Is there a group here which discusses Meditation? I have searched and

[ellenrr]

found the Buddhism group, but haven't found a group which is for meditation in general.
I want to make sure I haven't missed it,
bec. I keep accidently coming across interesting groups (eg Anthropology, Atheism) which I never knew existed.)

thanks.

1. I don't see one but since there is one for Pastafarians why not?

This link to Ask the Administrators on how to start a group. I will be one of your 10 if you decide to start.

9. wow, I am excited by such support...

I will "toss it up" as the link says.
There are already almost 10 people here who agree.

I want to word it in a way which will draw the most people, so all of you, pls help me out.

for ex, those of you who said include mindfulness,
I completely agree! That is what I am studying now.

But I don't want to limit it to mindfulness.

In your mind, if I say "meditation" does that not include mindfulness?
Do you think I should say "meditation and/or mindfulness group"

It seems to me that meditation includes mindfulness, mindfulness is one form of meditation, - but maybe some disagree?

Should the proposal be "tossed out" in the GD forum?
other forums?
definitely I would say in the Buddhism forum.
maybe the religion and spirituality forum...

Help me word the subject line--
"Proposal for new group: Meditation/Mindfulness"
?

and then we have to say some thing about the purpose of the group?
why there should be should a group...

thanks!

10. I can write up a little blurb about the benefits of meditation...

is that what should go in the group description/purpose?

How long?

I will look at some other groups, I can't recall if there even are group descriptions...

Can you help me out with what should go in the proposal to the administrators.
