"Remain in the moment. Don’t fall back into the past and don’t jump ahead to the future. Remain in the moment, the moment that is occurring right now.
Live moment to moment. Die to the past and die to the future. Live here and now so that whatever you are doing becomes a meditation.
Meditation is an attitude not an activity, so whatever you do can become meditative. The so-called meditation that people go on doing is not meditation. It is the attitude of being in the present which is the core, the central, the essential thing.
Do whatever you are doing – walking on the street, running, taking a bath, eating, going to sleep, lying on the bed, relaxing – and remain with the activity totally. With no past, no future, remain in the present. It will be difficult in the beginning – very difficult and very arduous – but by and by you will get the feel of it and then a new door will open, a new realm.
So be aware. Don’t waste the present anymore. Live in the present. Live in the meditative quality of the present."
