I think that is really the whole meaning of meditation; it is the whole meaning of the Kingdom of God. It is the whole meaning of our life: to come home, to know really that we are already at home, to be at home with ourselves. You know how often and how deeply Father John spoke about meditation as the way in which we are first of all restored to ourselves, come back into touch with ourselves, so that we can move out beyond our narrow limitations to others and to God.
