“Meditation does not require any application of the mind or use of effort.”
Love.
Meditation does not require any application of the mind
or use of effort.
It descends upon you as effortlessly as sleep.
You cannot try to sleep,
nor can you try to meditate.
On the contrary,
every effort hinders its smooth and silent coming.
There is no place in it for action or aggression –
and action is aggressive.
Meditation is passive receptivity.
Mind is aggressive,
meditation is passive.
Be passive
and receptive
and open
and vulnerable
and WAIT.
The real miracle happens through waiting.
The moment that waiting is total
there is happening,
and – THE EXPLOSION.
