When meditating, use observation as your guide. Observe any feelings that arise with ease, freedom, and openness.
If you can observe in this way, then inner guidance will always be with you. No matter where you go, the power of this observation can always provide you with guidance and clarity.
In meditation, it's not about eliminating thoughts or not allowing thoughts to arise, but about understanding that these thoughts come from our consciousness.
The root of suffering begins with consciousness and then leads to desires, losses, hurting others, or hurting oneself, and so on.
All these problems originate from consciousness that has not been clearly observed, which is to say, thoughts.
Therefore, the true essence of meditation is to use observation as your guide. Without this observation, all our efforts will be in vain.
This is the key point to end and stop suffering.
