"meditation with a preconceived purpose or notion is counter to the practice of meditation" .... which includes expecting to feel positive after finishing. Just go with it, day by day.

JulietsMan, what if we feel neutral after we finish?

i have never heard any monk speak of seeing spirits while meditating.i think music can play a role as long as it is non intrusive.ur right the emptying of the mind is something that can be achieved but meditation with a preconceived purpose or notion is counter to the practice of meditation.ur not a noob its a good question.ur on the right track if ur practice is sincere, simple and if u feel positive result after u finish.

my opinion is thats not meditation. its called being stoned.

Quite right, I used to smoke myself a little before meditation to calm my mind (hard for me to do), it always helped. Lately though, due to personal reasons, I've been smoking alot more and now I've lost the ability to use the drug in a spiritual manner. Just hope I can get it back again.
