So, To Meditate Is To Purge The Mind Of Its Self-centered Activity. And If You Have Come This Far In Meditation, You Will Find There Is Silence, A Total Emptiness. The Mind Is Uncontaminated By Society; It Is No Longer Subject To Any Influence, To The Pressure Of Any Desire. It Is Completely Alone, And Being Alone, Untouched It Is Innocent. Therefore There Is A Possibility For That Which Is Timeless, Eternal, To Come Into Being. This Whole Process Is Meditation.

By Completely I Mean With The Totality Of Your Mind And Heart, Not A Fragment Of It.
