I was introduced to it by a few people and books and varous stuff that I was into at the time. Experimented a lot. Got a handle on it. Started with concentration meditation.
After 6 years of that I found the other technique (we basically have 2). Shikantaza.
Used together it’s very potent. A bit too potent and trippy for me actually. After a few years wrestling with that I dropped the concentration.
Meditation. It’s a superpower
How did you start? How long have you been doing it ? What changed ?

Now I just do Shikantaza.
Been banging on it for about 30 years.
