“Life is a ladder from the lowest to the highest. The majority of people live at the lowest rung, where we find ourselves at the time of birth. Many people think that just to be born is enough, so we go on living at the lowest rang for the whole of our life.
Birth is just the beginning of a long journey, but the majority of people die at the same spot where they were born. They have not moved a single inch. They have just vegetated between birth and death. Their life energy has remained on the same plane. It has not developed, it has not gone upwards.
They are too occupied with their own small things, so they have no time to look upwards. Life really begins only when you start moving on the higher rungs of the ladder of life.
Meditation is the only way to help you to move from the lower to the higher rungs of the ladder of life. Meditation means awareness. When you become aware of the body, you move beyond the body. Awareness means transcendence. When you become aware of the mind, you you have gone beyond the mind. And the moment that you have become aware of the heart. you have moved beyond the heart.
The body, the mind and the heart are the most fundamental planes to become aware about. When you have moved beyond these three planes, you have come to your real self. And only then does one know what life is all about.
Then one comes to know the truth of life. One comes to know that meaning of life and the greatness of life.”
