Discovering Meditation

Meer over het boek

"What I am encouraging you to do is to make your own discoveries. Forget what you have read, forget what you have heard. Just be simple and practical and find out. This can be so fascinating. If you can have the openness to learn, you can discover so much.This is meditation. Not taking anything for granted I mean, how fortunate we are, how grateful we should be that we have this experience. I call it the laboratory of mind and body. But it seems that though this mind and body are so close to us, they are in many ways so very far away.So please, generate a fascination for this, please find a taste for this, please develop a curiosity for this. Find this the most meaningful thing one can do in this life, because it is learning all the time about the thoughts, about emotions, about perception, about so many things in this world of ours." -Godwin Samararatne
