To concentrate is not to meditate, even though that is what most of you do, calling it meditation. And if concentration is not meditation, then what is?

Meditation is to be aware of what is going on - in our bodies, in our feelings, in our minds, and in the world. Each day...children die of hunger....

Please do not think we must be solemn in order to meditate. In fact, to meditate well, we have to smile a lot.

When you first start out don't set yourself a lofty goal of sitting down to meditate for twenty minutes.

Buddha has said to his disciples: Whenever you meditate, after each meditation, surrender all that you have earned out of meditation, surrender it to the universe. If you are blissful, pour it back into the universe - don't carry it as a treasure. If you are feeling very happy, share it immediately - don't become attached to it, otherwise your meditation itself will become a new process of the self. And the ultimate meditation is not a process of self. The ultimate meditation is a process of getting more and more into un-self, into non-self - it is a disappearance of the self.
