Good to hear from you, Panegalli.  It is good to read that you are meditating.  We may not always have the time or energy to sit for a long time.  At those times it is best to sit, even if it is for a short time, because keeping the habit up can only lead to further effort, and the fruit thereof.

Thank you all for the support

I am going through a difficult existential crisis right now. My intuition tells me I must go through this in order to unblock my heart chakra and feel deep love for all beings

Hello, Panegalli, I am sorry to here you are experiencing  crisis.  Life seems to be one crisis after another.  Perhaps you would feel like giving us some details, in case we can offer some advice.

I am not surprised that you re confused.  I have been writing here about how none of the people who are claiming enlightenment seem to be enlighten3ed.  The whole point of this forum is "we know a tree by its fruit." So, have either of these monks written knowledgeably about any of the superior fruit of the contemplative life?  Not in my experience.

So, my advice to contemplatives who are interested in meditating deeply is follow the bliss, and go as deep as you can go.
