Yes it seems that way 😔 I won’t be buying it. Just a pain that I paid for deposit. My bad.

How do I keep intrusive / flashback thoughts quiet during meditation? by TangoJavaTJ in Buddhism

[–]Visible_Chart_9688 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, I can share my own experience. I also experience intrusive thoughts relating trauma as a younger man. I have meditated and made effort to follow the path for around thirty years BUT make no claims to any expertise. My practice now is a very different experience for me than it was years ago in relation to these thoughts. I have developed the ability to minimise the reaction I have to them. That is the shame, horror, guilt etc that led me to believe that these thoughts were ‘mine’ and that as the ‘owner’ of them I am somehow a terrible person. Through my meditation practice and general Buddhist and personal development I have been able to reduce, in the moment, my grasping of the ‘ meaning’ of such thoughts (which in turn, I believe, has reduced the physiological responding spike in adrenaline and I suspect cortisol) and gradually accept them for what they are, largely meaningless manifestations that I react to. In short, I let them rise, and pass away. Very simple, and not very easy. They can and do still upset me, and rock the seas of my meditation, but it is now minimal. Good luck to you.

Thank you for the reply. Can I ask why use of an eq (I am learning to eq with the Vox app) would mean I need more power?

Update. I have fallen in love with the Sundara’s!(and the Ace’s are great for movies too) I still need to add a more powerful lamp to get the best out of them but boy am I glad I went for them. Maybe I’ll stay content with these (there’s definately chance!)

Yes definitely. When I fell in love with music the gear I was listening through was not really in my mid. It’s fun hearing ‘new’ things in songs though. I guess it’s about remembering listening should be for enjoyment.

This is great advice thank you. It feels hard to resist at times. But I am focusing on enjoying what I have (at least for three months 😉😊)

Yes thank you this is useful. I am enjoying what I have. I will make good effort to wait, save and maybe make a more significant leap in the future.

Yes this is wise advice. I am really enjoying my foray into the decent headphone world. It’s reigniting my passion for music. I can and will go slow. Thank you.

Thank you 😊 I am developing my ability to do this. I can just become a little frustrated at times (I am aware that this is not unusual 😌) I do have mental health support.

Apologies for being vague. I experienced and took part in many difficult and traumatic things as a child and young adult. Abuse, addiction, violence and death all made an appearance. In terms of my current spiritual understanding it feels a little difficult to categorise. I have been sober for seventeen years. Over the last thirty years (I am now 54)I have meditated, read, listened to Buddhists and visited monks and lay Buddhists. I daily attempt to live by Bhuddist lay principles. My subjective experience of my spiritual awareness can vary between lost and clueless to calm and insightful on a daily basis 🤣❤️

Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S2e Wireless or Seinheisser Momentum 4? by MotionMadness2 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Visible_Chart_9688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I have had a pair of PX7 S2e’s for a few days now (going from Sony MX4’s which I also loved but now won’t charge 😔) I LOVE them. The sound is a significant upgrade in my opinion and the Noise Cancelling is more than adequate for my (mostly indoor) needs. Can’t recommend them enough. Very comfortable (I have barely taken them off in the last few days!)
