I think some people find it helpful. I find it, I did absolutely. I just finished being an undergraduate. When I started meditating, I saw a poster on an underground to the School of meditation. And the person said, Do you want to lead a life that is simpler and happier and more fulfilling, more nourishing? Do you want to be in touch with something that never changes? I remember that. And, you know, by the way, it does work. So I found having belonging to a school and having tutors and very helpful, but that's not possible, affordable, manageable for some people. So we are all different. And what works for you is the right way as long as it's taking you in that direction. If it is making more acquisitive, more judgmental, more grasping, more unhappy, more anxious, it will not be in the right direction. But that said, we often need to go through periods of difficulty. It isn't a smooth journey. You find that there will be difficult things that you have to go through. So don't walk the difficulty or think I'm on the wrong path. There will be difficult parts of it. There is a long night that some people have to go through to find the highest levels of beingness at oneness.
