Meditation: The Joyful Art of Persistence

A lot of nonsense has been written about meditation. Most books on the subject get the reader nowhere, for they do not explain the process of meditation.

Many people tell me they cannot meditate. This seems to me a bit like saying they cannot play the piano after one attempt. Meditation, as in every art or expression, requires constant practice for perfect results. So it is with meditation. If we practice this habit with joy, we perfect it as an art.
