Illumination

November 18, 2007 at 12:08 pm (Meditation) ()

Meditation is very simple. Nothing but consciousness. It is not chanting, using the mantra or a rosary. Meditation simply means transforming your unconsciousness into consciousness. Normally, 1/10 of our mind is conscious, 9/10 is unconscious. Only a thin layer has light; otherwise, the whole house is in darkness.

The challenge is therefore to let the small light grow so much that the whole house is flooded by light. When the house is full of light, then life is a miracle. Everything, even the mundane becomes extraordinary and sacred. Ordinary stones look as beautiful as diamonds.

The moment you are illuminated, the whole existence is illuminated. If you are dark, then the whole existence is dark. It all depends on you.
