Labelling the Quality of Thoughts is a meditation that I have devised. It is possible that I heard it somewhere but if so I have no recollection of that. It is an extension of the brilliant ‘noting’ or labelling practices devised by the great mediation teacher Mahasi Sayadaw.
It is an extension of the Labelling the Thoughts Meditation in which the mind needs to choose which of two categories the thought resides in. The categories are arbitrary and are designed to make the choice a frictionless experience as if there is any relevance or importance the minds of many students become bogged down in a spiral of choice.
When the technique is practiced as designed the choice is almost a guess. A light and frictionless decision. The meditation is designed to bring our attention to the point where a thought arises in the mind.
This is a recording of a live-streamed class from The Loving Awareness Meditation Course -
Three live-streamed classes each week.
