You can't meditate with the tv on!. lol Meditation is all about clarity, peace, and relaxation!. You can't have that with a tv on!. It's not going to be the most entertaining thing in the world because its about feeling inner peace!. Keep trying, and you'll eventually get the hang of it!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I believe "quiet" is the sole purpose for meditating!.!.!.

Relax!.!.breathe!.!.be serene, you can't do that with the tv on!.
Meditation is an art form used to detach your mind from the noisy distraction we call the world so that you may immerse yourself in the serenity of your own calm self!.

Meditation takes practice!.!.!.keep trying and don't watch TV while your doing it!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

watching fighting while meditating kinda conflicts - meditation is supposed to relax you, you are able to let your mind go and NOT focus on anything!.
Try listening to music instead - something soothing, with no lyrics, or with lyrics in a language you don't speakWww@Answer-Health@Com

Meditation is about being completely aware and intune!. Zen teaches that enlightenment can come from anything!.

So i guess if you watch Tivo while in a meditative mind set its fine!.!.!. But it still seems to defy the point to me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can't meditate and listen to anything in the background!. You just are not reaching the ultimate state of meditation!. Some people can't do it!. I know I can't!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

watching tivo kind of defeats the purpose of meditating!. Maybe you should just watch tivo!. Meditation isn't for everybody!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The whole point of meditating is to relax the body, so I guess it SHOULD be okay!. But its usually better to meditate without distractions like tv!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
