A Moment in Meditation

In the pre-dawn hours in Rishikesh, as I sit on the banks of the Ganges in meditation, silence surrounds me. My mind lets go of it’s tendency to think, remember, problem solve. I focus on my breath and start my journey within. It is a journey without movement. It is the one-pointed focus of attention and awareness. Gradually the silence within is more profound and deeper than the silence that surrounds me, and in that silence I dwell.
