Former Buddhist Monk, thank you for posting that. It's an interesting read because it makes me think meditation is about removing yourself from you and looking at what is going on in you. I see "attraction" as not a good or bad thing, but both. Your mind can be attracted to bad I believe because it causes you stress, just like attraction to good does just the opposite. It's wonderful insight to see how I can deal with OCD by introspection and what not, but maybe I am seeing this wrong? I believe some thoughts are good and cause you happiness, but sometimes we have thoughts that we don't want and they torture us, and by allowing it we make it worse, and acceptance is key there.
