Q?: Is it necessary to listen to the guided audio for meditation? Will it be bad if I don’t follow the instructions of the meditation guide?
Answer: If you have mastered the method of meditation, it is best not to use music and guided audio, because sometimes with guidance, the mind will follow it deliberately.
Meditation guidance audio or meditation music is to help everyone calm down. If you are just starting to practice meditation, if you still don’t know how to meditate, or it is difficult to meditate on your own, you can use the small program "Happy" "Meditation" plays the instructor's guidance sound to help you enter a state of meditation. The purpose of the guidance sound is to make everyone feel comfortable slowly, and then adjust your mindfulness.
For example, if a boat floats in a river, the water is flowing and the boat can easily float away. If you want the boat to stay on the shore, you need to have a boat rope tied to the boat bolt on the shore, just like using silent meditation, visualization, etc. to calm your mind.
If the water is stagnant (there are no distracting thoughts in the mind), there is no need to do anything, no silent chanting, no listening. Just immerse yourself in your own tranquility.
