The secret:
Here is a secret, a small but astounding revelation with big results.
Just sitting silently with some specific time limit, and with your eyes open and not closed, is this meditation.
It is as simple as that.
It gives you freedom and joy almost immediately,
that no other social activity can give.
It also gives us clarity of thoughts
and a greater understanding of life.
You have to practice it on a regular basis to know what it is,
and you have to do it yourself just as you sleep, eat or work.
Nobody else can do it for you.
Any amount of books or a guru can only guide you,
and show you the directions.
