Who is interested in a Less Wrong Meditation Day? Will_Newsome originally proposed this possibility:
I was thinking about scheduling a Less Wrong Meditation Day, in a week or two after people get a chance to read up, where we choose a Saturday and everyone meditates for 6 hours, all starting at roughly the same time. You put social pressure on yourself by committing to report back with your experiences, and this way you can try out extended meditation without having to go through with the scary 10 day retreat. Lots of people won't be able to find time in their schedule, but I think a few people might, and if there are enough people then it could be good. I'm really interested in seeing the variance of experiences.
I'm curious about how fast Less Wrongers can progress in comparison to the general population. People can also use this opportunity to identify problems with their practice, which we can work together to solve.
I would be part of this experiment.
