Meditation

Let it ‘be’

Contemplation is a path that leads to the contemplation of itself – where we find what and how we are. There is no action and inaction, no striving and effort, even though everything is together. Doing is doing nothing and practicing to let things be. Sometimes it is strenuous, when the attention is distracted again and again. When thoughts and musings seem to do everything they can to distract us from mere silent observation. We find ourselves again, when we try to give the answers to any outstanding issues of everyday life, whenever a conflict comes up in our mind. Then we remember old long forgotten wounds and tears of sadness or joy are shed. In the practice of contemplation, we can look at all these memories and feelings and let them go by without being distract further.
