Answer this question to the best of your ability:
Is it common to experience intense waves or floods of energy during Access Concentration?
Yes, it is quite common to experience intense waves or even a flood of energy running through the body during Access Concentration. These energetic sensations are known as Piti (sense of energy) and can be quite powerful. They may arise as a natural part of the deep concentration and focus practiced at this level, and should not be considered a cause for concern. Rather, they signify progress in your meditation practice.
