames are for students who are doing these meditations for the first time and haven't had much previous exposure to meditation. To make a meditation practice part of you:
- learn the meditation technique so that it is clear to you how to do it
- develop proficiency so that you have a sense of making a consistent effort even though distractions arise
- practice it consistently until you develop understanding at the emotional level, not just intellectual
To work deeply, discuss your practice with a teacher on a regular basis.
Here are the links to each chart. See the Study and Practice Guide for more detailed information on each section.
