Pardon my lack of participation lately. I have been attending the temple fortnightly and been asking questions about Buddhism... which I believe yoga stems from [Hinduism/Buddhism]. I believe something that was important in the teachings was when I asked of awareness and a 'quiet mind'. I believe the 'quiet mind' aspect was very important to WILDing - when I WILD'd 'by accident', it was always when I was in a meditative trance where everything would only be observed.
The answer I received was in relation to letting go, attachment, and being detached.
I haven't attempted any WILDs lately, but I will after my final exam of the next two months, tomorrow. Hopefully after things settle down with school, I will dedicate more time into the practices.
