“I want to talk about practice, different kinds of practices. We already talked about meditation a little bit. It’s probably good to have maybe three or four practices in your pocket, so to speak, that you can use.
Prayer, for example, is really a form of meditation. All spiritual practice is a form of meditation practice. I mention at the beginning of Chapter Seven in Ten Paths that meditation and meditation practice are not the same thing and that in colloquial speech it’s okay to blur it a little bit. But it is an important distinction.
The truth is really I am meditation. Who I am is that conscious relationship with what is, and that’s true, in essence, for everyone. Practice is dipping into that and being that, touching into that in a way that reminds us who we are.”
