dear feelow meditator, how long have you been meditating...? sometimes it takes some people longer than others to progress depending on your kamma. i meditated for at least 18 months before i progressed anywhere that i could say was useful. thoughts are part of clinging to an imaginary self that is fuelled by desire.. if you are serious about meditation you will see all your problems as a way to learn when they change...
While meditating, it is quite common to fall asleep, because that is the purpose of meditation, to silence the mind. When we try to silence the mind again and again, there are chances that we fall asleep. But that does not help us in quieting the mind. Therefore what is the way to avoid falling asleep in meditation? It's trying to meditate after we wake up from a good sleep. We have already finished sleeping and therefore the mind is not sleeping any more. Then you try to contemplate, try to meditate, reduce the bombarding of thoughts, and as you slow down the mind, you introspect and you try to make the monkey, which is the mind, into a silent monk. Then you realize the Truth.
