Meditation refers to the incontrovertible fact of existence whose whole measure can only be taken by itself. That existence is what we are. That existence is the only existence there is. Meditation is a freedom for which no practice can prepare us. Meditation is an impenetrable mystery, beyond understanding because it is not an object and cannot be known as one.
Meditation is the very fact of life, so immense that only silence can approach.
Meditation is not a means to anything. It is the end of all such becoming as our simple-minded flesh and bones could want. When we reach this end that is meditation, a new life begins. It is not our life, not the life we used to name with our name and carry around like a trophy of rare achievement but life itself, flashing through what used to be us. Meditation is life without name, without form.
