Meditation is the beginning of order. Meditation is awareness of the movement of thought as the ‘me’. Meditation is total, absolute inward freedom in which there is not a single image; freedom from all the things that man has put together as reality. Then the natural sequence is the flowering of silence. In that silence is that quality of energy you have never touched before, and that is the transforming factor, the real creative movement of life. In that silence, a great many other things go on because, in that silence, the brain becomes orderly. It will function when necessary; otherwise, it is completely quiet. In this silence, thought has no place, and therefore there is no time. That silence cannot be measured. In that quiet stillness, that which is not describable, which is nameless, which is not the product of time and thought, is that movement. That is the creation.
