Meditation brings people together. And the understanding of the Eucharist and and of meditation are really very similar. It’s the same dynamic of real presence, unconditional presence. We don’t have to be in a state of grace to meditate. Meditation, like the Eucharist, burns away your guilt. It burns away your feeling of being inadequate or unworthy. If you do it, if you can accept it. So the mantra is rather like the bread and wine. It is an an interior sacrament. And the sacrament is a living symbol that contains in itself, what it signifies. So it’s real. You see it externally, but at the same time, to really see it, or to really be present to it, is to experience what it is saying. What it is symbolizing. That’s the gift of all sacraments. It’s the gift of meditation and it’s the gift of the Eucharist. It is what it is.Â
