The purpose of meditation - III
The purpose of meditation is
personal transformation
and the meaning of transformation
is the revelation of truth.
Meaning comes from intimacy
with what surrounds us.
We cannot escape
the law of cause and effect,
because we are it.
This causes some to withdraw,
spend days in a cave or on a mountain
wearing robes made of
burlap or spider silk.
But this is not necessary.
Take a walk instead.
Hold your questions
like lanterns closely to your chest,
as you would an infant child
asleep in your arms.
This is not only possible
, it is essential.
If you find yourself alone at night
on a beach or rocky point,
facing into the wind,
let the waves wash over you.
If you find yourself
in a room with people,
hold your questions like
lanterns closely to your chest.
If you find yourself lost on the road,
let the moon guide you home.
