A wide range of physical and mental experiences may arise in the course of this practice. Some of them may be inspiring, for example, when you feel you’ve broken through to a profound mystical insight, while others may be troubling or simply weird. While many Westerners love to report their meditative experiences to others, this runs against the grain of traditional Buddhist practice. Tibetans have an old saying: If you fill a gourd with just a little water and shake it, it makes a lot of noise. But if you fill it to the brim and shake it, it makes no sound. Generations of seasoned contemplatives have found that making any claims about one’s spiritual achievements—even if they are true—creates obstacles to one’s practice. These are private matters, and if you discuss them with anyone, it should be in private with your own spiritual mentor.
