“The very aim of meditation is firstly subjugation of the mind, so that it can no longer be an obstacle to a clear vision of the Supreme cliché. Secondly, it is the full silencing of that mind, so that consciousness becomes similar to the mirror-like surface of a quiet lake or pool. I can see the real Reflection of Truth in it then, but not otherwise.” MindI CanRealConsciousnessVisionClearMeditationQuietReflectionMirrorsAimObstaclesSurfaceSupremeLakesPoolSubjugationClear VisionSilencing Book:Meditation: An Outline for Practical Study Source: Meditation: An Outline for Practical Study

But when it is out of place as an activity there still should be the large and quiet space in the consciousness where it lives quiescent.
