Meditation Happens When

Meditation is not something that we do for brief periods, in isolation, with closed eyes, repeating a mantra, or emptying the mind. It is not something that we do at all. It is something that happens when we drop our judgements and our attempts to control. It is a condition of openess from which we are able to perceive the heart of truth. Meditation happens when we observe without choice and without any wish to change what we observe. It is a state of clarity and purity, without which we cannot come to a complete understanding of ourselves.

Book of Life - Jiddu Krishnamurti
