Meditation
interrupts the endless feedback loops between consciousness and
language, between consciousness and being . . . opening a space, a
pause, a higher order function of attentive compassion. In practice, one
learns to accept finitude, mortality, and the great ending, and in
practice, one learns to cultivate the patience, compassion, and peace
that lead to freedom.
