Glorifying Distrust In The Name Of Meditation or Anxiety Stopping Gimmicks

We just want to save our a$$(self-image) and sleep comfortably

there is no water
yet we are trying hard to drink
the drinking posture is in full form
but no water
what a waste of an effort
same with stupid advices-
regarding breathing deeply or hardly-
in meditation
yes we try hard
we give it all
we aren’t losers, after all-
but one simple problem
there are no breaths to be breathed
yet we are foolishly trying
breathing hard and deep as possible
and what could be more of a distrustful posture
than someone trying to deep breathly or whatever
rather than have the courage or trust-
to let breath find us in our-
“I won’t breathe” posture (if that is the case)
rather than messing it up
out of distrust
and thereby preventing
spontaneous self-healing capacity of our body;
stop glorifying distrust and ignorance
when breaths find you
you will find breathing too
that is you will be surprised
and gain confidence in your own ability
we can feel it in our bones
not in our opinionated heads
not in some artificial tools, skills, and tricks
same with recovering wholeness
yet we won’t risk
we would rather preffer stupidity
and excuses to persist in lying.
