Цитата:
When we used to have the Bronx class on Monday nights in the Temple of Enlightenment, Rev. Ji Ru would teach and lead us in meditation for the last 30-45 minutes. I distinctly remember someone asking that very same question about feeling sleepy/falling asleep during mediation, and the Abbot's response was that sleepiness during meditation was one of the "evils".   |
sinking mind.
i think it's best to just not meditate if you're sleepy. find some time when your not as drained to practice.
of course you can try to train like adrian described but i think it takes a fair amount of discipline to begin with to try and be mindful of the process of falling asleep without actually falling asleep.
