Meditation is not a process of learning how to meditate; it is the very inquiry into what is meditation. to inquire into what is meditation, the mind must free itself from what it has learnt about meditation, and the freeing of the mind from what it has learnt is the beginning of meditation.

It’s wrong to hate. it always has been wrong and it always will be wrong! it’s wrong in america, it’s wrong in germany, it’s wrong in russia, it’s wrong in china! it was wrong in two thousand b.c., and it’s wrong in nineteen fifty-four a.d.! it always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong!

It turned out this man worked for the dalai lama. and she said gently-that they believe when a lot of things start going wrong all at once, it is to protect something big and lovely that is trying to get itself born-and that this something needs for you to be distracted so that it can be born as perfectly as possible.

Meditation is the most extraordinary thing if you know how to do it, and you cannot possibly learn from anybody; and that's the beauty of it. it isn't something you learn, a technique, and therefore there is no authority. therefore if you will learn about yourself, watch yourself, watch the way you walk, the way you talk, how you eat, what you say, the gossip, the hate, the jealousy. if you are aware of it without any choice, all that is part of meditation, and as you go, as you journey, as that movement goes, all that movement is meditation. then that movement is endless, timeless.

So, in the infinitely nobler battle in which you are engaged against error and wrong, if ever repulsed or stricken down, may you always be solaced and cheered by the exulting cry of triumph over some abuse in church or state, some vice or folly in society, some false opinion or cruelty or guilt which you have overcome! and i beseech you to treasure up in your hearts these my parting words: be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity.
