Mind spelunking – 10 day silent meditation

So in a couple of hours I head to the Blue Ridge Mountains to a camp ground where i’ll spend ten days attending a silent meditation put on by the mid-atlantic Vipassna meditation organization. Anxious, excited nervous – ten days without a cell phone, computer, no books, nothing to write on, none of the comforts of home and surrounded by strangers in silence. I will have nothing to do but explore my own mind. Its like spelunking into my thoughts and the dark depths within.

I packed modest loose fitting clothes (white tee shirts and sweat pants) as we were instructed to. Here’s a pic of my bed as I’m preparing to pack.

I will return Sept 10, till then take care my friends.
