Meditation without necessary preparation sometimes leads to frustration and loss of faith for beginners in this grand science of the inner life. Against this background this book provides the readers with a collection of selected essays dealing with different aspects of meditation and other topics related to the life devoted to it. Though these essays do not exhaust all the theoretical and practical aspects of the subject, they will certainly prove to be illuminating and extremely useful for all beginners on this path.
The important thing is how much less you think of the body, of yourself as matter -- as dead, dull, insentient matter; how much more you think of yourself as shining immortal being. The more you think of yourself as spirit, the more eager you will be to be absolutely free from matter, body and senses. This is the intense desire to be free.
