What is Meditation?
Sri Chinmoy writes that meditation is the tool to try and reach a higher state of consciousness - A realm beyond the domain of thought.
" When we meditate, we do not think at all. The aim of meditation is to free ourselves from all thought. Thought is like a dot on a blackboard. Whether it is good or bad, it is there. Only if there is no thought whatsoever can we grow into the highest reality."
- Sri Chinmoy [1. Sri Chinmoy, Fifty Freedom-Boats To One Golden Shore, Part 2, Agni Press, 1974. ]
