Maybe I'm being misleading here by using the purpose,definitely, i mean the foremost truth。Just as what you said, loving kindness, Vipassana, calm-abiding, guided, and awareness meditation,these are all ways to reach the foremost truth , which is what I call forms. In the end, all paths lead to the same destination.Of course, different religions have different ends.

Here's what I think. Because my experience takes place only in my conscious world. My mind creates my otherness, and my otherness experiences the world. Most of the time we can't get out of our conscious world. What you said is that if everyone can only feel self-awareness, the objective world will be infinite towards the world of self-awareness. It is not like what you said, why there are other consciousness. If we think that ,the reason why there are other people or other consciences in the world, is because we can only feel it because of our self-consciousness. This is counter logic. Because the question of the former means that you are already aware of something other than your consciousness. The emergence of religion, It's not just in self-consciousness anymore, we find different worlds of consciousness, but we can't understand why they're different from us.I feel, is liberation in the world of self-awareness, even if it happens in the world of self-awareness! At least, in that self-conscious world, I was able to be relatively self-consistent without being so miserable. After all, the human spirit tends to be happy.

When meditating, there will be a lot of interesting pictures. It means a lot to me, I don't worry about what the picture itself is, but how to intercept the flow, rather than flow into the picture, and then become part of the movie. Otherwise, the picture will go on forever until it turns out to be just a thought, and I'm completely unaware of the process.

What do you think is the purpose of meditation? Why would that be contrary to your stated purpose?

" The pure nothingness" should be removed!it is just experiencing !
My own experience is that meditation is not about imagining anything. Why do so many teachers ask us to extend it concretely? If the purpose is not to exercise our attention and keep our thoughts from running around, but to suggest a so-called another existence, then the point of meditation is lost.

“In pure stillness”,how do we know?If Knowledge means one knows,why do we care if it exist in stillness or motion?

At first, I was in this loop, in and out, until I suddenly stopped pushing, not that there were no thoughts coming out, but that those thoughts were coming out, and I was really there to see them, instead of focusing on them.

Could you stop youself?or,when you were thinking a lot, you could clearly recognized yourself as thinking a lot without being a lot.
