“Meditation is the emptying of the mind of all the things that the mind has put together. If you do that -perhaps you won't, but it doesn't matter, just listen to this- you will find that there is an extraordinary space in the mind, and that space is freedom. So you must demand freedom at the very beginning, and not just wait, hoping to have it at the end. You must seek out the significance of freedom in your work, in your relationships, in everything that you do. Then you will find that meditation is creation.” IfsMindEndsMatterTogetherWaitingSpaceMeditationCreationDemandExtraordinarySignificanceOur RelationshipJust Listen Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti
