Vipassana Lesson Number 1

It must have been Day 3 of my 10 day Vipassana retreat in Sweden in the Spring of 2019, when I heard the voice of my consciousness speaking to me louder and clearer than ever before: 

"Stop judging other people to distract yourself from your own misery".

It sounded true, like my own voice but just in my head, and it made absolute sense.  
At that point I had been sitting for 3 days in a row for about 10 hours a day, in slots of one hour, in silent meditation when I caught my mind constantly commenting on this or that person's looks, mood, expression and even possible thoughts... 

That was my first glimpse of awakening to the reality of my own ego as well as of my consciousness.

Now I recall that experience as my Vipassana Lesson Number 1. 

August 17th 2023 – I am starting my Blog

Today I decided to start this open communication with you all.


As many of you already know, I have been practicing music and meditation for over a decade now, so I want to invite you to share some thoughts and to ask any questions you might have about music, meditation or simply about our journey here, as human beings on this planet.

Love and blessings,

Carmelo/Karma Nesci

 Reminders of the day: 

 

Become aware of the illusion of separation 

Become aware of the marvelous planet we're living on 

Become aware of the proportions of the continents and the sizes of your thoughts 

Become aware of the mirror that each one of us is to each other 

Become aware of what you attract and allow into your life 

Become aware of the difference between a corn field and a slaughter house 

Become aware of what you use your energy for 

 

Love & Blessings,
