Can we combine two or more meditation techniques ? You can combine as many techniques as you like, but dont combine them with Vipassana. Vipassana is unique technique, and combining it with anything else will not help you. It may even harm you. Keep Vipassana pure. Other techniques only give a veneer to the surface of the mind. But Vipassana makes a deep surgical operation; it takes out complexes from the depth of the mind. If you combine it with any other technique, you are playing a game which may be very harmful to you. Isnt it selfish to forget about the world, and just to sit and meditate all day? Meditation as a means to acquiring a healthy mind is not at all selfish. When your body is sick, you enter a hospital to recover health. One doesnt say, Oh, Im being selfish. One knows that it is not possible to live a proper life with a sick, wounded body. Or one goes to a gymnasium to make ones body stronger. Similarly, one doesnt go to a meditation center for the whole life, but simply to make the mind more healthy. And a healthy mind is most necessary to live ones day to day life in a way that is good for oneself and others - SNG!!!
