Meditation is the basis of a life of splendid health, untiring energy, unfailing love, and abiding wisdom. It is the foundation of that deep inner peace for which eery one of us longs. No human being can ever find lasting satisfaction in money or success or prestige or anything else the world can offer. What we are really searching for is not something that satisfies us temporarily, but a permanent state of joy.
