Step 87: The Only Way: Being Here Now

87of 108

The true state of meditation is not something that can be achieved through effort. It arrives when effort ceases. It happens when you are not there—when the doer, the striver, the seeker disappears. This is the only way: simply being, here and now.

There is no practice for this step... Simply be... Here and now... When all techniques have been used and become useless... When all effort drops... Meditation arrives... It is the blessedness of simply being... You are that... Here and now.
