Human beings are now born to struggle with their fruitless lives. People are facing all sorts of pressure in their whole life periods. Layoff, mortgage payment, arguments, and scolding from family members, all these are pushing you to the limit. What a stressful life! Our brains are so stuffed up that many times we may have to cry out: “Leave me alone!” However, there is no yourself in this world. No place, even your bathroom, is peaceful enough to enjoy.

Furthermore, for worse, the world is full of sad news. People are dying of war; of car accidents; of diseases; or of no reason. Cover stories in daily newspapers are always sad if not dull. Our feelings are vulnerable and fluctuate with the constantly changing environment. Unfortunately, most of time we are depressed, sometimes deeply.

Get out of it! Man. There IS a way to get out of all these arresting things. Meditation is the way.

There are all sorts of books about meditation.
