druid got me into playing Mah Jonng solitiare on the computer. he said
it was an intuition game... and I am finding it a very enjoyable Zen
exercise, and have not surprisingly turned out to be much better at it,
than him. I just had a perfect game under 6 minutes, and winning games
under 5 minutes are not unusual... my best time is 4 minutes 6 seconds...
tho I'll not be surprised if they become a little more rare because I am
mentioning it.
I play by my gut, and I am finding it a wonderful meditation practice
in discernment and detachment from outcomes. Maj Jonng solitaire is a
simple game. There are 144 tiles .. 33patterns, 4 of each pattern that are
stacked in a wide pyramid and you have to clear away all the tiles by
matching pairs. You can only clear away tiles that have a free edge, that
are at the end of a row. If you remove the wrong pair you may get stuck
later. You cannot see the tiles that are stacked underneath.
I also find Tetris can be very trance-producing... tho not so
meditative because the game speeding up makes the ending stressful.
