Had a conversation with a friend about meditation last night and remembered my notes from researching how it works, how thoughts arise, why do I get into loops, etc.
I found a very good structure in TheravÄda Buddhism, but I struggled with the terminology and mapping it to my rationalistic model of thinking.
This resulted in a very fruitful session with ChatGPT some time ago, and then a good set of notes, that actually helped me understand whats happening.
Now I've dusted this up and put it together to share with friends, hope it is useful for somebody.
