Off and on. You know the key thing about meditation is doing it. And I cannot control my lack of discipline and if I am really wacko(a lot) I can barely sit 2 minutes. More on this in chatting I am sure. BUT SOME OF MY BEST MOMENTS OF PEACE HAVE BEEN IN MEDITATION using buddhist 'type' thinking/introspection, etc.
