Looking at a sunset, just for a second
you forget your separateness:
you are the sunset.

you have come back to your separate,
enclosed entity of the ego.
Now the mind is speaking.
- Osho
When you are eating, eat totally -

And then meditation is not separate from life.

"My life begins TODAY.
I am like a newborn.
I have what I have today;
I have my fingers, my toes,
some people in my life,
some material and financial state.

perhaps a nightmare,
perhaps a cherished memory,
but only a dream - nothing more.
I will make all decisions and actions based solely
on what I have today as a starting point."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
But what a cruel thing is war
to separate and destroy families and friends,

and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world!
- Robert E. Lee

Beyond mind, there is an awareness that is intrinsic,
that is not given to you by the outside, and is not an idea -

and disidentify yourself from it.

which makes you more joyous, fulfills you,
gives you contentment, makes your life a work of art, a beauty.
But this is possible only if the master in you is awake.
