Meditation   
In Buddhism, meditation means, "effortlessly remaining in what is". This state may be brought about by calming and holding the mind, when compassion and wisdom are realized or by working with our bodies' energy channels and meditating on light forms of the Buddhas.

The most effective method, if one can do it, is the constant identification with one's own Buddha nature, and the experience of always being in a Pure Land, both of which are taught in the Diamond Way. When the oneness of the seer, what is seen and the act of seeing is unbroken, in and between the times of meditation, the goal, Mahamudra, is reached.

For more information about meditation please contact you nearest Buddhist Meditation Centre.
