Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know
well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the
path that leads to wisdom.
Meditation is considered an essential practice for those who seek
self-knowledge and self-mastery. Why? Basically, meditation brings
awareness of how our minds work. Over time, we become watchers, able to
detach from the thoughts and emotions that play out in our minds.
With this detachment, we gain the freedom to choose whether or not to
act on our thoughts and emotions. We learn to distinguish between
objective reality and our mental and emotional dramas.
Only in quiet waters things mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a
quiet mind is adequate perception of the world.
