The Importance of Meditation

[Cobrien]

I am beginning to see meditation as a sort of mental exercise.  Where the body is naturally not constantly active and thus requires motion to exercise, the mind is ALWAYS active, and so exercise for it comes in the form of stilling that activity and maintaining stillness.

Silence is ambient stillness to me~

I think of meditation and prayer as a time to tune the creative forces of the collective psyche and individualize further by developing the spirit.
