It has been said that one who explores the doors of meditation never returns unsatisfied. What must be in it?
Is meditation simply being alert? So that you can notice your thoughts, that you usually don't, before they have a chance to act through you, and take control?
Is mediation simply getting back the control, which is doled out to the thoughts, emotions behind thoughts?
Is meditation simply losing your identitity and dissolving yourself in nothingness?
Is meditation shifting your consciousness into nothingness, formlessness from the world of forms?
How can that help?
Is meditation a state of pure dis-passion, non-attachment to whatever it may be that you are doing? That is you don't care about the outcome, you just do every bit of the thing as an end in itself.
Meditation isn't easy to grasp as a concept.
The only way is to experiece it, by attempting it. It may or may not happen.
Closing yours eyes, and bringing awareness between thoughts. Increasing this awareness gradually. Anchoring on breath again and again if thoughts wash your awareness. Until thoughts lose their powerful force. And the force of awareness becomes stronger and stronger. To the point when there is just supreme awareness. Into all that is. Just all that is. This is home. This is where time ceases to exist or stops.
