In the Quran (2:21) we find: People, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, so that you may be mindful of Him who spread out the earth for you and built the sky; who sent water down from it and with that water produced things for your sustenance. Do not, knowing this, set up rivals to God.
A dear friend of mine (a Lutheran minister) suggests that we can tell who we worship by looking at our check books. Meditation is that practice of turning away from "our check books" and turning toward that which does not come nor go. In that practice we find amazing freedom!
peace,
