so here so the role of meditation here which is to abide in this zero position which is letting go of everything it's a surrendered position having nothing in my teaching I call it having nothing knowing nothing and being nobody that's that's the meditative position see because if I close my like that and I let go of everything and you do the same thing we're going to end up in exactly the same place so if I do that and you we're going to end up in exactly the same place we're going to have the same experience we're going to end up in exactly the same place and we we're all we're both going to be empty-handed for the same reasons see so spiritual freedom and soul Freedom come from letting go of everything not letting go of a particular thing if there's something that's bothering you if there's something particular that's troubling you psychologically and emotionally right and you try to let go of that thing that's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about letting go of everything including that thing but not only that thing so if you want to know what meditation is all about it's not about it's not really about any particular technique if you understand what it means to let go of everything then you're going to know everything you need to know about meditation but then the meditation is actually serious it's not a relaxation exercise then meditation is not it's not a relaxation exercise it's kind of a fundamental position in relationship to life it's an existential position in relationship to life it's a moral ethical philosophical and spiritual position you're taking in relationship to the cosmos in relationship to reality eternity everything you understand it's not a relaxation exercise understand my point context is everything one person can be sitting and the other person can be sitting and one person's letting go of everything they're letting go of everything and the other person is just trying to overcome a little bit of psychological and emotional anxiety they're little worried because their wedding's coming up and they're feeling a little nervous and they're both sitting down at the river you wouldn't know you look at them you wouldn't know the difference so for one person one person it's just a relaxation exercise the other person is kind of you know merging with the cosmos so it really has nothing to do with technique as much as it do has has to do with the how big the Embrace of the process is so whenever you talk to people about letting go of everything they get very nervous if you talk to anybody whenever you talk to people about letting go of everything they get very nervous and they get frightened and they feel very insecure that's understandable but the point is if you you should face it face it you want to you want to know you want to know what it's like to let go of everything you want thing is you want to get in the habit of knowing what it would be like what it is like so meditation is the posture of freedom in relationship to life it's the posture of Freedom it's the position of Freedom it's not a physical posture by the way it's an existential position you understand in relationship to life it's a position of Freedom so if if you're a free person that's the position that you're taking in relationship to life itself posture of freedom it's a deep inner existential position you're taking in relationship to life which means zero and once again in the teaching of evolutionary life it's not the goal that's not the end point but it's the means to an higher end right unless the letting go is taking place the higher development cannot occur does that make sense unless you let go you cannot you cannot evolve in a higher and deeper way and that's that's the whole point so then the question is the question is what what would it be like to let go of everything that's what you want to think about so when you're meditating what you do what you should be doing is letting go of everything that's what meditation is and letting go of everything is the posture of Freedom it's the position of freedom if you've let go of everything you're free what would it be like to let go of everything and you try it and then you want to do it that you're doing it within context here that's you want to let go of everything to go want to go back to before the beginning go back to before the beginning so before the beginning means before you had any problems to let go of well that's what it means there was a time that you did that you had no problems to let go of was there not huh before you were born right so before you were born means before anything happened before you before you were born you didn't have all these problems to overcome isn't that right so you just think about it for a minute so that's the IDE ideas to go back to before the beginning
