Hello! Thank you for writing this and sharing your experience in other posts. Sorry if I missed the AMA window or if you've answered this elsewhere.
What meditation technique do you credit with allowing you to reach stream entry?
You talk about following the breath and arriving at mushin elsewhere. You also mention TMI and MCTB. I started out in zen, counting and then following the breath and then (attempting) shikantaza. I've also experimented with noting practice. Given the importance of consistency, what would you recommend? I understand everyone is different and I need to find what works for me. Guidance from a noble friend is always helpful.
