Abstract

The postmodern era is characterized by a consumistic attitude. This can even concern the field of meditation, where we observe a consumerist trend. This is somehowe a parodox because mindfulness is not something to possess. The element of fascination for oriental symbols restricts even more consciousness: the practitioner has the illusion of expanding awareness but he will not. In this text we propose simple and radical forms for daily practice, without goals but diligently conducted.
