when doing meditation there's a lot of thing will be shown.
from what i know they will not tell you what they seen!
is this true?

If it's true then, I wan to ask, how many of you have reach that level not what you seen?
If it's false then, what have you seen?

Thanks

A blind man cannot ask another blind man what colour is.

So anything a person finds, he has to verify with his teacher.  That if the teacher is competent and well versed in the Dhamma. It's useless for him to tell you what he has seen.  It will only give rise to more speculation, which defeats the purpose of meditation anyway.

what i understand from your answer is that in practicing buddhism one must have a guru/teacher?
guru/teaching also means that one must join some type of organisation rite?

That was my approach. So what do you want to know?

Well that the problem, as normal ppl i'm rojak in everything and can't even diff.
btw taoism vs buddhism not that it's a problem.

on reason of my own.
