Q) Would You Consider Journaling As A Form Of Meditation?
A) Anything done with your being, in the present moment, can become a meditation, even swimming, jogging, etc. Anything done without bothering about the results can give you silence and peace. If you write something down in a journal, without any ulterior motive, just to be in the present, to enjoy the present, yes, it can be meditative.
But on the other hand, if you write with an attachment to the diary, with an attachment to recording things, it is not ok. If you remain unperturbed, even if the diary gets lost, and, at the same time, when you record, if you record with totality, then things are perfectly alright. That is the scale to see.
