In regard to the meditation of the mystic one should remember that he is born with a meditative nature as an inner disposition, and every day, even without ever having learned any meditation, he has some way of meditation. No doubt every mystic finds a way and a guide and master who leads him forward, but all the time he is ready for guidance. The mystic never has to say that it is difficult for him to meditate; he is at home in meditation. It is his nature, his pleasure, his joy. Meditation is his life; in meditation he lives. And the meditation which lasts five or ten or fifteen minutes is to the mystic only a kind of winding up. His meditation takes place every moment of the day; there is not one moment when he is not meditating, whatever he may be doing.
