Looking at the mat and cushion on the floor of the room today, it looked like a place. Another room from the room it is in.

Meditation is another room. Whether you meditate for one of the simple reasons or as part of a greater practice and program, it is another room.

Whatever room you are in, in small apartment or a mansion, there is another room that has no walls, ceiling or floor (yes, that makes it hard to sit on a mat!), encompassing everyone and everything. As a bonus, rent-free and mortgage-free.

You are not going to stay there, as you live in all the other rooms—in your house, office, stores, or whatever. But a visit to this other room, seeing all it holds and reveals, can be inspiring (literally meaning breathing in).

Visit another room.
