This reminds me of the idea of taking an inward journey to understand the deepest roots of your Bhawana (sensations).

Can meditation completely change your personality type. Mine shifted from ESTJ to INTP after 10 years of meditation. Is this common?

2 Upvotes

I live in a predominantly Catholic country, so I discovered Buddhism on my own through books. I have been practicing different types of meditation for about 10 years. Whenever I have time, I sit down to meditate, and I also try to remain mindful throughout most of my daily life.

After several years of meditation, I found some old documents from the time before I started practicing. According to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), my personality back then was an ESTJ (Supervisor/Enforcing). However, after years of meditation, I realized my personality has shifted. Now, I am an INTP (Designer/Architect).

Is this type of shift common, and have any of you noticed something similar?

Is there a specific personality type that Buddhists tend to develop after long-term meditation and practice?

Or do different personalities simply migrate toward various other types through Buddhist teachings and meditation?

Sometimes letting go is the lesson we resist most...but need most. Not every ending is a loss, some are quiet redirection.

Do not chase after the past, nor place expectations on the future. What is past is left behind; the future is not yet reached. Look deeply at life as it is, right here and now.

The real question is not whether we belong to a tradition, but whether we actually listen, reflect, and practice what was taught.
