Has anyone used the book The Mind Illuminated by Culadasa? (self.meditation)

I find this an excellent book by the late ex-neuroscientist and meditation adept, that illustrates how the mind works and distils the core of Buddhist meditation into easy to follow steps - the medtiation practice, as always, is the challenge to progress.

I have some The Mind Illuminated guided meditation audio files created by a meditation teacher if anyone is interested.

When I look at the total scores for your comments and posts in general, it's very overwhelmingly negative but the content of your posts and comments don't seem toxic or controversial enough to warrant the negative attention they're getting.

I'm guessing that you could be the target of harassment, possibly by just one person who is using multiple accounts to downvote you.

You could ask an admin could look into it (maybe the person downvoting you is doing it from something easily traceable, like from a single IP address or private lemmy instance). Or you could create a different account and start again.

Anyhow, don't take the downvotes personally. I really doubt it's because lots of people dislike your posts and comments.

I commented on post weeks ago regarding a user who was creating many Lemmy spam communities. Perhaps this user did this.

Shame that Lemmy can't protect against this sort of behaviour (yet)

Found the accounts and banned them. I also contacted the instance admin from where most accounts originated and the instance admin of the main account.

Thanks a lot.
