Longing to read a meditation book where the author doesn't spend a fourth of the text trying to convince me awakening == "the next step in evolution."
This is such a nauseatingly modernist, bad evolutionary biology perspective. Can you just stop?

Ah nuts I’m breaking my Twitter silence again
Try Lorin Roche. Instinctive meditation. Trying to keep the meditation-geek hordes away from that dude, but also trying to avoid other extreme of not saying anything about a teacher I find valuable.

I am reading this specific book because recommended it and I trust his opinion.
Author just had the standard messianic boilerplate mixed in with good technique.
Will add Roche to my list, though!

I read Ingram way back in my teens. He was some of my earliest exposure to theory.
Did basically only Theravada and some Zen for the first several years I meditated.
That's a long time ago, though!

Some of my first memories of "huh, this shit really works" was when I started hearing intraear harmonics with every sound.
If someone said something to me, I'd hear their voice and then a faint echo an octave up.
I wasn't really well-prepared when it just kept getting weirder.
