Meditation - The Mind Turned Inward

meditation is the mind turned inward, looking critically at our thoughts and realizing we are not those thoughts. Meditation applies the scientific method to inner experience using a century's old, empirically tested model of how the mind works. The contemplative path sees no limit to eliminating disturbing patterns of thought and cultivating wholesome ones. Enlightenment is the point where one has attained stable concentration, boundless joy, unlimited compassion and the wisdom to most effectively benefit others.
