Meditation is critical to “clean the windows” in order to have the untainted vision needed to hold a clear overview of the mental processes. Contemplation is necessary to solidify the required motivation and intention to facilitate deeper meditative experiences.
Meditation is the way to feel the lasting self that exists beyond the more familiar cobbled and conceived self. Contemplation is the method for intentionally orchestrating the ever-changing, conceptual, functioning self.
Meditation is the way to feel the fullness of our interconnection with the flow of creation. Contemplation is the means to determine what goals and actions will best serve the whole.
Meditation lets us see our lives in an ever widening perspective. Contemplation is how we can focus on the nitty-gritty details of our lives.
Meditation dispels disconcerting thoughts and feelings. Contemplation is the venue to generate feelings and thoughts that create a sense of well being.
Meditation is the place to find equanimity with what is, as it is. Contemplation is the realm in which to dream a greater future.
Meditation gives one a sense of timelessness. Contemplation is the arena for laying out intelligent time lines.
Meditation generates the momentum. Contemplation steers the focus.
Yin and yang are not two separate things. They're two sides of one coin. They can not be divided, and only appear to be apart from each other. Meditation and contemplation should be seen and befriended as an inseparable couple.
When the stillness and vastness of meditation unite with the precise refinement and exacting direction of contemplation, we come to know the actual nature of our being and are intrinsically inspired to conduct our lives in the most loving, inclusive and harmonious manner.
