The Essentials of meditation

Mediation has a few essential things in it, whatever the method, but those few essentials are necessary in every method. The first is a relaxed state: no fight with the mind, no control of the mind, no concentration. Secound, just  watch the relaxed  awareness whatever is going  on, with out  any interference - just watching the mind, silently, without any judgement , evaluation.

 These are the three things: Relaxation, watching, No Judgement, and slowly, slowly a great silence descends over you . All movement  within  you ceases. You are, but there is no sense of ' I am '- just a pure space . There are over  one hundred and twelve methods of meditation.
