Meditation is the practice of falling asleep while staying awake. When we sleep, our perceptions and sensations fade away, and we enter the dream state, followed by deep sleep. In deep sleep, we experience pure being, awareness and peace. For being, there is just itself. In meditation, we don't need to eliminate thoughts and sensations; we simply let them go and remain as the awareness that persists. We are not entities transitioning through states but eternal beings. Thoughts, images, sensations and perceptions arise and vanish, but our true nature remains unchanged. Our essence is uncolored, pure being, aware, and at peace. Meditation is abiding in this natural condition without effort, recognising that we are limitless and interconnected with all beings and things. Being, love and beauty are expressions of our shared reality.
