Many meditation techniques attempt to imprison or cage the mind in order to quieten it. Such cages include: focusing on the breath, reciting mantras, and disregarding thoughts. While these techniques may temporarily quieten the mind they will not lead to lasting Peace.
Lasting Peace comes with Wisdom. The Wisdom that comes only by sitting in Silence expecting nothing. What is the nature of such Wisdom? What are the ‘keys’ to which Hafiz is referring?
To God belongs everything,
God is in control of all things,
Everything in this world is temporary.
To God belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth, and all matters are controlled by God. [Quran 3:109]
Ahhhhhhh the Wisdom that brings lasting Peace.
peace on you,
bob
