Meditation for the month:

Meditation is seeing What 'is'.
To see 'is' involves seeing 'is not'.
Seeing 'is' and 'is-not' is the vision of the whole.
Seeing is when the blind is desire-free.

Desire is always for the other.
The other is not-seeing.
And not-seeing is agitation.
Not-seeing is seeing what one projects.
What one projects is different from what 'is'.
Projection is an act of the desiring mind, and
non-projection is a state of non-desire.
A non-projecting mind is ever in meditation.
It alone sees. Others see not.

There seem to be two things -'is' and 'is-not'.
'Is-not' is never away from and adds nothing to 'is'.
Hence there is only 'is'. Meditation is seeing 'is'.
